This 1948 Dodge Power Wagon built on a 1971 F-250 4x4. It was built originally in the mid 1980's by a family friend who drove it for a little while then parked and forgot about it. I purchased the truck in 2005 and redid all the mechanicals and gave it a face lift with new paint, upholstered the seat and new VDO gages.
As for the mechanicals I:
* Rebuilt the motor
* Installed a new 550 Edelbrock 4 barrel carburetor
* Custom built a 4 core aluminum radiator to help compensate for the large Ford 390 in a small space
* Installed a new Ron Francis wiring harness
* Put in all new gaskets and window rubber
* Rebuilt front-end and drive lines
* Refinished the oak bed and stake sides. The bed has stainless steel strips.
* Installed a class 3 towing hitch with a 7 way trailer plug.
* Rebuilt all brakes
* Replaced all steering linkage
* New dual exhaust with flow thru mufflers
* New 10 ply tires on aluminum wheels
In the cab of the truck there is a CD player and it is wired for XM satellite radio. The running boards are dual saddle tanks which is kind of unique.
T
he things I never got around to was painting the front bumper, rebuilding the winch and installing the sending units in the fuels tanks.
I'm asking $17,000 or OBO or trade for a pre-1950's panel truck or all original pre-1950's Dodge Power Wagon.
