  1. My truck gets around 11 mpg, small engine, 213 cu.in., single Zenith carb.
  2. Several years ago we were in KY visiting a state park and a man and his wife ran the concession at a railroad crossing in the park and also lived there. We talked about an old truck that was parked on the entrance to the park and he told me that he and his father would go pickup abandoned vehicles in the area. He asked if I would like to see some them and of course I said sure! He had a warehouse next to his house and it was packed with trucks and cars that he and his father had gathered up. I asked about a 1926 GMC that he had if was interested in selling it and his answer was "no, I am going to restore all these myself". Of course that was never going to happen, these were all memories that he had of his father. They were all unique though and some maybe one of kind left.
  3. I have a 1957 Mack B-61 front end as living room art
  4. GMC used two different ornaments, one for the small trucks and one for the larger trucks, the small one had three lines behind the logo, the larger ones had two lines behind the logo and were brass instead of pot metal.
  5. The vehicle serial number is stamped on the passenger side of the frame rail by the spring hanger, that number should match the number on the vehicle data plate mounted on the inside of the fire wall. The truck looks to be a T-18 which would be the first three digits on the vehicle plate.
  6. First car I owned was a 1947 Jeep, had three shift sticks to play with.
  7. I have had mine for 20 years, restored. I have registry of about 15 other trucks in the US.
  8. I thought that i would chime in on this, attached is the water tube that Egge Machine has for the 1937 GMC/Olds 230 engine, part # WT5. as you can see it is longer than the one that phillpj posted. The GMC part manual has this as part # 408108, whereas the 1936 part # is 404158. Egge lists this at $77.50 plus shipping and It is galvanized steel. I don't know if it could be modified to fit. I have reached out to other GMC truck owners to see if they have one or a source.
  9. No I don't, I am asking for a friend and the piece that he has is a few shards of metal. the GMC part # is 404158 for the 213 engine.
  10. Looking for a water distribution tube for a 1936 Oldsmobile 213 L head engine Thanks,
  11. Looking for a lead for a 1935 GMC T18 radiator, something that could be re cored
