Re: Loadmaster '47 COE

Thanks all, ran across some other trucks recently. For comparison: a stock 3100 AD and a 350 GMC with a 12 foot flat bed. The shorter nose was the big selling point for the COE, easier to park in the city. Hauling some rocks for the wife I've been putting the rear air bags to use.

Re: Loadmaster '47 COE

So I'm thinking of running a chain from the yoke to the drive shaft, do a little wiring a little fab and BINGO a twin engine LS powered COE. Starting a new project: '50 Olds Rocket 88.

Re: Loadmaster '47 COE

A 50 Olds will be a cool project! Hopefully you will post it up on alternate tinkering so so we can follow along Rob.

I know i am coming late to this party. I am on page 6(ish) of this thread. I just had to comment on this...

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! beautiful way to think outside the box.

I been wanting to build a COE for ages. i think SWMBO is onboard after showing her some of the trucks here and elsewhere.

Re: Loadmaster '47 COE

OK, so the '50 Olds project is on the road and running like a rapped ape. That being said I have found a new project which is appropriate for this forum, I will take some pictures when I go pick it up Monday. Hints: whats left of it will fit on the COE, it started life longer then the COE, It is newer the the COE, it has more windows then the COE. hmmm...what could it be?

Re: Loadmaster '47 COE

I am guessing based on your statement above and some of the things you have mentioned in this build thread.

Started longer than your COE, but is not any longer, longer than your COE now.

Newer than the COE.

And has more windows than the COE.

MY GUESS is: a travel trailer?

Figure maybe you found a crashed Airstream, hence the Started longer but no longer seems to be. and maybe you are gonna modify it to fit on the back of your COE?

Re: Loadmaster '47 COE

OK i'll give it up: More windows the my COE, 2 more, 5 window. Newer, 54 mine is a 47. Longer, had a 18 foot flatbed. Yep, it's another COE. Found this one in western Georgia. No major rust, clean and current paperwork. One issue I will need to deal with is it's missing a lot of small parts. It was taken apart by one person, sold to another and then me. All the major stuff is there and in solid shape. I'll post up tomorrow.

Re: Loadmaster '47 COE

I look forward to following along on the new one. I have always wanted a COE but your build makes me actively seek a COE of my own.
