8-Body, rear fender spare cutout
Current clear Iowa title.

A solid restoration project. This has been stored many years in a heated building. Rear seat and trunk area about 1 foot up from floor were long ago cut off prior to acquisition. A replacement upper rear piece was sourced, cut, and matched to the body. That piece is sitting loose on the truck right now. Realignment work to the rear floor and lower sides is needed to make it fit properly before welding up. Rear floor is dented but solid. Have a couple other rear area body pieces that go with. Includes an original tailgate and tail gate chains. Has reproduction tailgate and all new lock hardware. Reproduction battery box. Running boards are solid. Many vintage and reproduction parts with it. BRC 528 radio set, consisting of a BC 603 and a BC 604. I have no idea how complete the radio is or if it can made to function. No mounts, cabinet, or other radio parts. There is a top bow set. Don’t know if it's all there. Has the windshield header bar for the top. Do NOT have a top. Do have one used canvas right rear door and one NOS looking right front door. The plastic windows in those are fogged and/or broken out. Two vacuum driven wiper motors and a third for parts. No idea of their condition. No wiper arms or blades. Reproduction wood front floor plate. Metal section of front flooring as well. The taillight cans are here but are just shells, Do NOT have the taillight parts. Have 4 round marble type safety reflectors. A NOS wiring harness in an original box marked Dodge. (Likely a harness for a later model?). Have parts of the ignition suppression system that were used on the radio cars. Original locking military pull out style light switch still in the dash. One NOS Weston voltage gauge. Weston box is dated 1944. Do NOT have an amp gauge. Dodge dash gauges were rebuilt. Has the proper blackout over regular ammeter area as the Weston gauges were mounted elsewhere in the dash. The rebuilt speedometer somehow got the glass face cracked in storage. The speed numbers are painted on that glass, and it will have to be replaced. Have all the original dash plates. Two spare tires on rims. One spare properly mounted on body. Incorrect civilian tires hold air, and it should roll on those tires. Ruined original seats are with it for replacement patterning with two good seat frames. New fuel pump. Looks like a new old stock master cylinder. Hand starting crank. Screw jack. Lots of small pieces, some vintage rebuild kits. I do not know if the engine is free. A rebuilt 55-amp generator. A 12 v 55-amp marked regulator. Comes with an original 1941 manual, a reprint parts manual covering several years of WC models and an old xerox of a radio installation manual for the ¾ ton radio cars. WC 16 frame number 8691339. Engine number T-2119490. Possibly hood number W-60660. Date of delivery 8-6-41

According to an internet database, is one 1284 1941 WC-16s built.

Please do not ask to buy parts, this is a package deal. Clean, current title in Iowa.
