'37 Chevrolet, '38 GMC cabover and '38 Ford.
All former Bud trucks.
'37 Chevy has GMC stake bed altered to fit.
I swapped box and stake beds on these.
I had to shorten the GMC frame for the right fit.
Also applied period correct Pepsi decals.
1938 "barrel nose" Ford is especially nice..
I also removed the bud logos.
I love those tiny hinges and hooks on this one, too.

I have the GMC COE but not the 37 Chevy or the 38 Ford. Don't remember why I passed on those but sorry I did.

@bob-jackman I totally missed the '38 Ford. I always wanted one model with that distinctive grill.
