Oh sorry didnt think about that but if it matters as to the truck its a 1941 dodge wc 9. Its pretty much stock motor and drive train. I live in the mountains and plan on using it off road as well as black top. Im bought it from the original owners family. It was active on a farm until about 2/3...

Thats what i have on now 2 are from 1941 and the other 2 are from 1952. I just figured i would go back to the stock size.

Same here, im in the mountains of Kentucky. But i do wanna put it on black top as well. I prefer mud and snow, and bias ply is what im looking for. I still run them on my 48 ford. I will look them up. Thank you ClintA.

I wanted to know what type of tires you guys are running? I want to drive mine on the road as well as off road and snow. I know the stock military type tires are not really the ticket for me. But affordable rubber is a concern as well. I seen Deestone has a a good looking mud grip type 10 ply. I...

I will get them today and post them.

Ok im confused on the engine id #. I have looked at several different sites and my numbers dont seem to match any year if im doing it right. My # is 0MU316 what year does that make my engine? Any help would be great thanks.

Yeah i got pics but i havent figured out how to load them.

Ok i just relized i put my comments on the wrong post. But i guess the same. Vpw says the m601 open cab would fit on my 41 wc frame and front clip. Anyone done this or know anything tha would help.

Thanks tankdriver, i appreciate the info. I have called and talked to both. Very nice people. Neither had a cab. Got everything else i need. VPW told me they had m601 cabs that could fit. Anyone ever done this? Thanks for the info, im new so i havent made any contacts yet. From what ive seen so...

Its an early amblance wc9. Its runnig and driving. The frame it near perfect as is the front fenders grill and hood. They left the cab and folded the top of the rear compartment down to form a rear section. What type of civilians cab fit the front clip? I found a 47 would it work?

Im really not sure wher this should go? I have found a running and driving 41wc amblance. Problem is they cut the body off and made a flat bed. No luck in finding a useable body. What to do now? Will a regular cab fit on it? The motor, trans and rears are all rebuilt. Frame is good along with...

I was looking at several sites online. I found alot of parts which really surprised me. I have looked at a few of the restored vechicals and it always leaves my mouth drooling. I hope i can achieve what alot of you guys have already done. I have a few physical hurdles and im going at it alone...

Thats not my problem, i need to find a donor bed or at least patch panels. It comes witj a bed but it has alot of dents and several spots of rust. The cab fenders and frame are all good.

Its a 1943 wc51, but i was told the bed was an early model. I have got the truck yet. I didnt know if it would be worth it if i couldnt find the bed. They are asking 1800 and it has alot of the parts. Im good at mechanical work. But i dont know if it would be worth it if i cant find a bed. I...

Hi guys pleased to be, yet nervous as ****. I have found an old wc51. The only real problem is the bed is rough. The cab is painted alone with the fenders and frame. Big question is the bed, does anyone make panels for them? I have not found any online. I have found some good suppliers for other...
