Al Peterson Posted August 8, 2018 Report Posted August 8, 2018 I am new here and have noticed a disproportionate amount of B/C to W trucks. I have a WC and was wondering who else does? Where I live we don't have hardly any older Dodge trucks around, so I really am just starting to see and learn about Dodge trucks in general. I've also noticed a lot of similarities/carry over of W, B, and C's. ultimately I'd like to know who has a WC/WD. Sound off Quote
Merle Coggins Posted August 8, 2018 Report Posted August 8, 2018 The forum originated as Pilot-House.com forum, for B-series truck owners. And even in the beginning (when I got in anyway) there were some that owned older, or newer, trucks. As you have eluded to, there are many shared technologies, and yet many different ones too. As more and more early and later truck owners joined, the forum name was changed recently to represent all early Mopar trucks. One of the most active WC owners on here is Young Ed in Minneapolis. What part of MN are you in? Quote
Al Peterson Posted August 8, 2018 Author Report Posted August 8, 2018 I'm in Duluth, about 3 hours north. Quote
Merle Coggins Posted August 8, 2018 Report Posted August 8, 2018 Ah, yes... been there... Up Nort... Quote
Young Ed Posted August 9, 2018 Report Posted August 9, 2018 I was just up there myself at the end of July. We didn't do much in Duluth we went further up the shore hiking in a bunch of the state parks. Got far enough north my phone got confused and changed time zones on me! I have a 46 WC that is together and driving etc.. and a 47 WC that I am working on. I also have a 40 Plymouth truck that I am just collecting pieces for. 2 Quote
Al Peterson Posted August 9, 2018 Author Report Posted August 9, 2018 Where do you have room for all that stuff! LOL I'm glad to know I'm not the only one in MN! I was at Back to the Fifties and only saw one WC and one WD. We are a pretty small group! Quote

Al Peterson Posted August 9, 2018 Author Report Posted August 9, 2018 Really? Ugh, I was looking for inspiration when I went there but didn't find much. My truck was originally Red over Black but is now a nice patina. I actually live in Two Harbors, just north of Duluth. I'll have to take some more pictures, I posted a few a couple weeks ago in a different thread. 1 Quote
Young Ed Posted August 9, 2018 Report Posted August 9, 2018 Too bad I didn't know-we were just up there! Let me know if you end up in the metro. Welcome to stop over and talk trucks. 1 Quote
Moparman Posted August 9, 2018 Report Posted August 9, 2018 I own one of each 42 WC and a 48 Pilot House 2 Quote
48Dodger Posted August 10, 2018 Report Posted August 10, 2018 Been on the forum a long time as a 1950 PH dude (2007?)....but I do have a few 1.5 ton W series trucks as well as a 1946 COE I'm working on for the wife. 48D Quote
Pete Posted August 10, 2018 Report Posted August 10, 2018 Al, I drove my '38 Dodge Brothers pickup through Two Harbors when I moved from Southern Minnesota to Vermont. Beautiful area. Pete 1 Quote
