    As in 1937, all Oldsmobile trucks used a 230ci side valve engine (same as the passenger car line).  A 4 speed non-syncro transmission was used on all models except the smallest offering (the C-122) which was fitted with a 3 speed syncromesh trans.  The model line consisted of the C-122 (5,800 lb gross), C-133 (12,300 lb gross), C-157 (12,300 lb gross) and the F-155-H (17,000 lb gross).  All models were Conventional steer except for the F-155-H being a Forward Control design.
