The GMC CCKW is a 2.5 ton 6X6 U.S. Army cargo vehicle that saw solution in World War II as well as the Korean War, also referred to as the "Deuce . 5" or "Jimmy". The CCKW found its option to several variations, good available or shut cab, longer Wheel Base (LWB 353) or Short Wheel Base (SWB 352). Initially all variations had been indeed of shut cab design (having a metal roof and doorways) along with steel cargo beds. But considering that the war progressed an open cab variation completed up being developed which had fixed “half doorways” and a canvas top/sides, using the steel rest being changed by a wood anyone to conserve steel. The timber rest proved unsatisfactory and a “composite” sleep with steel sides and framing however with wood slats the sleep was made. Afterwards the wood/steel composite rest have been changed by an all metal composite sleep.
