Gary, what is a power giant = a big truck?

[thedahmer]

Bob- it is the premise of a power wagon- just in the 1954-1960 dodge pickup body style.

[Frank Elder]

I thought the power giant was 2 ton and bigger type farm truck/commercial application?

power giant is a series, same as job-rated and pilothouse was...I have an early 58 power giant here..it is one of the single headlight versions instead of the ever more common dual headlights most always seen or advertized

Reg- the top picture looks like it even has the roof mounted radio! that is a pretty rare truck! Looks nice- I am looking for one in the 4x4 configuration-

It does. It's a MoPar model 700. Man,I saw one on eBay a while ago for a fortune. The hood ornament is a rare item too. I got lucky.
