Overview of 1940 GMC A-Series For Sale by Owner

Cab Over Engine (COE), a very popular design model that has since predominantly disappeared from American vehicles but remains from restored and preserved classic automobiles such as this classic 1940 GMC COE pickup. Reportedly using a 1999 Firebird Formula frame, this completely redone vehicle is in impeccable condition, and is preserving the classic designs of yesteryear. A lot of upgrade had to be made to keep this vehicle as you see it today, but with reportedly being completely redone using new parts, including the braking system and engine, with reportedly less than 10,000 miles on the unit, this COE pickup is ready for you to enjoy and wow bystanders as you take to the streets and maybe even to shows.

Exterior and Interior

The COE design is definitely the highlight when it comes to this particular vehicle. With the engine sitting below the driver, this may be one of the most compact trucks you might see running on US roads today. Not only that, with the design language of the 40s when it came to automobiles, it might be one of the most unique on American roads today as well. With a silver and blue mix of colors, this vibrant pickup truck comes with chrome wheels and plenty of flair to maintain its style. Inside, this 1940 GMC COE pickup truck retains its barebones and simple aesthetic, while maintaining an updated and modern touch, with air conditioning and more. This includes a four-spoke steering wheel, modern dials and gauges, matching silver/blue seats that fit the aesthetic of the vehicle and look.

Engine

As comparatively compact as it may seem, this 1940 GMC COE pickup reportedly comes with an LS drivetrain and 5.7L massive V8 engine. This engine is reportedly an LS1 engine that the owner reports to only have less than 10,000 miles on it. To control this power, an automatic transmission system with a reported 3.73 gear ratio is being used. Rack and pinion steering as well as a completely new braking system which includes master cylinder, rotors, pads, calipers, lines and more have been introduced. Put this all together and you have an amazing classic that is ready to be welcomed to your garage and enjoy as well as preserve, for many years to come.
