interesting that several changes have been made to it, primarily from a '53: the D_O_D_G_E on the dash, the wiper knob, and the rear fenders in particular.

Yeah, who knows what else they did, or why, or when. Probably even more, if I knew about the details of the parts. I have gotten used to the fenders. I didn't know about the wiper knob nor the DODGE on the dash. Thanks.

'54 C1B. 1/2 ton. 

 

It's had a lot done to it in its past, some of it a little hacky. But overall it runs and drives well enough for an old truck. Needs some TLC, deleting some 1980's updating and a few things updated. 

 

Mods that I know have been done:

318LA with Eldebrock Performer intake and carb. 

727 3-speed tranny w/ floor shifter

Dana D35 rear-end with 3.07 gears

12V update

Painless rewire

Aftermarket air. This is crusty and needs to go. 

New gauges

 

Needs:

New rubber everywhere

Steering box seals (at least) 

Shocks

Suspension bushings

Brake rebuild or update

Speedo rebuild

Tach addition maybe

Fuel sender or wiring fix

Rear end seepage fix

Bed wood replacement

Interior

Minor body work

 

Funny that someone put engine upgrades on the 318, but put 3.07 gears in a D35. Guess they were looking for highway speeds and not burnouts. ? At least they stayed Mopar. Resized_Resized_20220516_203940(1).jpeg.6c16585bb9cc8ec55e9e40ede114555a.jpeg

Not my truck!  The new Buc-ee’s fuel station and store in Crossville, TN opened a few weeks ago and we stopped there to gas up and see inside.  My wife got a couple of pictures of the 48-50 B-1/B-2 “product display”.  ?D846B493-3415-4BAC-9440-97C3BEDA49F0.jpeg.ea9852ff5d11d9375002624c51714532.jpeg

My daughter had a photo session for her senior (highschool) pictures today, and she asked if she could use the '46 WC for some of her pictures.  I was actually surprised she asked, but it sure did make me happpy ! ?Anyway, while she was taking some other pictures, I took the opportunity to snap a couple pics of the truck with my cell phone.
