Default Hmmm!

It appears to have a 1939 GMC radiator grille, but as it does not have "GENERAL MOTORS TRUCK" along the side of the engine cover it is probably in my opinion a GMC with Chevrolet 316 engine, with 4x4 Timken front axle, built in Pontiac Plant. I am not sure but I thought I could see "GMC" script at the top of the radiator grille..Chevrolets had "Chevrolet" script. In reality, it is a GMC with Chevrolet engine. Call it a "Chevrolet" and everyone knows what it is! Louis Chevrolet was of course Swiss-born! In other markets it would be a "GENERAL MOTORS TRUCK" with GMC engine.
