Cab ID

[USMC 00-08]

I saw this truck locally. Anyone know what kind of cab this is?

The emboss under the door window says Willys pickup to me.

WRONG! Read on, Jeff nailed it.

It looks like a 1940's Oshkosh from here. The windshield is unusual on both these cabs.

I'm not sure. That is the best I can do for a picture. Sorry.

Is that a G749 shock mount behind the front wheel? The front diff looks familiar.

From up here it looks like a G749 chassis, CCKW front clip, the 40's Oshkosh cab and you want it.

Any chance it has a 302 gas engine in it?

I wish I knew more info on it. I do want a CCKW at some point, but I would like to have something a lot more complete than this one. A fully restored one instead of a project would be a nice change up.

The L shaped angles on the out side of the frame look correct for the cckw spring are 2 inch wide with center at 27 inches . m211 springs are 2 1/2 wide at 32 inch centers . didn't some CCKW trucks have the M-211 looking axles? interesting find .
