Here's a WWII Dodge WC-51 Weapons Carrier that could be put back together without to much work.  We brought this vehicle home primarily because it still had a pretty nice bed on it, as they are not real easy to come up with. You will notice that there are some parts missing and if you decided to put this one back together we can help you with the rest of the parts.

  This dodge is pretty complete as far as the sheet metal goes and that is something we do not see as often as we used to.   The

We have had many New Old Stock parts come in since Spring and thought that you would like to know about them. Some years ago it appears that an Asian winch company took the Braden LU-4 aluminum winch housings and copied them exactly casting their name, Hanil, into them. We have these WINCHES for the M37/M43 in good used condition $795 or New take offs $950. The internals on these winches appear to be identical to the LU-4.

Next we were lucky to find some New Old Stock Carter ETW-1
