Old Cars Reader Wheels: 1956 Dodge Power Wagon
Old Cars spotlights a reader submitted 1956 Dodge Power Wagon
One look a this Dodge and I know it means business. Jerry Mattison sent us this pic of his stunning and kick-ass Dodge Power Wagon. He had this to add…
“Purchased from original owner that bought the truck new in 1956 from a Dodge dealer in Greenfield MA. Have original bill of sale and key with original Dodge key chain. Over the course of the last 4 years I did a ground up restoration. All numbers match right down to the wheels that have been tired up with non directional 9x16 rubber that would have came new on truck in 1956. In an effort to keep everything original or period correct, it has been painted 1956 Dodge Ponchartrain Green with Mason single stage urethane. Everything on this truck has been taken apart and refurbished. The bed is white oak with 3 coats clear urethane, stainless steel bed strips and hardware. This truck is a late 1956 Dodge mid-year changed to a 12-volt electrical system, a NP synchronized 4-speed transmission and came with the only factory option at the time a drivers side arm rest. You will not set any land speed records with this truck but you can crawl over and climb just about anything.”
