Vintage Power Wagon Parts

Is there any company that re-manufactures vintage Power Wagon Parts? I'd be interested in the chrome decals from the 1946-1970ish 1 ton, 5 lug, flat fender Power Wagons.

I was also out to lunch today, and found 2 old Power Wagons, a 1946 and a 1964. The '64 is almost completely apart but is all there, and the '46 is complete with dump bed. The '46 also has a pto driven winch, and the owner has a spare. I don't know what to look for on these old trucks, but I'd at least like to know that there's someone like LMC trucks out there that still makes parts for these old trucks. I'm thinking the '46 could remain stockish and the '64 could get a 4bt Cummins/NV4500/NP241 conversion and be a driver.

What would one expect to pay for the two trucks, as a package deal? The owner has several spare parts, such as wheels and tires and I also saw a spare bellhousing and clutch as well.

My wheels are turning, I'm also looking at 24 foot enclosed trailers as well.

You just mentioned the company in your thread title!

Vintage Power Wagons is the name of the company. They are probable the best source for the old Power Wagon parts you're going to find. The chrome decals/emblems you're looking for are not cheap. Every separate word is $179/each. So, for "Dodge Power Wagon" on both sides will cost you $1074!

Without seeing anything, I can't make an estimate. Got any pics of the trucks?

I'll get some pictures here soon. If just the chrome emblems alone are worth that much, I might pull the trigger. I spoke to the owners son, and he wants them gone but hasn't put any adds out there. I'd also like to get them out of the snow that we've got coming.

I'll stop by again today, should have pictures by tonight if my afternoon doesn't run long.

With the price that the son mentioned, I'd make my money back selling the emblems alone.

I did get more pictures, but these were the only ones I could get to upload. The '46 is the red truck, and the '64 is the engine and frame. It does have power steering, there's a pump sitting on top of the motor and the lines run to the steering box.

If he wants them gone, show up with cash and offer a $1k for both of them.

Have you looked on ebay? I have found a couple older emblems.
