A pioneering piece of American truck design, this 1953 Dodge Pickup
with the iconic rear fender styling that dominated Dodge's truck
lineup for over three decades. The Blue Sky paint creates a bold
visual presence across the classic sheet metal. Custom touches
include black-finished wood bed planks and flat black bumpers that
emphasize the truck's raw utility. Upgraded lighting systems
illuminate every angle, while 15-inch wheels wrapped in beefy
31x10.5R15LT tires anchor the stance.
A blend of materials defines the cabin, featuring blue vinyl and
cloth covering the wide bench seat. The custom diamond plate
plastic panels transform the doors, cab back, and headliner into an
industrial-styled workspace. A crisp new gauge cluster mounted
behind the chrome steering wheel displays critical information. The
rubber floor mat adds tough functionality to the footwell.
Raw mechanical muscle comes from the T306 218 cubic inch
inline-six, controlled through a floor-mounted 3-speed manual
transmission. Modern upgrades include a comprehensive electrical
overhaul with labeled wiring and firewall junction box.
Performance-focused additions like updated fuel lines, radiator
hose, and drive belt optimize the powertrain. The truck rides on
leaf springs and shocks at all corners, while the aftermarket
exhaust system announces its arrival.
