shopnut Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) [ATTACH=CONFIG]80339[/ATTACH]The stake posts on this cargo body are steel, I think they could be from the 'M' series truck? Anyone agree with this as I have not seen on a CCKW before, stake posts are normally made out of wood.

Degsy Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I can't view the image but yes CCKW stakes are normally wood, I don't remember ever seeing metal ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Cubed Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Don't forget the supports for the slats and seats are steel and then the hood bow legs slide inside those which are in turn inside the bed side pockets !! But without the pic I don't know what I am on about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But without the pic I don't know what I am on about Thanks, will try again and upload a picture, it becomes very clear then, I am fairly certain the metal posts are from the M35 series of trucks, if they are, there could be a set for sale.

Can`t see picture either , but early GMC , Chev`s had the side stakes from steel , and top wood . later it went on to be 3 pieces wood and 2 metal corners . M series trucks also had wooden stakes.
