Description
This 1942 Dodge WC-23 Command Car is a ½-ton truck that spent time in Florida before it was moved to South Carolina in 2003 and refurbished. The truck is finished in olive drab over brown vinyl upholstery, and power is sent to the rear or all four wheels via a 230ci flathead straight-six paired with a four-speed manual gearbox and a single-speed transfer case. Equipment includes a canvas soft top, a folding windshield, and a side-mounted spare wheel. Features include US Army markings, tools, and door straps. The painted steel wheels are mounted with military-style bias-ply tires. A matching spare wheel is mounted on the left running board. The passenger compartment features two bench seats upholstered in brown vinyl, a steel dash with reproduction identification plates, and front and rear folding desks. The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 60-mph speedometer and gauges for water temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and amperage. The five-digit odometer shows 2,400 miles. Total mileage is unknown.
