1933 to mid 34 truck dash. Not sure when the switch took place for the dash change in 34.

Another late 35 1st series Dodge Merchant truck.

[1934 Dodge Canopy Express 1/2 ton]

HC and the HCL (1933) have different thickness frames, engines, brakes etc.

The 33-34-35 trucks are the same as the 33 Dodge car from the B pillar forward except for the dash. Frame is different  because of mounting and wheel base. 34 Dodge car is totally different than the 33 car.

Can You tell, Dave, if there were any differences in the general appearance of the "late 1935 1st series, and 2nd series 1935 and 1936" vehicles ?

35 2nd series cab and 36 cab are close. Fuel for the 35 is in the back near the tailgate. 36 is under the drivers seat. Doors from the 35 2nd series will fit up to the 38. Dash is the same from the late 35 1st series to the 36. 37 is totally differed for the dash.

So I have 1934 K47 2 ton with suicide doors but I also have the 3 gauges like below. I thought the 3 gauges were late 35 or later.

3 gauge with no glove box was late 34, early 35.

with glove box, late 35 1st series and 2nd series 35 and 36.

You have a cool rare truck. We have bought and sold a couple. Here is our 11/2 ton single wheel merchant-canopy truck.

someone through the years attached a back cab to this truck.

 

[WTB: 1968 Pontiac Firebird Coupe OHC 6]

While I was going to the NAVY Military school in Chicago in 1971, I bought a 67 Lemans OHC6 with the 4 barrel and 3 speed on the floor. Bought the car so I could go home on weekends from Chicago yo Detroit. Paid 200.00 for the car and i drove that car for 6 months back and forth with no problems. I would take a couple people to pay for the gas. 25 MPG and it ran 17 in the 1/4. Was one of my favorite cars. Good luck with find. I hauled one that your looking for and it was a convertible. The car was beautiful.

I haven't posted many cars for sale here recently, but this handsome Dodge is just too much car for too little cash to not offer it to my friends here on the forum. If you're looking for an entry-level pre-war tour car, this is a really great choice. When it showed up, it made a good first impression with nice paint and bodywork, but the test drive is where it really won me over. My expectations these days are always pretty low, but this little Dodge fired right up, idled smoothly, didn't have any exhaust leaks or funny noises, and drove beautifully. Nice shifts, light clutch action, strong brakes with no pulling, and easy steering. It has been in the same family for nearly 40 years, and the previous owner's late father did the restoration about 20 years ago--he must have been pretty particular because it's holding up beautifully. The interior is lovely and correct, and it's got an optional radio, fog lights, and heater, although the radio seems to be offline. All the gauges are operational, including the gas gauge. And the woodgraining is exceptional, particularly the glove box lid, and the trunk is big enough for touring with the whole family.

 

I was on a tour a few years ago in Ontario with some friends, one of whom had a virtually identical Dodge, and it had no problems keeping up with my 8-cylinder Buick on the open road, so I have a lot of respect for these six-cylinder Mopars. This car isn't detailed for show underneath, but it's not at all rusty or rotten and it's in just about the ideal condition for care-free touring. Others will surely chime in, but these are simply nice driving cars that are bulletproof reliable and inexpensive to own.

 

So that's the short version on this car. It takes a lot to impress me these days and this car did it, which is why I'm posting it here. It's attractive, fun to drive, competent, and at $18,900, even affordable. I like this car a lot!

 

Thanks for looking!

 

     

 

     

 

     

 

     

 

     

WOW!!

That car is a beautiful car at a great price!!

Hi Dave, 

 

Yes, that is correct for the spare hold down.

 

Looks like a heart, and has three nipples on each point that fits in the centering holes of the spare wheel. Locks the wheel in place.

 

Radiator number is 739302 ('37) or 770351 ('38)

 

Here is a shot of Vic's linkage, I could not find one of mine.

 

The customer and I thank you again for your help.

Thanks

Dave

Hi Allen

Is this correct for the 37 38?

Do you have pictures of the fuel carb linkage set up on the fire wall?

Radiator number?

Have a guy restoring a 37 Ply pickup to stock.

Thanks so much

Dave

Thanks for Your answer, Dave ! I have already read Your posts in other topics, including those, where You wrote about Your strong involvement with Your work.

Yes, this is indeed a pity, since You have already mentioned Your collection of Dodge materials and literature, and I am pretty sure, that You could help me with them. I even wrote an e-mail to You on September 15 this year with a similar request.

But life is life, and work is work - there is nothing to argue against these arguments...

Well, I will have to be patient, and wait until You have the time and opportunity to answer me in detail.

 

And yes - Your tow truck is beautiful ! Thank You very much for these photos. This type of truck is one of those, that interest me.

 

 

Best regards,

Ed.

I have a ton of info on heavy trucks. Probably the largest collection that we have gathered in the last 40 years. unfortunately  I do not have time because we just moved our shop to home and a lot of stuff is stilled packed. And to make matters worse, my job is traveling around the country 10 months out of the year. I will share when I can. Here is our 2 ton 34 Dodge tow truck.
