Hello,

 

Just picked up an intact 1950 1/2 ton. Mostly original with 218 and 3 speed on column. Body, except tailgate, really solid and straight. Runs great, but like anything that age it will need some work. Looking forward to working on it. I've always loved the old Dodge trucks and flat head engines.

Gonna leave as is for now. Have some other projects to finish. Would like to clean up and paint down the road.

Hello,

 

Thanks!  It has a radio, but tubes are blown and I've not got around to fixing.  It also has 2 visors.
