Plymouth Trucks

[DakotaFrank]

I hope this topic is okay for this forum.  What years, and where were Plymouth trucks sold.  I occasionally see Plymouth trucks from the 30’s - 40’s online.  Did these continue into the 50’s - 60’s?  Thanks.

Yes they are certainly allowed. They were made 37-41. The 37-38 are a little more unique as they followed the car styling compared to 39-41 which is basically a dodge with a different upper grill and tailgate.

 

I've got a basket case 40 stashed for a future project

Thanks!

A related question, were Desoto brand trucks sold in the US and/or Canada, or only for export, or made in other countries.

To the best of my knowledge, there was never a DeSoto branded truck sold in the US. For Canada I believe they used the Fargo branding.

Plymouth trucks also returned in the '80's with the Trailblazer, based on the Ramcharger, and a Plymouth (Arrow) version of the D50. Also, don't forget the Horizon TC3 based pickup truck. 

 

For reference I found this article. https://www.autos.ca/classic-cars/motoring-memories-plymouth-trucks-1937-1941-and-1974-1983/

I have a Chrysler truck that is even smaller than the Plymouth Arrow. I didn't build it but it even had an article in Jalopnik about it.
