For Sale at Auction: 1953 Dodge M-37 in Billings, Montana

1953 Dodge M37
VIN: 36081

The Dodge M37 3/4-ton 4x4 truck was Dodge's follow-up to their successful WC Series from World War II. Introduced in 1951, it was used extensively by the United States armed forces during the Korean war. A conventional pickup truck style bed replaced the platform on the World War II vehicle, simplifying production and increasing it's civilian use. The powerplant is Chrysler's Straight-6 cylinder engine derived from a 1930s era passenger vehicle engine that was widely produced. This was in line with a long-standing military procurement strategy that attempted to use commercially produced vehicle variants in military service.

The M37 presented at auction has been restored and is reported (not verified) to have been used in many movie productions. The seller reports the car to run and drive just like it did in 1953! Somewhat rough riding, could potentially go anywhere, perfect for outdoor use! The bikes in the bed are not included in the sale of the M37.
