If any one runs across a Dodge 1/2 ton panel truck in decent condition
that can be had for a reasonable price, I'm interested. Have trailer,
will travel!

This is what I'm thinking......

If I can find the guys number still a guy offered me one in Roswell New Mexico for $800 (I think) awhile back. The only reason I didn't get it was because my trailer was already full.
 
That would be kool

My thoughts exactly.


I'm looking for '47 or older but thanks for the thought.

You're looking for a pretty rare piece POPS.

Yes they are but I've seen a few around. Now if I can just find one now that
I am ready for it. If it's meant to be it will show up.

If you can find it and it's still available I'll be glad to pay a finders fee.
Let me know. That's even close.
 
I didn't think there was anything close to Roswell lol

I will see if I can find the guys number.

You're right there, You have to be going to Roswell to get there.
But at least it is within the state.

I really appreciate you taking the time to look for the guys number.
 
Here's a couple more nice panels. I really need to find one of these.

Also a real piece of work. Nothing you could do to make it close to kool.
The caption said they were made be Dodge and shipped to England and was for export only.

I found a pilot house style last week. Not what you want, I know. It's an hour away and I need to go in the evening so I can get the landlords number, hippy kid who answered the door knew less than nothing.
 
Weren't there two versions of the panel, the flat roof and the camel humped one? Or was that just on the earlier years? [S

I'm not a big fan of the pilot house front ends.
Thanks for keeping me in mind.

I don't have a clue Bama. I have seen a couple of the humped back ones.
After a little research looks like the humped back was made '36-'37.

'38 to '47 is what I want.

I always liked the humpback, it was what Schnitzer used to haul the dogs on Hogan's Heroes.
 
Went shopping today....

I found what I was looking for and it's only 80 miles from the house. Made a deal IF AND ONLY IF he gets the title in his name so he can then transfer it to me. Not in too bad shape. Nothing that can't be fixed for sure.
