Looked all over the web and could not find a picture of one with the hood open. Does the whole cab tilt? Someone here must know. thanks, Pat Attached Images Best Regards, Pat

As stated floor panels were remove for engine access. 1941 was the first year for a alligator style hood on the medium duty GM COEs. GM didn't have a tilt cab until 1960. Collector Of Fine Old G.M.
