1946 Dodge Pick-up Truck. It is considered a pre-war body style though. The body has some rust, but is fairly reasonable for a 68 year old truck. The fenders are solid but look like they may have had dents hammered out of them, as they have many dimples in them. The windshield is cracked, and the windshield frame is rotted pretty well, but the crank out mechanism still works. The wood in the bed is rotten. The tailgate needs to be held on with a ratchet strap, as the bed sides tend to droop outwards. The rear window is fine, and both side windows are fine and crank up and down. The door latches work well. The interior is as plain as you could imagine. It has a bench seat, with naugahyde that is torn/cracking. It has wood panels over the battery box and around the shifter, and both are rotting. I'm not sure if any of the gauges work, but about 5 years ago I charged the battery and the headlights and gauge lights worked. The engine is a 6 cylinder flathead. The engine code starts with a "P" indicating it is from a Plymouth, but is does appear to be of the same year. 5 years ago I had it running, and drove it down the road. The clutch didn't slip, the tranny worked in all 3 forward and 1 reverse gear. The hydraulic brakes do not work, and I had to use the parking brake to slow down. The accelerator pump in the carb was shot, so it took some feathering of the throttle to move it. I haven't attempted to revive it since that day, so the current running condition I am stating as not running. When I had it running, the generator was charging fine. This vehicle is being sold AS-IS, and it's old so expect there to be things wrong with it. This truck is also for sale locally, so this auction may be canceled at any time. No delivery of this truck is included, as the buyer is responsible for pick-up/transport. A $500 deposit will be required, and the remainder of the balance will be due before the truck leaves the premises.
