Jolly, I sure hate you lost interest, in the pre 1955 COE trucks. Man, I could only dream of, as much info., & pictures of COE's, as you have of the 60-66 trucks.

Spanky, I didn't really loss interest in those trucks, just found some thing I liked more. The Website I started is now part of ClassicCOE.com , and the Old COE Trucks group has grown to over 450 members now.

Yes I didn't have the info for those old COE trucks that I have found for the 1960-1966 GMC Trucks , but I did get something going for them onthe web, which has now been taken over by guys like you, which are much more an expert on those Old COEs then I every was.

So Spanky, did you get one of those Old COE CDs I did a few years ago?

Didn't GMC run some BIG inline sixes in their over-the-road tractors back in the early 50's? My uncle ran a big gas-engine tractor that had been retired from one of the local trucking companies back in the late 50's to haul the big boats he repaired. I can't remember much about it, other than it had a crash-box 4 or 5-speed trans and had to be double-clutched between every gear. It was a single-screw rig, with vacuum-over-hydraulic brakes, I think.

hay Jolly
do you have any info on the GMC 637 V8? seemed like your website was pretty sparse of info about the 637.
also what is the diffrence between a 305c and a 305e?
sorta a newfound interest in old gmc engines
wondering if I could fit a 478 in my 46 2 ton eek

I've been told the 637 cube V-8 is an IHC engine.And Mack offered a 707 6 cylinder gas engine,it it the same one GMC had?
6 cylinder gas engines were as large as 1000 cubic inches built by manufacturers like Continential before Diesels took over in the 50's
