COE double cab 6X6

[gordon]

I'm reasonably sure that's the standard radiator guard, and the radiator is where it should be - behind the sheet metal.

I've seen a few factory shots of this type in Fred Crismon's excellent "US MILITARY WHEELED VEHICLES" and I found one crew cab GMC searchlight truck in Scotland a while back, now melted.

I think only the extended cab GMC searchlight trucks made it out of the continental US, not aware of any exceptions to the rule that they were transport trucks too, and all 6 x 4 with no driven front axle for tactical work. Main uses were things like searchlights, cavalry, and the like.

Another relative would be the Ashby's WK60 COE Dodge 6 x 4, but that has the ordinary COE cab rather than the extended one. COE's were seen as being too high (visibilty-wise) for tactical trucks but fine for transport units.
