1951-1968 Power Wagon (not including the first 600 or so of 1951 production)
1948-1971 2wd and conventional cab 4wd utiline bed trucks with Dodge stamped three hinge tailgate which includes:
1959 to 1971 6 1/2 foot beds
1948 to 1965 1/2 7 1/2 foot beds
1965 1/2 to 1971 8 foot beds
1948-1971 9 foot beds
The 1948-1958 6 1/2 foot beds use a narrower 2 hinge tailgate that won't fit.
The 1946-1950 Power Wagon tailgate should fit, but it isn't the right style for a 1954 C1 bed.
1972-1985 utiline tailgates will fit and look fine, except they lack the embossed Dodge lettering.
