For Sale at Auction: 1948 Dodge Power Wagon in Scottsdale, Arizona

Vehicle Description

This 1948 Dodge Power Wagon pickup is powered by its original 230ci L-head inline-6 engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and 2-speed transfer case. The drivetrain was fully rebuilt, with the engine professionally reconditioned, cylinders rebored and fitted with new pistons, rings, bearings and gaskets. It is equipped with a 12-volt electrical conversion and a modern electric pusher fuel pump for improved reliability. This pickup retains its fully operational Braden MU-2 PTO winch. Finished in a custom color inspired by the original Dodge palette, it retains its original cab, hood, fenders and doors, all stripped to bare metal, repaired and refinished. The bed, sourced from Vintage Power Wagons in Fairfield, IA, was hand-fitted to factory specifications and finished to match. This truck rides on custom 17-inch steel wheels wrapped in period-correct tires. The interior maintains its classic simplicity with a narrowed bench seat sourced from a 1950 Dodge pickup, reupholstered in a factory-style pattern. Original dash, gauges and controls were restored to working condition, and the split-pane tilt-out windshield and cab hardware were rebuilt and adjusted for full functionality. This Power Wagon was completed as a frame-off, nut-and-bolt restoration spanning nearly a decade from 2016 to 2025 by Robinson Restoration and Service of Denton, TX. The restoration is fully documented with a total investment of $236,000.
