Ive been waiting this truck out for almost 3 years and today was the day. A good friend of mine has had this in his barn for over 20 years. Before that it was in another fellas barn for another 20. 1946 Dodge WC 1/2 ton, solid, no rust, ex electricians service truck. All that should be needed to get it going is a carb rebuild, clean the points and maybe a couple other basics. Missing one original hubcap, it may still be in the barn though. What a survivor:)

Great looking pickup. They are really hard to find especially in that condition.
I would change a thing outside.
If you ever want to flip it give me a shout.
 
Thanks. Im not touching a thing:) Yeah I dont know why somebody did that to the tailgate, its as perfect and solid as can be without it.
 
40 years in the barn is what saved that truck, looks great from here. IRPops can give you some pointers on getting rid of the six and putting a potent small block Mopar in it!
 
Bamamav......... I appreciate the heads up but this trucks a time capsule, their only this way once its gonna stay the way it is, get it mechanically sound, replace the glass, tires etc and enjoy the ride:)
 
Man that was a great score!! It's all about contacts.. gotta be ready to move when the opportunity arises... Great Truck man....[cl [P
