Vehicle Detail

1949 Dodge B-1-B "Pilothouse Era" 1/2 Ton Pickup Truck! Restored approximately 10 years ago. 218 C.I. REBUILT and recently tuned Flathead 6 cylinder engine runs like a sewing machine, 3 spd manual gearbox transitions flawlessly. Mechanically sound drives and rides like a low mileage 1940's pickup would have driven. You can drive this truck home no matter where you live.All gauges workOriginal umodified 6-volt systemNew ShocksNew Vacuum AdvanceNew DraglinkRecent COMPLETE tune-upNew WWW TiresSuspension super strong, truck sets and drives as it shouldManual SteeringManual BrakesFront End tightExhaust purrsRear End - Swapped with a newer Dodge Dakota. This truck was geared so low that highway driving was impractical. I kept the original which comes with the Truck.All sorts of extra parts, starter, generator, spotlight, Fenton Visor (COMPLETE and unpainted) as shown.Glass is perfectWipers workPeriod aftermarket turn signal Painted in Centauri DARK JADE GREEN with clear coat. This is a 10 year-old paint job. Excellent for a high-end driver, but not ready for MECUM. There are a couple of MINOR scratches, in addition to the 3 areas (Left Rear Fender - bubble); (Tail Gate - silver dollar sized rust spot); (Right Front Fender - paint cracked along seam). The Interior is redone using materials close to the original. The door panels, seat covers, and headliner were replaced/redone at the time of restoration. The Oak Wood Bed is solid. Still looks great, with MINOR age. Chasis, floors, underneath - no rust/rot, clean and an easy detail if that's the way you want to go. I have too much stuff and winter is coming with no room to store my truck. If it doesn't sell, its off to the self-storage units til spring. While I really don't need any more cars, boats, motorcycles, I could be tempted to work out a trade on a 1940's 2 door Buick Sedan. E-Mail me with questions. Truck is located in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin.
