Welcome to Dodge. You certainly picked a very rare one to start with.

There were only 30 WC-20's built and they were built in 1941. The engineering code is T-211. The WC-20 was produced as a closed cab with no body. It shared the longer 123 inch wheelbase with the 1/2 ton ambulance. It had dual rear wheels. After leaving the factory, the WC-20's were equipped with Emergency Repair Bodies. My references do not indicate if those bodies were installed by the Special Equipment Group or by the Quartermaster Corps after delivery to the Army. If you have the original body, your WC-20 is exceedingly rare. By the way, the correct body will have a data plate.

From SNL G-657...

All T-211 vehicles had civilian dashboards. Although many of the earlier 1/2 ton military Dodges used the civilian crank type windshield regulators, the SNL G-657 lists the military style windshield adjusting arms and associated hardware for the T-211 trucks.
