Details

This spectacular Power Wagon has been completely restored to show-quality standards. The Dodge W300 Utiline was the biggest pickup in the 4-wheel-drive line with a spacious 9-foot box on a 133-inch wheelbase. The W300 model is seldom seen, unlike the WM300 Military Type. This Power Wagon spent its life in Arizona, which is documented with a title, previous registrations and ads that are included. It was purchased in 2014 by a gentleman from Maine who did a frame-off, nut-and-bolt-restoration. The restoration was completed in 2019 and has only been driven a few hundred miles since completion. It was driven on a 75-mile trip and performed great. It retains most of the original sheet metal. The front fenders, rear fenders, front panel of bed and front panel of tailgate were replaced. The exterior is very straight with great gaps lines throughout. It was finished in the correct color of Pine Green code #51, which is beautiful. The paintwork is high-quality throughout. The front grille, mirrors, front bumper, rear bumper and wheel lips were painted a creamy white, which really complements the green color. The factory didn’t offer a rear bumper, so a 1963 W300 front bumper was modified and added to improve the appearance. All the glass, rubber seals, emblems and lights were replaced new. The truck sits on 9.00-16 LT tires, which look great. The factory only offered one spare wheel and tire so, another one was added to improve the appearance. The rear bed was treated with ash wood, green steel strips and tie-down hooks. The interior cabin was completely stripped and painted the body color. The rearview mirror bracket and door panels were painted white to match the exterior pieces. Everything in the interior was restored or replaced, such as the headliner, sun visors, rearview mirror, gauges, dash hardware, steering wheel, door hardware, bench seat, heater box and rubber floor mats. The painted engine compartment is highly detailed throughout with many correct parts. It’s powered by the original matching-numbers 318ci V8 engine. The engine was completely rebuilt and runs excellent. The engine is coupled to a 4-speed synchro-shift model 420 manual transmission, which was standard on this model. The power is transferred to the rugged front and rear Spicer axles that are full-floating with hypoid drive for quiet operation. The posi-traction rear end has 488 gears. A two-speed transfer case was standard on all models, which allowed the driver to select two-rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, whichever suits the terrain. The frame was made strong to handle the twisting stresses of rough terrain. This frame has the original VIN stamp. The undercarriage is very nicely detailed throughout. Everything underneath has been restored or replaced, including the braking and suspension components. Included with this truck is a 2017 Kawasaki Brute Force 300 ATV, also known as Power Wagon 300 ATV. This one-owner 2017 Kawasaki Brute Force 300 ATV is in excellent condition with limited use since new. It was customized to match the 1963 Dodge W300 Power Wagon. The plastic was painted 1963 Dodge truck color Pine Green #51. The wheels were also painted green. The brush guard, front rack, rear rack and wheel lips were painted Beige. A red W300 emblem was added to the center of the brush guard, and custom stickers were added throughout. A custom flagpole holder was also added. It’s powered by a 271cc 4-stroke, 1-cylinder SOHC engine. It has a 2-speed automatic transmission with reverse. This ATV looks great with the 1963 Dodge W300 Power Wagon and attracts a ton of attention. **SOLD AS A PAIR WITH LOT#1273.1**
