Default GMC 9543 2-Ton truck

Not trying to muddle the water, but compare the Chevrolet 1542 with this 1940 "GMC 9543" 2-Ton truck at the Canadian War Museum.

GMC's could be described as being heavy duty Chevrolet's, the GMC engine is a different beast compared to the basic Chev engine , it is a more refined motor with, I believe, full pressure big ends.
