COE COE Picture thread (imported from main board)

thanks for the positive comments. thanks for the offer johnny but i don't know what colors, i have trouble picking. the truck is all steel. i have a build thread in the c.o.e. group section. picked up the metal to start on the deck skirting, i'm going with the 46-47 ford pick-up rear teardrop style fenders because i like the style and have a pair. i've done lots of custom changes but want to keep it as utilitarian as posible.

 

OK.....now I'm OFFICIALLY JELOUS!!!!!!! ^^^^

 

Thats nice art!, Trying a simlar build with mine, got some 40s hudson rear fenders to go on and am now back on finishing the chop after a 3 year gap but think the screen is right now,

 

And now one that is just plain Fugly, found this one on a website. Had to post for a laugh or two.

 

killer chop moon!

 

Moon, that chop is great, how many inches did you take out of it?

 

Saw this ad on eBay this AM. I am not related to it in any way. Thought it might make an interesting chassis for a COE:

I'm wishing that I could find one that I could afford... I'd trade my fifty chevy for one... the search contiues

 

All of these can be found on this website for sale.... http://antiquetrucks4sale.com/

**These are not my trucks...do not know the seller personally either**

Where are you located? I have access to a 47 Dodge, 38 Chev, 55 Chev, 56 GMC, 51 Karrier, chopped and channeled 51 IHC and soon maybe a few more.

 

Real happy you like it, I like cartoon type things so took 5" out the back and about 61/2" out the front, at the same time takeing around 3" less out of the screen surround then rakeing the pillars too suit, that was the plan from the start as I wanted it like a 36 ford 3 window coupe type look, I just hope it looks ok when its all together, moon

 

Looks real good so far!

 

HEADS UP.
a 1.5 ton moterhome GMC chassis from a 25 ft vehicle can be had in DFW for $150, I measured the track width and sadly its "77 and my 39 1506 uses the "70 track width. hes gonna be demolishing the body next weekend for the aluminum. its a 78 midas winnebago in Collyville tx, vince is the guy on c-list. This might work for the 48-55 advance desigh body style-prolly got a spare 3.5 inches in those fenders!

 

62 metro

 

Neat, what's the story on the Metro?

 

Here is an old Harry Bradley drawing from the pages of Street Rodder Feb-99. Pex, you can borrow my plasma wacker and get rid of your roof for all those sunny Alberta days.

 

That looks like one of the old IH metro delivery COE's from the late 30's and early 40's. I'd see them doing Western Parcel Express work in the San Diego area in WWII.

We have a '78 mack firetruck on that chassis. It still runs fine after more than 40 years.

Good idea. can someone coach me to upload existing photo's I have of some of my COE photo's? I'm an old guy and am even challenged to get my email. Thanks. I have four good photo's. One is a 1940 GMC COE fire engine I had my first firefighter job on in 1950.
