It looks to be a 1937 model...
According to How Stuff Works...
Despite the success of the V-8, Ford was sometimes criticized for not
offering an "economy" engine. So in 1937, the company responded by
adding a radically downsized V-8.
Whereas the original (which continued) displaced 221 cubic inches and
produced 85 horsepower, the new V-8 was sized at just 136 cid with a
rating of 60 hp. While the difference in power between the two didn't
look like much on paper, in reality, the smaller engine was just too small,
and like the four-cylinder that preceded it, was soon dropped.
New styling that placed the headlights partially into the fenders graced
the 1937 car line, as shown on this 1937 Ford Sedan Delivery. Harder
to see is its split, vee'd windshield, another 1937 innovation.
The 1937 Ford Sedan Delivery interior enjoyed increased room, as the
newly available rear-mounted spare tire opened up space its cargo
compartment.
