Symbol on the door indicates use by the Sixth Service Command...Nice truck!!

The dataplate is going to be either on the dashboard (early trucks) or the header above the windshield (later trucks). Some trucks that went through depot rebuild will have the VIN number stamped on the top of the front frame rail; but most Chevy G506 trucks do not.

Just a word of warning... these trucks are notorious for snapping rear axle shafts. I've seen them wherre the longest rear shaft is twisted along its length, just like a candy cane I've also seen the spline end of the shaft snap clean off. Nothing for speed, but man they have the torque!

Aaron, you are correct about there being two "early " versions. The earliest model was the Y series, which still had the battery inside the cab. The next model was the Z series. This series had a number of changes inlcuding battery location, gauges, grill configuration, etc. Next was the N...

Aaron, are you also on the G503.com forums?? I think you will find that there is a lot more traffic on their 'Trucks 1/2 ton thru 2 ton' sub-forum. Lots of good information there about the G7105 and K-51 trucks, and also the rest of the G506 family of trucks... There are also a couple of good...

Head over to TM9-801.com They have searchable manuals and also a forum specifically for CCKWs and Chevys.

Trying to work a deal on a small trailer in Mansfield (PA or NY, not sure which yet). The seller is insisting on local pickup only, cash in hand. Trailer could be easily hauled in a pickup bed, or delivered to a trucking company if the MVPA rally is not in the cards. Thanks!

Hi, Hoping to purchase a Field stove (18in. x 24in. x 12in.), but the seller insists that it is "pickup only". Would easily fit in most car trunks, back seats, or pickup beds... Can not be picked up until after 11/17/2016. Delivery could be any time after, by arrangement. Could also meet...

Just wondering what you decided to do with this old girl. Please let me know if you start breaking her for parts...

You might try posting at the WW2 Dodge forum http://forum.ww2dodge.com/

Link works... dismiss the ad, and the pic underneath is of the truck in question, in the back lefthand corner.

I don't know of any salvage yards that will have what you're after, but suggest that you try John at http://midwestmilitary.net/ or the guys at http://vintagepowerwagons.com/ Either one should be able to hook you up.

Your profile leaves a lot to the imagination regarding your location. :D Did you pick this one up in southern Illinois? If not, I saw one very similar to this one listed recently. I believe I've heard it described as a photography trailer for the signal corps.

Midwest Military carries a lot of jeep parts too. Nice thing is that many of their parts have photos, so you can see the part before buying... www.midwestmilitary.net

Did I miss something?? What set off Silverstate55?? It looks like he took his toys and went home?

Scottie, That particular model of winch (Garwood 2-U-512) was used as a front mounted winch on WW2 2-1/2 ton (CCKW) GMC trucks, and 1-1/2 ton Chevy (G506) trucks. It might have had other uses too, but those are two that I'm sure of. My truck is a 1942 Chevy 1-1/2 ton w/ winch, and I have most...
