I have attached a photo of the data plate from the firewall of my 1940 DeSoto Businessman's Coupe. Does anyone know how to decode this? What do the letters and numbers mean? Just in case I messed up while trying to attach the photo, the codes are: S7CC-1375
307-903
Job No: 32-848
Trying to learn what I can about this car. Still looking for window cranks for it if anyone has some. Might be nice to have some extra door handles as well if I can find some.

I gooled images for the 1940 S-7 Business Coupe's and saw many of
the ones shown have the cars appearing wih White Walled Tires and a
"Clear Coat" Paint.
Many of them were not much of a Sales Person's Company Car.
Contact the 1940 De Soto Technolical Advisor Volunteer to ask your information.
