1937 Dodge Model MC 1/2 Ton Panel Delivery

This model Dodge Panel Delivery has a distinctive double level, or humpback, originally introduced by Dodge in 1933 and continued in production until 1938. Although it was a clever way of providing more room in the load-carrying compartment in the rear of the truck, it also gave the humpbacks a distinctive appearance and set them apart. Today these humpbacks are prized by collectors.
