I am not against keeping it but can you help me get some info on it. I believe it is a dodge. I also think it is a forest ranger type truck rather than a military truck.
Can you tell me if this is actually a Dodge, I believe it is...
Also, what do you think about the price that the auction ended at? I got into such a rush bidding on a fed different trucks I didn't notice that this truck didn't have doors.
Are parts available for this truck? What is going to be involved with getting this street legal? Registered through my DMV and then insured to drive on the street?
What size engine and type of trans is this? I am more familar with the chevrolet engine/trans setups...
I can still back out of the deal, but is this seems to be a good truck and a good deal I might keep it. I already have one project car that needs alot of attention, this would be number 2!
Maybe not exactly this model, but very similar. This is a WC-21.

WC 1/2ton open cab, besides the engine used, wasn't much difference in the model years ,though from what I can see yours has the military guages which should make it a later model like my (old) WC-21 ( T-215)
Good price!
Guys,
Thank you so much for your input. This really helpped out. Im going to contact the seller and try and work something out. I can't buy this truck right now.
I think it is going to go up to about $6,000. Seems like that is what they are worth. Im just curious as to how difficult it is to find parts and get these things driving down the road? That is a diesel engine correct? What are they called and where can I read some info on these?
My concern that I had was, the car has been licensed to drive in California but was donated to this company to sell. They don't have a title so obviously no pink slip. But if the truck was lincensed then someone out there has a pink slip. You could call the DMV and find out who owns the title, but this could get screwy. Also, why would someone donate a perfectly good car for someone else to sell?
sorry
I looked at what you want not what you got
That is a wc as others have said and worth about twice what the m37 is worth or more .
