Cannonball A tribute to the GMC COE

[lugger2010]

Y'know, when you look at it, the "Cannonball" was no less aerodynamic than the plastic junk they put out today.

just been rig moving with a 1953 peterbilt suck truck; try and beat that in the northern territory AU. Or USA anywhere!

Like to know the color of the Cannonball GMC Tractor? I know it was in B&W but if anyone can help please. I'm going to make one out of a Coca-Cola semi. Thanks.

@bigjob1950  -- your best guess -- believe the company, C&A Transport Co, LTD might have been made up -- can't find ANY reference online. There are pictures on FLIKR of this truck.

What great looking trucks, a bit spooky looking but loads of character!

[raginroadrunner]

This was when GM made real trucks..not like the crap they make today...their trucks are disgusting pieces of crap...
