COE COE Picture thread (imported from main board)

Love that truck! what engine are you running? also what does the door logo say? thats really cool.

 

thanks! the round logo says "Timberline outfitters Don Tesitor"
454 / 700r4 / 3.73 posi

 

I used the stock Hydro-boost system from the 1 ton chassis my truck is mounted on. Takes up less space than a brake booster and works great.

 

Thanks a bunch Willybill for the boosting, you have a real cool website!

This is on Craigslist in Northern California.
1952 Autocar. I would love to have it but there is lots of cars I would love to have. I really like the way the driver enters the cab. Maybe one of you can buy it and take me for a ride?

What year is this?


Guy selling says its a 48? I was thinking early 40's ??

 

'39-'40 GMC, It was/is a diesel, you can tell because the hood has hinges on top and opens up.
Gasoline ones, the hood/nose was bolted on.

 

I jacked this picture from hudson48's
Yamba 2012 Australia thread.
Sweet!

 

A Commer. A popular truck in its day in Australia. You have to like the plates on it now.

 

Man there's some really amazing repro parts there. I wish someone out there could get a mold done of the 54 ford cabover fenders/step.

 

What do you plan on doing to the hood on your truck? I put mine back on all in one piece. This summer I changed engines and had to get to the radiator. I had the hood off about ten times and what a pain in the*****. About two weeks ago I took it off and drilled out all the spot welds making it a two piece unit. I am going to bend some tubing and weld it to the flanges to stiffen it up. I was worried about it loosing shape when I separated the halves but it is ok. I am using the bolts to hold it like original. I thought about some type of hinge and latch but the way the trim pieces are on it I think there would be a clearance problem. Just a FYI for ya. Keep up the good work.

Hey<SCRIPT type=text/javascript> vbmenu_register("postmenu_8345629", true); </SCRIPT> Bfreehill....your truck is turning out GREAT!!! Keep 'em coming!!



btw.....if anyone is interested, I finally put an album together that show the progression of my Hot-Rod Peterbilt project.
(I DID have a build thread started, but the mods killed it!!)

If everything keeps up the way it's been going, it autta be on the road this spring!!!

 

I have no connection to this truck or the person selling it...but at $1200, seems like a pretty fair price for a good start on the project.

i have to dis-agree with Flowmeister, I have never encountered a flip open nose 1506 gmc earlier than 45--and 48 was the last official production yr, But is a dealer still had one sitting-it was just****led as a 49, and most from 46 up were diesel semi tractors.

 

I entered my COE into Liquid wrench Tinkernation contest , I need Votes for my beast http://bit.ly/Y7YAFp also comments and sharing on the site, If this is against the rules please let me know ? If not I need all the help I can get THANK YOU fellow COE owners

 

I bought this 56 Ford COE today. Super solid truck, all the body parts are with it. I look forward to working on it. I am looking for a chasis to put it on. I haven't decided wether to make a hauler or pickup out of it. I'm thinking 1 ton duelley chasis with a****mins diesel. I will post more photos and we progress....

 

Done and good luck!

 

I know where a coe is in bedford, i'm gonna have to have to give that check now.

Thanks for the link. Some cool trucks there I have never seen before.....and a couple I don't want to see again!

You guys can't fool me, I know you'd all like one of those Scania "light trucks"....

 

Hard to choose a favorite from that list,
Damn good stuff there,,,

 

The silver and red Diamond T was talking to me...

 

That is actually a '39 GMC
Not sure why it got labeled a Diamond T
Not my truck or my pictures.
Love to have his chrome grill though!
