Just want to lead your attention to my new homepage.
www.all-automatic.dk/gmc/
It is only in danish for now but there is a lot of pictures. I will be glad to answer all questions you might have. :D

If you take a look at "køb og salg" (wantet/sale) and scroll downwards you will find some pictures from Norway. Its 2 GMC's on the way to the junkyard if someone do not pick them up. The owner askes 4.500 Nkr. for both. If it wasnt for the shipping costs I would buy them myselves. If anyone here is interested in some parts or one of the trucks, please let me know. Maybe we can work something out.

Best regards
Kim

Your Home Page is very good so far Its got great photo's, wish I could read all the text , It will be worth the wait to see it when you have converted it to english since It will be much longer before I will be able to read much Dutch. The other links you have look very interesting too.
Wish I could save the CCKW's but have my hands full just now . From the peek under the hood I d say the closed cab would be the better since it still has its carb in place .Great Job thanks for sharing

Hello Kim, You have a very nice homepage, and the truck is nice, too. I can read Danish maybe to 70% because we learn Swedish here at school. You wrote about fixing Your lights and brakes, our vehicle inspection is quite similar, so it made intresting reading. Sad to see those Norwegian trucks to rot in the woods and maybe face cutter's torch. I have a friend who could use a cargo bed and fuel tank, and I could use a Split truck's transfer case and maybe front axle, but the expensive freight might kill the deal. Is that open cab truck with Split axles? Where are they approximetely located in Norway? Please keep us updated on the fate of the vehicles.

Greetings, hilsning fra Finland, Arthur

Thanks everyone for your comments on my homepage. I will launch an English version sometime in the future. Re. the Norwegian trucks – they are still available. The open cab is split and the closed cab banjo as far as I’m informed. They are located near Trofors.

Regards
Kim
