Original unrestored 1948 Dodge dealer service truck NOT MINE

[65 Cuda 340]

OK, not an A body, but what a history! Bought new by the owner of a DeSoto/Plymouth dealer in Dadeville, Alabama. Used as the dealer service truck from 1948 until Plymouth production ceased, sold in 1991. Just returned to the original family last year, when the original owner's great grandson bought it back. Still has the dealer logo on the doors. And the original hand-crank operated crane. And so on.

That is pretty cool, if it were mine I'd paint the wheels, reupholster the seat, ( don't care for the duct tape even if my great grand dad put it on , lol ), give it a good clean, scotch pad and then clear the exterior paint a d go find cool barn finds to rescue! Love the logos still on it!
