Vehicle Description
The vintage truck market is heating up with the mainstream Chevys
and Fords, but when was the last time you saw a 1950 Dodge B2
pickup? With a very correct presentation, right down to its 230ci
heart, this is the pickup offers a lot of distinction at a very
affordable price.
This Job-Rated Dodge will transport you back to the '50s with one
glance. The two-tone tan and brown have a great interaction all
along the body, including inside the real wood truck bed. It really
lets you see the unique features on this pickup like the old-school
side opening hood, tall glass "Pilothouse" cab, and the extra tall
bed sides. But while the attitude feels period-correct, you are
also picking up some hints of metal flake in the brown, just to
give this pickup a little weekend flair. And speaking of style,
features like the factory ram hood ornament and the addition of
aluminum running boards give this workhorse Dodge plenty of
presence.
Inside the same color scheme continues with the exterior tan now
being joined by brown vinyl on the bench seat and door panels. Just
like the outside, this is a quality presentation that respects its
roots. So from the moment you grab the large three-spoke steering
wheel and look over the metal dash, this feels like true old-school
motoring. Even the heater is still working. But for those times
when you want to be a bit more modern, all you have to do is open
the glove box. Inside is a CB radio and AM/FM/cassette stereo. That
way you can still be entertained without ruining the vintage
atmosphere.
Underneath the cool butterfly hood is another great marvel, the 230
cubic-inch inline six. This optional motor gave these Dodges extra
Job-Rated power. It's presentation today looks just like an honest
pickup that's still ready for the workday. Careful ownership over
the years means it fires up like a reliable truck should. It has an
old style, smooth rhythmic exhaust note that you'll probably love
better than any radio station. And you're in complete control of
this tempo thanks to Dodges easy shifting Fluid Drive three-speed
transmission.
Mopar trucks are always the rarest of the bunch (Dodge only
produced about a third as many trucks as Ford did in 1950.) So when
you get an opportunity at a uncommon, and fully sorted classic
pickup, and the price is this affordable, you know you have to be
quick to take it home. Call now!!
