Okay, I'll play...

A pic of my junk from when I was in WA...

i'm betting the 54 rear end retired a bit earlier then you wanted it to.
Technically, a 54 is considered a "Functional Design Era" 1954-1956.
The "Power Giant Era" was from 1957 to 1960
And the 1961-1971 were the "Sweptline Era"
The earlier 1948-1953 were the "Pilot-House Era".
And the 1939-1947 were the "Job Rated Era".
The 1936-1938 were called the "Fore-Point Era".
The 1933-1935 were called the "Glamour Era".
Interestingly enough, the 1901-1932 were just "Dodge Trucks".

Just in case you didn't know, The Dodge brothers were parts suppliers for the 1900 auto industry. They supplied motors and transmissions for many of the car companies during that time. They also invested in the startup of the Ford Motor Company and supplied the new Ford Company with motors and transmissions. They were very wealthy men at the time. The Dodge Brothers Motor company developed because of a feud with Ford. Gene

Well, call me crazy but I went and looked at that 58 power wagon. Gonna go ahead and buy it, nice and solid truck no rust! Big back window cab. Frame and hardware rebuilt. Rebuilt 440, no trans or Driveline’s but I’ve got that covered. Now just gotta finish my a-100.

Nice score , do you live in Idaho? Seen one at a house near me like that.

Well.... I gave my son the panel for painting my Charger and a-100. Moved some things around in the shop. put it up on a table and started tearing it apart. going to be ladder bar at the rear and mustang 2 in the front, gen3 hemi with a single hair dryer. It never ends!

looks like a neat project !
do you have any shots of the front ladderbar mount ?

Nice work. So I'm old and a little bit slow, if you gave the panel to your son for previous deads why are you working on it ? Panels look so good.

I really like your truck speeder. What engine do you have in it? Yours looks just like one from my area that belonged to a rural "neighbor" in the 60s who used to stop and give me a ride into town when I was walking to school. His was the factory orange with white wheels just like yours. I have a soft sport for these trucks.
