Dodge Power Wagon Submodels
The Dodge Power Wagon first appeared in 1946 as the first mass-market 4x4 truck available to civilians. It was directly based on the 3/4-ton WC series military trucks that served in World War II, earning a reputation for incredible toughness and off-road capability that defined the model for decades.
Collectors prize the Power Wagon for its historical significance and utilitarian design. The early "flat-fender" models produced from 1946 to 1968 are the most iconic and desirable. Their simple, rugged construction makes them a favorite for both faithful restorations and extensive restomod projects, which often include modern diesel engines and creature comforts.
The market for Power Wagons is diverse. An average sale price around $45,000 hides a wide spectrum of vehicles, from worn-out farm trucks to six-figure custom builds. While original, numbers-matching examples are valuable, the highest prices are often achieved by professionally executed restomods that combine classic looks with modern performance and reliability.
Buying Tips
- Rust is the biggest enemy. Check the frame rails, cab corners, floors, and the bottom of the bed for corrosion.
- Drivetrains are often swapped. If it's advertised as original, verify the flathead inline-6 engine and 4-speed transmission are present.
- Inspect the quality of any modifications. Poorly done engine swaps or suspension lifts can lead to major safety and reliability issues.
- The original Braden winch is a valuable option. Check for its presence and condition, as sourcing or rebuilding one can be costly.
Prices range from $1,400 for non-running projects to $405,000 for elite restorations and custom restomods.
