49 B1B Parts


'49 Dodge

Recommended Posts

Hello all! I am a new member grateful for the wealth of information about my truck! I am the proud owner of a 1949 Dodge half ton B1B. It is in very good condition, mostly original with almost no rust!

I have just finished rebuilding the brake system and she should be on the road next week after a good carb clean (it doesnt want to stay running off the choke). Anyway, I have a few questions if anyone can help and am looking for a few original parts. Im looking for an original seat (just the frame of it would be fine) and a set of running boards.

The person I bought the truck from gets an "A" for inventiveness as he built a battery box, a glove box, running boards, and a bed floor... from plywood. Yup, plywood. So my questions are, is there an original battery box or did the battery just sit on the floor board mounts? Also was there an actual glove box? (thats one part I cannot find!) Any help or resources would be greatly appreciated!
