The Closed Cab was designed with a slopped hood to aid driver visibility, that idea all went to heck with the OpenCap, even the tallest CCKW Open Cab drivers did not have a view over the hood.
If you weigh less than 150#, the ride in the Closed Cab CCKW can be quite bouncy.

Joel, at 6' 1" I have a good view over the hood of our open cab CCKW, but you are right my 200 lbs plus keeps me in the seat!

I don't know what it's like to be 6' 1", wish I did.

Not to bad! Small cars are a pain, usually back trouble after a few years , best wishes. Gordon

Still remember you Conn and your CCKW project.

Thank you Joel, our truck does the 4th of July parade ,Youngs dairy show , local airport show and a few car shows . We don't travel very far because of the 38 mph top speed ( don't mind the speed ,just don't like slowing up traffic and being a big target ) , will try to post picture but no teenagers here anymore to give tec help.

Maybe some day Conn will finish his CCKW that he and his son started.
