Dodge Power Wagon Power Giant W100, Restored To Original, Shortbox, 4x4, Truck on 2040-cars

 1958 Dodge W100 Power Giant restored to original condition.  A ground up restoration was completed in 2011.  I have included a photo of the chassis during the restoration process so you can see that it was media blasted, painted and the freshly rebuilt 6 cylinder engine.  The truck is an early year production indicated by single headlamps.

Transfer case:  NP 91000 2 speed

Gear ratio:  4.89:1

Again this truck has been restored to original with exception to the wood bed.  Originally that was pine wood painted black.  I used oak wood and clear spar varnish, see photo.  The battery is a reproduction of the original, with caps.  Photo was taken when battery was out, battery does go with truck.  The speedometer was not turned back, but only  has about 300 miles on truck.  Also the photos may vary in color, I used two different cameras and for some reason colors appear to be brighter on one. 

1958 was the second year dodge came out with a civilian style four wheel drive truck for the public.  This truck was originally intended to be a work truck, built very solid.  With a gear ratio of 4.89 the top speed is about 45mph.  This truck was originally a County Truck in Arizona, and sat in the desert for many years prior to my purchase of it.  The body only had light surface rust, no rusted panels.  I purchased it and began a complete restoration that took 6 years.  Close attention was given to keep everything as it would of been from the factory. 

The truck runs and drives great, Very fun to drive around you will get thumbs up and lots of people wanting to stop and talk about it.  I have had so much fun showing this truck, great to show off a piece of our automotive history. 

Has a clear Wisconsin title.
