Images of a 1943 WC54 Ambulance

Hello Y'all,

I'd like to share a few images I took of a friends 1943 Dodge WC54 a few weeks ago.
There are more on her website, http://www.command-car.com .

Enjoy,
Mark

You sure these weren't taken in 1945? Great truck and backgroung!

Nice looking truck! Pretty cool looking building too

Thanks!
That building is the "Schloss Nordkirchen" near Münster (built between 1705 and 1734, so its relativly new).

You're right - very nostalgic looking with the buildings in the back, and the tone of the photo. If they were taken in 1945, though, the tires would be NDTs, the ambulance would probably show a few signs of heavy use, there would be craters everywhere, and half the buildings in the rear of the photo would be in ruins.

That's a great looking WC by the way. Thanks for the pics!

Nice restoration, really.

Its too bad though that this WC-54 has post WWII Norwegian Army tyres on its wheels.
For the sake of having it as it was, I would install ND military tyres.

Small detail though,
Bart

I wish we had a bit of 'scenery' like that here! Beautiful! Your WC is great shape. Good find!
