Nice work, shuan!

A device is everywhere seen for tubes of the loading platform, front mask,
fender, etc.
Since "GMC 6x6 2.5 Ton Truck" was indispensable to WW2, I also want to make.
However, since your work is wonderful, I'm satisfied.

Hi All,

As promised, I finished up my GMC truck and took pictures of it this weekend.

Interestingly, the DUKW amphibious vehicle was a GMC 6x6 truck of this sort
with a boat hull attached.

Thanks!
Shaun
