ZIL157 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) Does anyone know this Dodge WC57, chassis no. 81680337, reg. no. FUY 270 ? I rescued it from an orchard back in the 1970's and have always wondered what happened to it. I've found this old photo of it on the net which at least tells me that someone restored it and it didn't succumb to the 'gas axe'. Thanks for your time, all the best to one and all.

Great War truck Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Yes. I know that Dodge. I saw it only 4 Months ago.. It is much loved by the current owner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZIL157 Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 Thanks for that, my trawl through the DVLA site suggested that it no longer existed ! If you know the owner perhaps you could ask them whether they might like a photo or two as it was when I dragged it out of the orchard complete with wrecker jib installed. I acquired it in Worcestershire, has it moved far ? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because my own Dodge is listed under 'Dodge USA' I naturally assumed this would be in the same category. As you say, it is there under plain 'Dodge'. Thanks for your imput.
