My brothers Dodge finally out in daylight after years of work. He is using my workshop for his project. I have plenty of space.

<font color="blue"> is that the original color ? </font>
Yes, mixed as close as he could after the original.
Old truckers here says that Dodge was expensive, but that you needed 2 Fords or Chevys to outlast one Dodge!

Very, very nice! I really like old trucks. I have a 1949 Ford F6 that the boys and I will tear into this fall. It should be an easy restore, it has 12,000 original miles, but the last 15 years it's been outside, (minor rust issues on the front fenders).

Wow! What a sweetie!

I never realized they sold Dodge trucks in Europe in the '40's!

What a well kept truck.

Flathead six and engine compartment that's not filled to the brim. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

How well does the heater work?
