1955 COE SWB weight
Hello,
I'm looking at possibly buying a 1955 COE (extremely...I mean this thing is really short!) short-wheel base truck with no bed. I'm trying to find out about ball-park of how much this truck weighs.
If I buy it, I'm looking at putting it on my trailer to tow it back, but I'm concerned it may be out of my trailer/trucks weight class. It's about 150 miles away from me, one way. The truck is simullar to pyramid head's C600 without the dump bed and the rear end is not a dually (only a single wheel on each side).
Until I can get the VIN info, I'm guessing it's a C500.
Thanks,
Jon

Unfortnetly, no. The hub was sticking out past the wheel, so it's possible it does have a dually read-end, but the outer set of wheels are gone.

Hello Disabled Vet, Welcome to FTE and Thank You for your service to this Country.
The Original poster has not been on the site since January 2009. Maybe he never followed through with purchasing the truck?? So I guess I can post a picture of a 54 COE with Really short wheelbase for you you.
Cheers
Josh
