This rare example truck was frame off restored in 2003. Found on a farm in Walton NY, where it was used for farm duties since the late 50s. Advertised "For Sale" in a local paper for $700.00 on July 14th, 2001, a local retired bank executive purchased it and decided this would be his project to restore it back to its original state. Completely photo documented in 2 albums from start to finish. After he and some helpers pushed it onto the trailer, the process began. Originally Medium Blue, the paint was in poor condition, however the body was overall solid with one small hole in the floor by the gas pedal . Over the next 2 years, the truck was dismantled and a complete frame off restoration took place. Every piece was refurbished or replaced. The orig. engine, a 241 V8 Power Dome over head valve engine was the first year V8 and wasn't common to see in a pickup. 1/2 ton models were called "B" series, the first letter designated on the Dodge truck line up. The engine has all the factory components, heads, intake, carb, dist., radiator, exhaust manifold were also refurbished. The 3 spd. trans. was also inspected during the process, new U-joints, new brake system, brake lines, hoses, brake linings, wheel cylinders, e-brake cables, rebuilt new master cylinder, springs, front end components etc. the frame was complete sand blasted and refinished in Satin blk. The body was completely stripped to the bare metal and refinished in single stage enamel. Most of these trucks had a 3 piece back window, yet, this model was quite rare having a one piece back window. Complete new window rubbers, new weather strip kit, factory heater was also refinished and is in working condition. The original wood bed was in need of replacing Red oak was milled off Walton Mt. and all new stainless hardware was used to secure the stainless slats to the bed. Several coats of polyurethane was applied to seal the oak bed. Red oxide primer was used on the cab, doors and fenders and floor before the truck got painted. The original gas tank was removed from behind the seat and reconditioned. Every nut, bolt and screw was replaced or refurbished. The finished product is a 1955 Dodge, Canyon Coral/Antique White, two tone paint. Black painted steel orig. style bumpers, orig. blk. steel running boards, color keyed antique white center grille, restored chrome, Dodge V8 center hood emblem, dual opening hood, cowl vent, single side view mirror, orig. steel style wheels with orig. center caps, side mounted tire. Orig. door handles, orig. tail gate with tail gate chains, orig. style reproduction turn signal lamps with complete new wiring from front to back. The interior coach work is fully restored in Dove Gray. New door panels, seat covers, new seat foam and burlap new headliner with dome light. Restored orig. steering wheel with Aruuuga horn, functional turn signals, beautifully restored dash and instrument cluster, no radio, optional heater, no sun visors, new re chromed rear view mirror. The interior door hardware is original and is in excellent condition. Drive and enjoy! You won't be sorry buying such a piece of history. This rare example is an excellent driver quality restored truck with the 241 V8 cam engine. Priced below market value. In the interest of disclosure I have included photos of the the "repaired" original running boards and the bottom of the tailgate that did not get the same attention to detail as the rest of the loving restoration. this truck draws more cameras, thumbs up and overall attention then most high dollar muscle cars.

Dodge recalls 2011-2016 Charger to give owners wheel chocks
Wed, Feb 3 2016A bizarre new recall gives wheel chocks to Dodge Charger owners so that people remain safe while changing the sedan's wheels. The campaign covers 441,578 examples of the 2011-2016 Charger in the US; plus 19,229 in Canada; 4,969 in Mexico, and 38,947 outside the NAFTA region. According to Dodge's announcement, owners should use the chocks to stabilize the Charger when using a jack to change the wheels, like in the case of a flat tire. Without them it's possible for the sedan to fall off the jack. The company is aware of three minor hand injuries from this problem. Dodge will notify owners by mail when they can pick up the free wheel chocks. FCA US spokesperson Eric Mayne offered Autoblog a more detailed explanation about this recall. "The body structure of this vehicle is unique. If owner's manual instructions are not followed, slippage may occur. Chocks are being provided to help ensure the instructions are followed," he said. "We are continually analyzing warranty data to identify ways to improve the ownership experience. When tire-jack data was reviewed, we identified a need to further assist our customers." Statement: Wheel Chocks February 3, 2016 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is conducting a voluntary safety recall to supply wheel chocks for an estimated 441,578 full-size sedans in the U.S. The chocks are for use, as instructed in the vehicle's owner's manual, when employing a tire jack to change wheels. When positioned diagonally opposite to the wheel being changed, the chocks will help stabilize the vehicle. Failure to follow the manual's instructions with an affected vehicle may cause the vehicle to come off the tire jack. FCA US is aware of three related injuries – all minor. The recall is limited to 2011-2016 Dodge Chargers. Also affected by the campaign are an estimated 19,229 cars in Canada; 4,969 in Mexico and 38,947 outside the NAFTA region. Recall notices will advise affected customers when they may obtain their wheel chocks, which will be supplied free of charge. Customers with questions or concerns may call the FCA US Customer Care Center at 1-800-853-1403.
