1942 Dodge Truck
A well-preserved WWII-era Dodge truck, restored and maintained by the same owner for the last 25 years. Finished in Red and showing an indicated 21,130 miles, this classic 4x4 utility is powered by a rebuilt Chrysler KEW 6-cylinder petrol engine producing 95hp, paired with a 4-speed manual transmission.
Having benefited from a long-term restoration, the truck starts, runs and drives well. The electrical system has been fully refurbished, and the tyres have been replaced. A rare and rugged piece of wartime-era American engineering, preserved with care and rebuilt mechanicals.
Dodge WWII-Era Truck Model History
Dodge was one of the major suppliers of light to medium-duty trucks to Allied forces during World War II, producing hundreds of thousands of durable, mechanically simple, and highly reliable vehicles. These trucks earned a reputation for toughness in harsh environments, from the Pacific to North Africa. Many surviving examples were later repurposed for civilian use, becoming farm, industrial, and utility vehicles across the world. The 2.5-ton configuration — like the example offered here — remains especially sought after among collectors for its military heritage, robust driveline, and unmistakable pre-war styling.
