  1. yea thats what its got...1 piece solid windshield and 3 windows along the back of the cab (like the old advanced design 47-54 Chevys) I'll see if I can get a couple pictures scanned soon...I've got 3 or 4 at home I took with a throw-away camera. Now Ive just got to convince the original owner to sell it...
  2. i think ive got a 7.'5 stakebed 3/4 ton. Its got the 5 window cab, like some of the 45-54 advanced design Chevy's had. I didnt get a VIN# off it, and now its 500 miles away so i can't just go get it haha. Oh well, I'll be done with grad school in May, maybe I can go buy it afterwards. Who knows; I just hate seeing good old trucks rot
  3. Heres another pic of one close to what I have. This is NOT the truck, but one close to it: Notice the lights on the front fenders. It also has 3 or 5 smaller lights on top of the cab...can't remember. Which would be more rare? A big rear window cab or the 5-window cab?
  4. Thanks for the information guys...its really helpful. The guy who owns it said that his dad bought it new and its a factory stakebed or flatbed (whichever is correct) Ive seen pictures of it from the 1960's when it still looked really good and it had the flatbed. He was a mechanic at the Dodge dealer and he ordered it new...its been sitting in a field now for about 20 years. I know old trucks pretty well...I know its a '54, 1 piece windshield, and it does NOT have fender flares; its not a big pickup...3/4 ton at best. I dont recall how many lugs it has I found out that '54s 3/4 tons came with an optional 7.5' and 9' stake bed and I think that what I have is the 7.5'. I have since moved about 500 miles from the truck and I never wrote down the VIN # on it...hell I looked at it and took pics 5 or 6 times, I dont know why I didnt write down the VIN#...rrr! It does however have lights mounted on the front fenders and the top of the cab and the owner said that those were factory. Keep the replies coming guys! Y'all are great
  5. Hey guys and gals! Im new here and I need help. Im from Mississippi and I own a fully restored 1953 Chevy 1/2 ton. I know a guy who has a 1954 Dodge that his dad bought new and its been sitting in a field for about 20 years. Its still solid and could definetely be restored. Here's some stats: -titled as a 1954 -factory flatbed, single rear axle - not sure if its a 1/2 or 3/4 ton -241 V-8 - 3 speed -rear corner windows -factory light green/teal color (banner green) This is NOT the truck...its one just like it except for the flat bed Im wondering how rare this truck is. I know '54 was the first year for the V-8 and since its a factory flatbed, Im wondering how many were made. Can anyone help me? Im really having trouble finding information and replacement parts for this old truck and I know its worth saving. Thanks!
