1942 Dodge truck ½ ton model WC. This truck is in running condition and currently registered in California through July 2013. This is an example of a WWII issue ½ ton truck. It has four wheel drive, with one passenger side lock out hub. I think it is a Dualmatic hub. I have used it in 4WD, and it works fine. I think this has a two-speed transfer case. This truck also has a forward PTO that operates, but there is no winch. There is no spare tire, and there are no combat rims. There is a knock when idling, but when you push in the clutch pedal, it immediately goes away. I'm told that the throw-out bearing is making the noise. This truck also has a 12 volt 1970's used Mopar alternator with a new voltage regulator. Headlights, aftermarket tail and brake lights work. It has a pair of so-called black-out lights mounted next to the headlights, but I don't know if they work. Original 6 volt starter. Brakes are in fair condition, the master cylinder has been rebuilt.
I have driven this truck around town, but it really needs to be restored before I would call it a 'daily driver.' I need to make room for my 1952 Power Wagon, so this needs a new home.
There are rust issues in the cab, but it did live its life in California, so I don't think the rust is insurmountable. The windshield frame is no good, however. About half of the glass needs replacing or is missing. Driver's side door needs a lot of work.
I have clear California title to the truck, no DMV hassle. The truck is located in Zip Code 93631
The truck does not come with a bed, but I have some bed parts in decent condition from what I think came off a mid-1950's Pilot House Dodge. No rear fenders or deck, but all sides and tailgate. The bed parts are NOT included, but if you want them, they are for sale for an additional $500. I don't think they really go with this truck.
$1,900 or best offer.
