COE COE Picture thread (imported from main board)

Hard to tell how far forward the engine is of the rear axle... I think the C5 transaxle might allow this setup..

 

Start em young..........chicks dig COE's

More than one guy on the planet with good taste eh Rick?
Its from the land down under. Notice steering wheel on the wrong side.
And the second color looks more like champagne and not white.

 

Yeah! haha...
I noticed the champagne color, my wife said "Hey the top color is the same as Buford's donor Corvette". I didn't notice the RHD.
The thing is just gorgeous. The way the sleeper transitions the roundy cab to the squarey bed really works. Even the modern-ish rear fenders flow quite nicely.
Thanks for posting it.

 

From Spokane show last summer

 

I would like to know where you found that image.

 

I found it in my computer HOTFR8. Hahaha, seriously it was in my COE picture file on my PC, I would have found it somewhere out on the Web a while back. I was sorting pics and thought I would share it with youz guyz

 

Here are a couple more if you liked that one. Wish I had some interior shots. I love everything about this truck.

 

Thank you. I can see why now I have not seen it before as it is in Western Australia. Nice looking rig.

 

One for Steve

 

Well, it's still winter here~~~

 

Thanks shopdawg, sure would love to have a pair of those unobtainium hubcaps. In 15 years I've seen one on Ebay and it looked like it had been run against a wall for at least a mile, they were letting it go cheap, only wanted $99 for it.

 

Cool photo off the vintage photos. Cooltruck fenders . Would look nice on you guys building COE short PU .

 

thats so cool, love the wheel covers.....

 

Those are really nice, tool box one side, gas tank access other side. Probably would work best for a fifth wheel bed, tough access for a conventional bed unless you could tilt it. But still kool.

 

Went back for a lustful look. Check out the sanders in front of the rear tires.

 

Seen at the Portland Roadster show. Not by me, but found on the web.

 

Wow, lots of bling! Very nice.

 

I notice a manual/power cab jack in front of the fuel tank, then lots of other hydraulics under the bed, wouldn't think all of it would be for the bed, cab must tilt also.

 

Miss this one.

 

Not a COE exactly but had to share this.
When men were men etc.

 

Looks like an AC Mack.

 

Back when men were men and they walked bow-legged. (and sheep ran scared)
Wonder how the traction was with steel wheels on green logs. Hope the poor******** didn't have to go down any steep hills.

 

That's very cool... I wonder if the drive wheels had some sort of cleats...

 

Car Hauler Material?

Seen on the net ,I would love to find one. 37 OLDS

 

They were available in Australia

http://www.oldsmobileinaustralia.info/37trkhist.html

The 1937 model year marked the introduction of the "Forward Control" series of Oldsmobile trucks. This series used the same basic Oldsmobile 230ci side valve engine as the conventional truck but was made available in a 3 ton (13,000lb) and 4 ton (16,650lb) version. Wheel base for the 3 ton was 130" while the 4 ton was increased to 155". The 4 ton was equipped with a 2 speed rear axle, vacuum****isted brakes and larger 7.50 x 20" tyres (6.50 x 20" for the 3 ton).

 

They were available in other countries as well, cos that ain't no Aussie License plate !!!!
