I don't think '39-'47 either.


'37 GMC T-18 w/ DD 4-53T, RTO-610, 6231 aux., '95 GMC running gear, full disc brakes, power steering, 22.5 wheels and tires.
'47 GMC 1 ton w/ 302, NP-540, 4wd, full width Blazer front axle.
'54 GMC 630 w/ 503 gasser, 5 speed, ex fire truck, shortened WB 4', install 8' bed.
'55 GMC 370 w/270, 420 4 speed, grain, dump bed truck from ND. Works OK.

The answer to the question is YES, there were COE's made with GVW below 11,000 pounds. The 1939 for example could be as low as 7700 pounds when running single rear wheels.

Some have taken a Suburban and added a COE front clip, done correctly, makes a nice job. I was going to do a '41 to '46, however, other things got in the way, sold the trucks.

Couldn't you just register it for a lesser weight in the states, then import it?
