COOL a model like that is probably as close as most of us will get to one of those. They are pretty rare. I've seen a couple pictures of them but never one in real life.

Neat! I'd love to find a model of mine, but I just cannot seem to find anyone who's made or sells a '49 Dodge

Reg thats a cool panel. However his model looks more like a screen side.

[Reg Evans]

You are right Ed. No hump up over the back.

For those that don't know a screen side is kind of an odd combination of a panel and a pickup. The roof is all wood and finished on the inside like a panel. But instead of having steel sides after the doors its open and there's a box. Then there are screens that come down to attach to the top of the box to enclose the truck. They were intended for street side vendors to be able to open up to sell stuff and then close for traveling.
