GMC CCKW: THIS WEBSITE CAN BE BEST VIEWED WITH WINDOWS INTERNET EXPLORER 6.0 OR HIGHER 1. Introduction Nice to meet you on this site dedicated to GMC trucks of the CCKW type. I guess most of you will associate the CCKW with the Second World War. However, my own memories go back to the fairground in front of the house where I was born in 1957. In the week ahead of every second weekend of August our village was visited by a couple of CCKW's transporting the showmen's materials. As a kid I fell in love with these trucks at first sight. This site provides information on the history and technical background of the CCKW, refers to more detailed sources, includes a data base of the over 260 miniature scale models, and allows you to enjoy my own collection in scales of 1/87 to 1/1. Graze as much as you like but do not copy anything (pictures, text, sound) without contacting me for permission to do so.
