Dodge WC-58 Truck, Radio, 3/4 ton, 4x4 with winch (G-502)

Dodge produced the WC-58 3/4 ton 4x4 Radio Car, part of the Dodge 3/4 ton WC series of trucks. The Radio Car was the same design as the WC-57 Command Reconnaissance vehicle with the addition of racks for a large radio set behind the front seats and additional wiring. Like the WC-57, the WC-58 Radio Car was equipped with a winch. Like the other Reconnaissance Cars, its distinctive profile made it a target, and production was soon phased out.
