    what 6 x 6 is this?

    If/when you remove that hard cab the rear wall will no longer be a problem. But you will then need a windshiled frame (inner & outter)& mounting hardware. The bed on there as you can imagine is not OEM for the WC63. What I should have mentioned with my WC, is that during the course of it's...

    what 6 x 6 is this?

    If you look at the positioning of the pedals you'll notice that trying to graft another cab onto that frame, like an M37 cab for example, would be a major undertaking. Those trucks (WWII trucks in general) weren't much fun for long distance driving with their non adjustable seats and cramped...

    what 6 x 6 is this?

    My WC51 was painted the same color and had an identical hard cab grafted onto it's original open cab which certainly saved it from the elements. My truck was a European return brought "home" some time in the 1970s. Think it was imported by Seaco from Switzerland...

    what 6 x 6 is this?

They took their 3/4 ton WC51/WC52 weapons carrier, lengthend the frame added an extra axle and a two speed transfercase. The cab on that truck is identical to the one...

    what 6 x 6 is this?

    It is a WWII Dodge WC62 (WC63s had a winch) 1.5 ton truck (Weapons carrier). They were built from 1943 to 1945 with a production total of less then 50k (think it was around 43,ooo units?) trucks. One of those was my first MV... Matt Tire size is 9:00X16 on 5 lug rims. Engine...
