Vehicle Description
One look at this 1947 Dodge Pickup and your mind starts thinking
about all the different things you can do. That's because while
most classics are built to take you to fun places, this is the kind
of machine that was made to haul all the fun along with it.
A classic Dodge truck from the immediate post-WWII years is already
a rare sight. The distinct cross-hair grille is a design feature
that you see on brand new Mopar pickups today. So it's nice to have
this boldly/brightly leading the way. There are more cool vintage
details like the whitewall-style tires, ram hood ornament, and wood
stake bed. The full package is a patina-style classic, and so many
people will just assume many details have endured for the last 75
years. So while there are Texaco logos on the doors, you might be
tempted to take them off and put your own business logo on them.
That will give it decades of legitimacy even if you just opened
your doors yesterday!
Inside is a cab built for long-lasting function. The three-spoke
wheel has that worn-in grippy feeling that instantly connects you
with previous generations. The gearstick has a purposeful metallic
feel. Plus, the brown on the door panels, floor, and bench seat
breaks up the full black presentation for a pleasing vintage
style.
The straight-six motor has the casting for a later 218 cubic-inch
unit. But it has such a correct/classic presentation, that you'll
happily open up the butterfly hood to show off the bright red
block. The inline motor warms up to be a stout runner, and the
three-speed manual transmission puts you in proper control.
This Dodge needs extra love for it to be a real driver, but you can
tell there's plenty of appeal here. After all, it has a genuine
classic style that's great for promoting your business or providing
a base for a distinct project. So it's time to get your hands on a
cool immediate post-war pickup. Call now!
