Description

Up for sale is a 1947 Dodge Power Wagon WC62 which was built during WWII it has been converted from Military application to Civilian application with Civilian sheet metal cab and custom bed. I bought this truck from the owner in early 2013 and his vision was to update it as much as possible to modern day standards. After purchasing it I had it sent to Dan Minniger who owns Precision Power Wagon at that time it was stripped down to the frame and built as only Dan can do and the quality can be seen in the pictures. Dan finish the build in June and for the shake down cruise it was driven to California over the course of 4 days and arrived in time to take "Best Truck" at the California Dodge Power Wagon Rally held at Hollister . Since 2013 it has been kept inside and well taken care of. This truck get over 25 mpg at 60 mph.The truck has been recently updated at the "Power Wagon Shop" in Ventura and new carpets along with additional insulation and upgraded stereo with cd dvdnavigation and blue tooth.The winch was installed with 175' of new galvanized cable and attached to a Chelsea unidirectional pto a new battery box was added which locks up and out of the way but can also be easily accessible by unlocking and dropping it down for service there is a red top Optima battery which starts the diesel nicely.If you need to help jump start someone there are insulated jumper lugs located inside the passenger side engine compartment as seen in the engine picture. A Vintage Air unit provides the air conditioning and heating and defrost and works well the truck sits on STA Super Lug tires and the six on the ground have approx 3000 miles on them and the spare attached inside the bed has not seen pavement yet.The original 583 ring and pinions have all been changed to 489's. The truck can cruise comfortably in freeway traffic and with a 33 gallon custom stainless fuel tank built by Chris Case your range is close to 800 miles.The truck has 6 wheel power disc brakes along with power steering the drivers side bucket seat is power and the truck comes with a standard receiver hitch with a dash mounted brake controller. Body. The sheet metal is from a WDX and it replaced the open military cab hood and nose piece and the bed was custom built to the owners specifications I bought it from the bed rail protectors the spare tire holder and the head ache rack along with the bed work lights where added recently. Engine. The truck is powered by a Cummins 4BT 3.9 liter intercooled turbo diesel which has the VE pump and is running between 105 and 110 hp and carries a 3" pipe to the rear behind the passenger fender. Transmission. The ZF 5 speed works smoothly between gears down shifting or up shifting and the clutch although it is heavy duty only requires a light touch on the pedal the dual out put transfer case is well insulated and very quite and smooth also. Suspension. The front leaf packs were built for a 6bt conversion so there is plenty of arc in the spring packs with the 4bt the front shocks are in good working order the rear suspension is an inverted leaf spring bogie on a four link and rides very smooth compared to a two axle.
