1940 Dodge VC-4
Please serious inquirers only.
If you are looking for the truck that started the power wagon this is the truck for you.  This 1940 Dodge VC-4 is 1 of 4 built in a closed cab pickup in 1940.  The truck was restored back in 1982 & 1983, the paint job was completed in 1983 so as you can see from the pictures the truck has been well taken care of.  The truck has had some dings and dents over the years but run great and is the only vehicle that I have had that would start up no matter how long it has been sitting.
As you can see the interior is not original as it has bucket seats and carpet throughout the inside,  the head lights are not original, and the speedometer, fuel gauge, and temperature gauge is not working.
Dodge VC 1/2 Ton 4x4 Truck (G505)
The Dodge VC Half Ton 4x4 Truck, in six models, was the follow up to a very active program by Dodge to supply trucks to the War Department in WW II and the inter-war years. The VC series were based on civilian one ton rated truck designs, a first attempt to fill the vast needs that would develop for the American military in World War II. The VC series half-ton trucks was classified as G505.
Truck, 1/2 ton, 4x4, Dodge VC (G505)
The G505 family of 1/2 ton, 4x4 VC trucks built by Dodge contained six individual models. Only the pickup body and the Command Reconnaissance body had production exceeding one thousand with smaller numbers of the others manufactured.
All of the VC-1 to VC-6 G505 Dodge half-ton 4x4 vehicles were produced during 1940 under War Department contracts, for a total of 4,640 trucks. While very successful, the 1/2 ton VC trucks were superceded in 1941 by the 1/2 ton G505 WC trucks, also from Dodge. Although obsolete, the 1/2 ton VC G505 trucks remained in use to the end of World War II.

All Dodge halfton VC series trucks were Dodge engineering code T202 with a 116 in. wheelbase. The T202 engine was a flathead 6 cyl. 201.3 cu. in. with 79hp@3000rpm. The transmission had 4 speeds and the transfer case had one.

Stellantis reports surprising 2020 results, is 'off to a flying start'

Wed, Mar 3 2021

MILAN — Low global car inventories and cost cuts should boost Stellantis's profit margins this year, though a shortage of semiconductors and investments in electric vehicles could weigh on results, the newly-formed automaker said on Wednesday. The forecast came as Stellantis, created by the January merger of Peugeot-maker PSA and Fiat Chrysler (FCA), reported better-than-expected results for 2020 that sent its shares up around 3% in morning trading. "Stellantis gets off to a flying start and is fully focused on achieving the full promised synergies (from the merger)," Chief Executive Carlos Tavares said in a statement. Stellantis is the world's fourth largest carmaker, with 14 brands including Fiat, Peugeot, Opel, Jeep, Ram and Maserati. It said 2021 results should be helped by three new high-margin Jeep vehicles in North America and a strong pricing environment there. The U.S. market has driven profits for years at FCA and starts off as the strongest part of Stellantis. The group's guidance assumes no more significant lockdowns caused by the global COVID-19 pandemic, which shuttered auto plants around the world last spring. Stellantis should also get a lift as its starts to implement a plan aimed at delivering over 5 billion euros a year in savings, without closing any plants. Tavares has also pledged not to cut jobs. But a pandemic-related global shortage of semiconductors, used for everything from maximizing engine fuel economy to driver-assistance features, could hurt business. Auto industry executives have said the shortage should ease by the second half of 2021. Stellantis said its "electrification offensive" could also weigh on results this year. Automakers are racing to develop electric vehicles to meet tighter CO2 emissions targets in Europe and this week Volvo joined a growing number of carmakers aiming for a fully-electric line-up by 2030. Stellantis plans to have fully-electric or hybrid versions of all of its vehicles available in Europe by 2025, broadly in line with plans at top rivals such as Volkswagen and Renault-Nissan, although Stellantis has further to go to meet that goal. The carmaker is targeting an adjusted operating profit margin of 5.5%-7.5% this year. That compares with a 5.3% aggregated margin last year: 4.3% at FCA and 7.1% at PSA excluding a controlling stake in parts maker Faurecia, which is set to be spun-off from Stellantis shortly.

For his last act, Marchionne will outline an EV/hybrid roadmap this week

Wed, May 30 2018

MILAN/LONDON — Fiat Chrysler (FCA) boss Sergio Marchionne is expected to outline new plans for electric and hybrid cars in a strategy presentation on Friday, aiming to ensure the world's seventh-largest carmaker remains in the race in the absence of a merger. The 65-year-old will present FCA's strategy to 2022, his final contribution to the company he turned around and multiplied in value through 14 years of canny dealmaking. After failing to secure a tie-up he said was necessary to manage the costs of producing cleaner vehicles, Marchionne needs to show the group can keep churning out profits on its own, even as emissions rules tighten, SUV competition intensifies and worries around his succession abound. Marchionne had long refused to jump on the electrification bandwagon, saying he would only do so if selling battery-powered cars could be done at a profit. He even urged customers not to buy FCA's Fiat 500e, its only battery-powered model, because he was losing money on each sold. But Tesla's success and the need to comply with tougher emissions rules have forced Marchionne to commit to what he calls "most painful" spending. "FCA is way behind rivals in terms of hybrid and electric vehicles and they need to hit the accelerator to convince investors they can close that gap," said Andrea Pastorelli, a fund manager at 8a+ Investimenti. Germany's Volkswagen, Daimler, BMW and U.S. rivals GM and Ford have committed to spending billions of euros each in coming years to try produce profitable cars powered by cleaner fuels. FCA needs to present a clear roadmap, just like Volvo Cars, which ditched diesel from its best-selling XC60 SUV, launched a new electric brand and pledged to shift all brands to hybrid by 2019, a banking source close to FCA said, noting: "The tech divide determines winners and losers in the industry." Marchionne has already said half of the wider FCA fleet will incorporate some elements of electrification by 2022, while luxury marque Maserati will spearhead FCA's electrification drive by making all new models due after 2019 electric. But its plans remain vaguer and less advanced than most big rivals and some investors wonder about the capital required to make vehicles compliant, and what share of spending can go to electrification given FCA's numerous demands.
