1942 Dodge WC-21 Open Cab $9,500

This truck is a Dodge military 4X4 ½ ton truck. The truck had the brunt of the restoration done in the mid 90’s. During that time the body, bed, and the
complete chassis was cleaned, prepped, repaired, (where necessary) and repainted the correct olive luster less finish. At that time of it’s life the following was
done:

Brake system was totally rebuilt, new shoes match fitted to the drums, new wheel cylinders, new master cylinder, all hoses, return springs, and the
wheel bearings were packed and new seals and gaskets were installed. The emergency brake band replaced.
The engine had good oil pressure, didn’t over heat, and a good compression check. The engine was cleaned up, leaks repaired, and was repainted.
The clutch pressure plate, disc, and throwout bearing were replaced and the flywheel was resurfaced.

This truck is a very sound running, looking, stopping, and driving truck. You would not be ashamed to own this one. I would take it anywhere. The
odometer shows 24359 and the trip odometer even works. I have tons and tons of receipts totaling over 12,000 dollars.
I will sell for $9500.00 dollars or best offer.

The truck is in Chandler Arizona, suburb of Phoenix.
