Album of a Dodge Carryall. Body was WWII, stretched to fit the early 50s frame of a civilian Power Wagon. Will someday become a blue pick up, I've already bought the paint. Or maybe a steel framed woodie? But the blue is fersure.

1 Backing it into the driveway. Next step, control the bees that have a hive in the gas tank.
I later decided to sell off the carryall parts, and pursue a civvy FFPW build.
2 Lift gate OK, tailgate may be OE skin, but is gutted, and skin NFG. Tailgate hinges are salvageable.
3 Left side has a couple of brackets welded on, need removal.
Boy, I sure wish that was red primer...
4 " Valuable parts" inside. Rear seats may be appropo, front seats are correct.
5 There is a bit of rust in the intermediate panel.
6 Weld seam up the cowl and across. Plus, heading under the widnshield, top of dash is a separate piece dfrom wither firewall or dash.
7 An electric fuel pump!
8 Fan, shroud, etc look good. Radiator is fubar on front. Engine did turn 180° with a hand crank.
9 Radiator damage. "DODGE" in fine shape. Winch bumper with extensions. PTO and shaft in there some where, front u-joint hack sawed to remove winch. A-frame brackets will unbolt.
10 Hydro-vac mounted to front fender, necessitating hacking up the hood. Otherwise hood was good, center hinge nice too.
11 Vent filter for hydra-vac I guess?
12 Dash with a coupkle gauges added. Note the overlap at the top.
13 Cross bows for top. Rusted away. But there are a few steel spacer 'knobs' that mounted the top plywood left.
14 Seat frame parts, maybe for back seats, haven't jig saw puzzled them yet.
15 A little bin on the inside of the 'stretch' panel. It has a wiper access cover and a filler neck w/ cap in side. Note the bullet holes.
