What kind of shape was the dodge in? I am working on a 47 dodge 1.5 ton now. I looked hard for one of these in good condition for years.

Back in the early 70's i bought a 1962 Corvair ramp side for $150. Only let me down once when I had to stop quick and blew 3 brake lines. Drove the last few blocks to work with zero brakes. Good thing they had RR ties in the parking lot. Had that fixed and used it to tow a Case VAC home about 5 miles from an auction Finished the clutch off and I junked it. Paid only $35. for the pretty decent VAC with a brand new starter in the box.
