Hi Matt
I have my chassis number but where is the body tag number located?
Is it under the hood on a small tag about 2inch long with rounded ends?
sorry to sound so dumb :oops:

Hi Jack
This my WC51 shes called Dotty
Dotty was manufactured in 1942 and then after ww2 used by the norwegain army.
This is my first military vehicle and i didnt really know much about mechanics but dodges are very simple to work on like matt said. Im learning all the time and the great thing is that parts are easy to acquire.

Hi Lloyd
Thanks for the info!
Im not going to start cutting up my seats so i will probably do what you said and look in to purchasing on of those FT-250 mounts. Are they Standard to fit all American radios?
But as you said if after D-Day they started putting radios any where that is convinent i could put it back in the place the previous owner had one!
I will see if i can get a mount!
Thanks again

Hi All
I was wondering if you could help me?
I want to put a radio on my 1942 dodge wc51. which im going to buy a SCR 694 but where does it go?
I have seen many dodges with the radios on the back seat behind the driver! which then means you are not able to get to the under seat storage without cutting the bench seat? :shock:
The previous owner had a post war GCR9 attached to the flat part of the body next to the passenger seat. Where they normally put a fuel can in its holder.
Would this be a correct place to put a radio on its mount? Or did the flat piece use to be a lid for access to the storage as i think someone was trying to explain to me?
Best Regards
