Paint, interior and wiring are all being re-done. Maybe headlight placement also.

I thought 1939 was Chevy's first COE?????

 

For a very short time, (37-38?) the big three contracted with body manufacturers to build cab overs that were sold through the dealers. Ford used Dearborn, Dodge and Chevrolet used Montpellier. Montpellier used two different styles, one of their own design that was used on both Dodge and Chevrolet and also a style for each that mimicked the manufacturers conventional cabs. the one in post #5854 is the second style. The GM version in Oz was badged as an Oldsmobile.

 

And I have added 2 pics of an Aussie Oldsmobile COE below.

 

Well*****. Now I need an Oldsmobile COE. Thanks a lot fellas.

 

COE/Step Van/Milk Truck/1 ton (+) discussion will now be hosted on the social forums;

COE photo thread now moved to COE social group; http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...read-imported-from-main-board.997663/page-196

 

Guys, THIS SOCIAL GROUP does not have the same rules as the main HAMB board. It was created just FOR all of the COE stuff not allowed there. All of the builds and content in this group are safe....so post away!
Somebody tell Steve.........

My initial comment was about the loss of the picture thread on the HAMB, not here. Sorry for the confusion.

 

Test...

 

THANK YOU for saving this for us!!!!!!!

 

My apologies for it taking so long to get it moved...took some time to get it figured out. I'm going to step back and let you guys have fun...please feel free to PM me if you run into any issues.

 

Very good of you to save and move the topic to the social group.

 

Thank you very much .

 

No sweat, guys...glad we could make it work. Hope you'll find the social group to be a place where you can "let loose". That was a big part of the reason for the creation of the social groups and the migration of your area of interest over here...Again, purely editorial, never personal. Thanks for understanding!

 

Not certain exactly what happened, all I know I am now finally able to read posts again after a few days of getting notifications.

 

That's my fault; I didn't realize that the social group's settings were set to 'private' when I started moving stuff here. I tried to contact the group's creator, but he hasn't been around in the last 3 months, so I altered the settings to allow anyone to view/post. My apologies.

 

Let the good times roll!!!!!

 

Hey! This looks vaguely familiar.

 

everyone needs louvers on their desktop machine, right??

 

Nobody like a Show off (grin)

 

Here's some from GG AZ . More latter . Blue

 

Another one seen at G Guys Scottsdale

 

That swoopy bed is pretty cool...

 

One more , B-Bop wish I knew you were there . I would have found you . Blue

 

I'm on page 588 of TapaTalk & not a single pic has loaded for me.

 

Yeah, Blue, I just logged on this morning and saw you were there. Don't have a lot of internet access in the teardrop. Funny, I thought I saw every car on the grounds, but never saw your truck. Would have been nice to catch up first hand. Ran into Dagato and Daddio211 on the weekend. Cool to put faces to the names

 

I was next to my buddies diamond t and a 40 ford coupe . The DT had a 40 Indian mc in it .

 

Man had a heck of a time finding Cabovers on the forum. I think we are splitting hairs on this decision.
But here's an update on the Coe electric utility I found then lost.
Here it was moved to a honey hole nearby and inside an adjacent building just full of cab overs and other trucks and cars.
What a treat to be given a tour of the building yesterday. The electric utility runs with a new flathead in it.

 

Just got this one

 

Factory 4 wheel drive?
