Old 413 Flathead Six!
I just returned from an AZ vacation last night where I snapped some unusual Dodge Truck pix. They were in the "Ghost Town" abandoned Gold King Mine in Jerome, AZ.
The first shot is a 5 ton Dodge truck with a 413 CI flathead six equipped with dual carbs. A one year only model. The second shot is the big six.
The last two shots are also old Dodge Trucks,, but I didn't write down what year they were. Maybe someone else has an idea.
An interesting fact is that the mine town had a Studebaker repair shop right there near the mine. There were dozens of carcasses of old Studebakers right on the premises. Many Studebaker engines and parts were scattered about.
If you ever get to Arizona, take the time to visit the Ghost Town in Jerome.
