1950 Dodge B2B Half-Ton Pickup for Sale

This B2B is powered by one of the longest-lived and most respected engines in Chrysler history: the short-skirt flathead straight-six that was used in Dodge (and Plymouth) light trucks from 1933 through 1960.

With its crankshaft running in four main bearings, the engine had a compression ratio of 6.5:1, received its fuel via a single downdraft

one-barrel carburetor, and was rated at 95 horsepower. The engine in this B2B is said to be original to the truck, and received a mechanical rebuild in 2007, having since been driven only about 150 miles. The manual choke must be engaged for a cold start, which may produce a small amount of smoke if the truck has been sitting for an extended period.

He adds that the column-shifted three-speed manual transmission can be balky when cold but otherwise changes gears easily. Leaks from the powertrain are described as negligible. The stock engine bay presents cleanly, with surface corrosion visible on the exhaust manifold. The repaint of this Dodge was completed in 2019, using Limco Low VOC

Industrial single stage urethane in gloss black. The only current flaw is said to be the presence of dust particles in the paint that were not caught by the filtering system in the spray booth. The finish is free of scratches and chips.
