road warrior truck- just flat black it

 

I think it's a construct. The split window cab does not match with the later styling of the other front end body parts. It's like 1949 meets 1958 as well as crossing other boundries.

 

I take it back, I saw this on another website that says it's a 1950 GMC 650 semi tractor. Aparrently they used the same basic grille design up into 1957 with a few minor modifications

 

With those front hubs and rough tires it looks like a NAPCO 4wd conversion.

 

that nose was only on the 55-59 versions, the 54 and older was different with the same cab.

I have wanted one of those noses to hang on my living room wall forever!

 

My dad had the earlier 900 series...

 

That's actually a GMC "Fat Cab" 860 series. The 860's were produced from 1955-'59, & were the only GMC truck series that utilized the late front end, with the early cab. All the other 700, 800, & 900 series GMC "Fat Cab" trucks used the older front end. The GMC "Cannonballs" were the '50-'59 "Fat Cab" COE's.

 

Not a COE but close enough.....

Not close at all. It's a standard big truck

 

Damn... that was hard to watch when it revved up like that... the reactions were priceless!

 

found one this week at a fire department,they had a big water tank on it and it has a diesel motor
any idea what these are???
11,000 miles on the fire department one and they do not even know its history excepr they bought it new,they also do not know what its worth nor do I

anybody know what diesels were in these????

their chassis was built by a wisconsin fire truck company and is a tandem axle straight truck

 

Post a photo please as that may help.

 

Was the body a Pierce? If so they are still around and supposedly keep extensive records on all their builds, including chassis info.

 

how about this coe

 

i want one....no i want a whole yard full of em

 

Where to order a fleet of em.
Wow Tom where did you see that?

 

GM should have built that!

They also should have made this one production because it would have sold!

 

Hey guys, stop putting ideas in my head!!! Now I want to build one of those!
The Buick based one is a knockout......any more pics?

 

Buick is a photoshop

 

That Buick should be built!

 

yes a paul pierz or something like that,will get the company to loook up what the drivetrain is.

going to go try toget it tommorrow and look at a couple other firetrucks that area firemen know about

will post photo next weekend as am on vacation ,you know the kind where you go ,so when the kids are busy each day you get out your list of cars and trucks and get out of their hair.

 

If it"s this company, you should be able to get engine, trans, axle ratios,weight limits, or anything else pertaining to the chassis. May even have some spare parts.

Could someone that owns a 1938 to 1947 Ford COE measure the width of the inside of the cab between the doors for me? I found a nice pair of seats I'd like use in my 1940 COE if they'll fit once I get it moved down here to Arizona.

I have an extra chassis that is a good one for a COE for sale that's located in South Dakota.
Its a 1974 Chevrolet C-3500 Crew Cab Dually with the big Dana 70 HD rear end for just $500.​

 

Seen locally...

 

My homie's two COE's and bus.

 

Needs a pink visor

 

here's what a Cannonball GMC looks like...

 

From door jamb to door jamb
At floor 59.5"
window height 60"
near the roof 56.5"

 

Now thats a project. The urban****ault vehicle!
