Might try a GMC manual, pretty hard to find much on any old truck, big or
small before late 40's. Most of the p/ups just used the car manuals in 30=
's.
May have to look for some kind of "comercial" book. Go to www.motorbooks.=
com
(I think) for Motorbooks International, they have books on big trucks and
commercial stuff with lots of pix. For all brands in one book with a litt=
le
history maybe. Also check there list for shop manuals. Keep in mind the G=
MC
ones will have a diff engine, the trans and chassis should be about the s=
ame
OR, even the later 41 to 47 chassis for Chevs will be about the same for
the most part, same brakes, engine, driveline, etc. I'm curious, why woul=
