JTFormula Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Found this cool 1940 GMC truck with 5th wheel on Craigslist. $1500 just add your drivetrain. I have a rebuilt Chevy 305 in my garage. It would cool to pair that up with an automatic and make a fun hobby rig and tow a gooseneck car trailer with it. http://hudsonvalley.craigslist.org/cto/3242269992.html Quote ~ JT Burkard ~ AKA Sweaty Mackwww.jtresto.com www.wickedreputation.netwww.jonathanthomasmotorcars.com Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27789-1940-gmc-5th-wheel-tractor/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think a nice Cummins with a 6 speed out of a Dodge 3500 would fit right in there, any way you skin this one, it still would make a cool runner!!BULLHUSK Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27789-1940-gmc-5th-wheel-tractor/#findComment-141467 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTFormula Posted October 13, 2012 Author Share Posted October 13, 2012 Funny thing is I went on Craigslist auto parts right after to find a Chevy granny low 4spd and found a guy with a 12v Cummings for sale with a 5 spd.

Speed Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 That'd be really cool with the Cummins and 5 speed. I'd given that combo a lot of thought for my '57 GMC dump truck before I decided to sell it. It'd work out great for a truck like that,especially with a little "tuning".
