Our truck is a GMC CCKW 353 (long wheelbase) 6X6 that had been used on a farm as a lime spreader
for a long time, but is originally a H1 model or a "tipper" (having a steel dump bed). It was manufactured in Febuary
of 1945. It currently has a correct and rebuilt GMC 270 engine in it that we acquired from our donor truck...our CCW.
The 4X4 CCW was our donor truck which we acquired along with the CCKW, it originally
had an old fuel tank body on it and a decent GMC 270 engine which was rebuilt and transplanted to the CCKW. Other parts
we were able to acquire from this truck were several wheels and brackets along with it's rear end (which had been detached
from the CCKW).
