Dodge trucks in magazine

[Guest Dave Claussen]

Just cracked the cover on my Vintage Truck magazine and there are a couple of Dodges in it. One story on a '35 Dodge KCL 1/2 ton long bed with some good pics. Also another story about an ongoing resto of a '47 WD-15. The classifieds have a couple of trucks for sale, too. A '46 with a box bed (looks like a 1 1/2 ton or bigger), and a '42 COE cab and chassis with a frozen flathead 6. Ad says it would make a good custom car hauler.

So far this magazine beats Classic Truck on the number of Dodge truck articles hands down. Lots of other interesting stories on a wide variety of makes of trucks. CT is really stuck on F**d and Ch**y. It's only evry other month but it's been worth the wait for every issue so far. Just my 2 1/2 cents worth.

Guess there's so many Dodge articles cuz the editor is the one restoring the WD-15.

Would really like to see more Pilot-House trucks though. Not that I'm prejudiced or anything.....

Anthony, I couldn't agree more, some PH's would be nice. By the way, what color is your truck? Is that a version of the popular "copper orange" color that I see on some present day cars and trucks? Looks nice. I've had that color in mind for my B3C when the time comes for paint. Dave

It's a Dodge color called Amberfire Pearlcoat.

In the October 2007 issue of Custom Classic Trucks there is restored B-2-B Deluxe cab featured on page 82 and a 1940 Plymouth 1/2 ton truck, in need of some TLC, on page 90.
