  1. Thanks again for all the info. If I do get one it'll be a closed cab as I prefer the look . Also like the look of the Dodge ambulance and this would be a more useable vehicle . Don't think I'll be getting a Jeep due to high prices even for a resto project. Lots of interesting vehicles out there so good chance I'll get something
  2. Just had a look and joined CCKW forum and I've sent for the book GMC CCKW in US service so hope I'll get better idea of what I'll do. Thanks agai
  3. Thanks for all the info. What a friendly helpful bunch . As my garage door is 7'6" then I should be ok with no rear cover or hoops , thanks for that Degby . David I'm going to be in Inverness on Friday 6th November and most of Saturday so if it's ok with you I would love to see the cckw close up , not just one but two !! I would really appreciate that as it will tell me all I need to know
  4. Thanks parts info is very useful. I've never owned a ww2 military vehicle of any kind but hopefully I'll get a GMC if it'll fit in my garage
  5. Thanks for the info. I'll be at my garage tomorrow to measure up. Forgot to ask what's best type of axles as I read that there are 2 types and one is better than the other . Also any info on what to look out for would be appreciated. I'm only interested in the early hard cab with no turret or winch.
  6. Hello to all. Can anyone tell me the total lengh, width and hight of the GMC CCKW 352 short wheel base . Standard troop carrier with no winch or gun turret also same for the long wheel base 353. Im told they are very heavy on fuel with 6 or 7 MPG true or false ?? Dont suppose anyone in the far North of Scotland has one I could see to measure and drool over :-D Thanks Roddy
  7. Don't care what anyone thinks. I love this , really makes my Sunday night worthwhile. Would love to meet Bruce Hus and the twins as they come across as a friendly bunch. Hope they keep making the program
  8. Thanks for the welcome. No I dont have any military vehicles at present but if I could it would be a small lorry from WW2 or maybe just after. I have had Land-Rovers in the past 4 lightwights and a ser3 long wheel base.
  9. Hello. I am interested in WW2 vehicles from USA , UK and Germany. Roddy.
