    WC-10 Identification

    I may have located a Dodge WC-10 1/2 ton Carryall. I would like to know some of the obvious things to look for to ensure it is a Military carryall other than a Civilian. Right now it is covered with snow and pretty inaccessible, so I have not inquired about it. I know sometimes the data...

    Muffler Modification.
