Hey guys,
I did some electrical work for a guy. Went to his shop 3 times or so. Got a decent look at his monster flatbed COE. It's a 1947 GMC COE. Pretty sure it's a 5 ton. I don't know much about them. It was his grandfathers truck bought new. He showed me the original title from '47. Also showed me a photo book of the restoration. Rebuilt engine, axles, brakes, etc. the flatbed is custom. It's beautiful. Guys 70+ year old machinist. he is interested in selling it. I told him I'd post about it here. Try to find out what it might be worth. I'll attach the only picture I have of it.Attachment 1556368 not sure why it's sideways.
Please give any info you have. Thank you!

He's positive it's a '47. I don't know anything about these. Any idea what something like this is worth? He said he'd like to trade for a small motorhome. Hoping it's worth around $20,000. Who knows. The interior is perfect. Not much to it!

its my mistake, I was incorrect. I guess only the 3 ton and lower coe changed in 41. a 47 5 ton gmc coe will definitely look like the one you posted.
