Does any one recognize this top. I can't find any info on it. It appears possibly to be for awc 64 kd. Thanks

I have a few like it, and the consensus is they are for the KD's. Did it come from that auction with all the Dodge stuff? Does yours have the zipper compartment on top for the doors? Also, are you selling it?

This does not have a zipper, but does have a compartment in the top for the doors. it has the turn style connectors , like on the windshield. I haven't decided if I will sell yet, but I am considering it. It does fit my wc 52, I just have to fabricate the proper brackets.

If this is Kevin, when you make a run a run to the beach I will show you the brackets you need.

Not KDs
The KDs do not have a back panel, they use the front of the ambulance body
i also have a few of these
Dated 1949
they are post war enclosures for the cab
NOT WWII vintage

Ernie
Thanks for the information! I got mine years ago, and was told they were for the WC64, but as you pointed out " why the back panel?... I always though they were made for the weapon carriers by some other country we gave the trucks to.
