This 1941 Ford COE truck is our BringATrailer auction pick of the day:
While the body of this cab-over-engine truck comes from a 1941 Ford, the flatbed is mostly Chevrolet underneath, with the cab mounted onto a"later model" one-ton Chevy frame, according to the listing. The engine also hails from Ford's crosstown rival, and the 454 Chevy big-block V-8 is fitted with an Edelbrock carburetor and intake manifold and is mated to a three-speed Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission that routes power to the rear wheels.
4-liter beast of an engine, which resides under a diamond-plate cover behind the cabin, should sound pretty epic.The Ford cab is also beautifully finished, painted in a pale green, and accented by an off-white trim piece that runs up the sides of the grille and beneath the windows. The truck is full of neat retro design cues, from the single yellow-tinted fog light to the split windshield and the stubby cab-over proportions that were more common on trucks of the 1940s and 1950s.
