Actually it's a 1940-45 Gimmy AFKWX long wheelbase 2.5 ton 6x6 transport truck, it would have had a 14ft standard military cargo bed like the CCKW models This particular model (X) is rare normally the AFKW was a short wheelbase usually with a fifth wheel and used as a truck tractor.It would be a good piece of history to preserbe, it actually was an open cab with a flat dual windshield frame, They were also used as pontoon bridge transports. Neat truck! It had the GMC 270-6cyl (easy to find) And the bed off any ww2 CCKW would be correct (also fairly easy to find)I wish it was closer and I had a big enough trailer!
