Vehicle Description
Worldwide Vintage Autos is pleased to present this 1978 Dodge Power
Wagon
HISTORY
The Dodge Power Wagon is a four wheel drive medium duty truck that
was produced in various model series from 1945 to 1981 by Dodge,
then as a nameplate for the Dodge Ram from 2005 to 2013, and, most
recently '13-present, as an individual model marketed by Ram
Trucks. It was developed as the WDX truck, and until about 1960 it
was internally known by its engineering code T137 - a name still
used for the original series by enthusiasts. The original civilian
version, commonly called the "flat fender" Power Wagon or FFPW, was
mechanically based on Dodge's 3/4-ton WC series of World War II
military trucks. The Power Wagon was the first mass-produced 4x4
medium duty truck, and represents a significant predecessor to the
many modern four wheel drive trucks in use today. Updated variants
continued in production until 1964.
