The lot features an original 1941-1942 GMC (General Motors Company) Series 400 pickup truck with a custom order short frame, dually axle and hydraulic hoist dump bed. The truck features a four speed with spring loaded locking reverse floor shifting transmission with two speed (low and high) rear end matted to a OHV Inline-6-cylinder engine. The engine is believed to be the original engine and is most likely a 248 CID 4.1L, 256 CID 4.2L, or a 270 CID 4.4L inline-six-cylinder engine. The truck runs and drives as it was in service up into this year. The truck shows the classic design of the 1930-1940’s with the large rolling fenders, horizontal slat grille, split front window, round flared headlights, the classic swooping “GMC” logo found at the top of the grille, long running boards and the Art Deco bold “GENERAL MOTORS TRUCK” lettering on each side of the hood. The truck shows good overall condition tires with little to no wear and much tread. The bed is a factory fabricated dump bed with wood stake sides manufactured by the St. Paul Hydraulic Hoist Co. Vertical and Underbody and features a Type 36 Hydraulic hoist that is No. H 888. Both the pump and bed are marked 888. The truck’s fuel cell has been converted to the side frame mounted tank as shown on the driver’s side. The truck shows the original Art Deco styling gauge cluster used in GMC only trucks from 1940-1946. The cluster showed 80 MPH, 12v fuel, 80 psi oil, 212 temp with long V8 tube, ammeter. The truck shows some wear, but appears to be in overall restorable condition. The truck is from the Burnt Leather Ranch in Paradise Valley, Montana and has been used as a ranch vehicle for many years where it was stored inside the barn.
