Those old Dodge trucks were a thing of beauty! I always thought that the ones in the late thirties to early forties were very similar to the Chevys, with the big curved fenders etc. The fluid drive thing was a bit different. I think that they were a fluid coupling, designed in the days before torque multiplication was used.
They used a flathead in their cars and trucks for many many years. I think that the truck used them to about 1957.
