Haha...GMC CCKW is ...as is the Dodge WC.....NO side valver. WC being powered between 80 and 92 HP, whereas GMC has 104 HP. But that must not mean something.
@@shandfan Most trucks in civilian use was used up, modified with diesels its difficult to get parts for, lengthen the frame etc but the Norwegian army had the trucks on a Lend- lease contract in case of ww3 so they where stored and maintained until they where sold of in the 90s. I even have one with most of the original ww2 tires still on it.
@@Dieselolds Haha,our messages crossed each other! 91,5HP? Was it just like the different HPdata's of the WC??? (depending on their transmission?) By the way.....speaking about the engines....it take it,that the heaviest ex army trucks ONLY became (1943?) a diesel, instead of their original Hercules or Continental petrol/gasoline engines????? I mean......Diamond T got a Hercules diesel,WardlaFrance a Cummins,the same for the biggest Federal(also Cummins iso their original Continental) ???????? After WW2 you could still for a long time encounter lots of COE Ford F60s.(95 HP)
Hei. Takk for komentaren. Ja det er en industrimotor, ble også brukt i endel personbiler og industrimaskiner fra tidlig 30tallet og tilogmed helt opp til 1972 (hevdes det) med høyere effekt. Det gjør også at deletilgangen er stor.
Barefoot?? I have never driven any car barefoot, the closest this is that i usualy drives my Oldsmobile in my socks on long trips. The Dodge is i cold hard car made to be driven with army boots. But thank you for the comment.
@@Dieselolds Course there're differences,e.g. Dodge has flathead(side valves) and GMC not.Also Continental gas engines had head valves.Question of evolution? Not understanding,why GMC 6x6 has double wheels at the 2 rear axels and the Dodge 6x6 NOT???????Could you tell me??
@@shandfan The Dodge engine is a older construction than the GMC engine with head valves. Yes the Dodge 6x6 have wider tires than the GMC so it manages the military offroad capability demands at the time without dual wheels. The GMC has 7.50 wide tires but the Dodge has 9.00. The Dodge 6x6 also have lower weight and load capacity.
@@Dieselolds Great thanks.You know...have been reading several times that GMC CCKW has a power of 104 HP (PS/PK)whereas the Dodge WC ...err..well......how to put it.....had different powers,which depends on the weight of the mutual different types,which means round 80 till 92 HP.Would all this be all right,what I'm telling you?? I'm struck by the relatively low powers of the big truchs,such as DiamondT,WLF,and Federal.They all are round 130 HP ????Guess,they are not able to high speeds.???
@@shandfan The CCKW has 91,5 HP@ 2750 rpm controlled by a rev limiter, so the top speed is only 72 kph. The reason for low power is soldiers usually drives like mad and the throttle is either on or off so slow speed and low power is a easy way to make them safer, use less fuel and give the engine a chance to live a little longer. The Dodge is 92HP@ 3600 rpm and a limited speed of 90kph. Today the Norwegian army uses MB Gelanderwagen with 72HP @ 4400 rpm.

Oldie but goodie, I have to say! That is the smoothest running easiest starting engine I have ever seen! Thank you for sharing!
Yes its a lot of fun to maintain a old warrior. I got my first military truck at age 13, it was a GMC CCKW and i learned a lot of mecanic on it.
Haha...GMC CCKW is ...as is the Dodge WC.....NO side valver. WC being powered between 80 and 92 HP, whereas GMC has 104 HP. But that must not mean something.
@@shandfan The CCKW is much bigger truck and has a GM "Stovebolt" 270 CID top valve engine at 91,5 HP
In Holland many of the WW2 ex army GMC's were later provided with Perkins or even Henschel diesels.(for obv.reasons)

I have the same engine & carb setup, great clip!
Thanks 4 Sharing,

aww Love that sound :D
Thats amazing. This one has only been in the family 14 years now.
If you take care of a car like this and dont abuse it it will last forever.
Thank you for the comment.
Thank you.
The trick is to use the car every day so the carb dont dry out.
Lovely sound!
I know... But sometimes its fun...
The trick is to move a little on the car when turning the steering wheel, saves both power and stering gears.
@Evalvproductions i think its close to 210CM / 83inch wide.

You should bring it to the October 2022 Great Smoky Mountain Convoy. See HISTORY in MOTION magazine of the Military Vehicle Preservation Association.
@willyslancs Sure the Willys last forever if you take care of it and be careful not to rev the engine. Is it a Willys or GPW?
no they dont.... 1 more thing not to fail.LOL
The steering is heavy in citydriving but ok on open roads.
No its a straigt 6 w/sidevalves.
A 3 cylinder dosnt run as smooth as a inline 6. But anyways, thank you for commenting on my video.
@921VORON Thank you for comment.
good truck!
yea steering one of those is a pain
its only a 3 cilinder??? wow my M38 is a 4

Dodge WC is NOT second,but equal to GMC CCKW.👍👍👍👍
Totally different truck but just as great in its way. Have a few CCKWs too, would a video be of interest?
