Latest WC-57 progress shot

Got to somehow get some activity going on the Dodge subpage...

Just came back from a visit to an old truck graveyard, in the past few months it seems that two 100 foot rows of old vehicles have disappeared into the crusher. Snagged a few items but most stuff is going fast.

This shot doesn't look like progress yet but the amount of work done is huge. Rims ready for paint, steam clean and start to reassemble some of the sheet metal. Have to find a left running board.

Someone told me that the rear seat was originally mounted n a frame similar to the front, anyone know what it looked like?

Very cool. Looks like a front winch is hiding up there?

This side looks amazingly straight. Hard to believe that thing is 60+ years old.

Go to Google and type "WC 57" and this is what you get:

Yes that body looks real nice! Is that a command car? Nice work! BTW, I hate to see all the old stuff getting scrapped!

CC Seat

They do look similar. I am working in Mississippi but can send you a pic or two when I go back to Texas in June. Your body looks real nice, mine needs the floor re-done and I'm no welder.

RE: CC Seat

John Bizal of Midwest Military http://www.midwestmil.com/index.html recently restored a command car.

He is a good resource
