I was at Forte Mondascia one of the many modern fortifications visible in Switzerland

Since it was a special events (10th anniversary since public opening), there were a bunch of historical vehicles. I failed to identify this Dodge, any help is appreciated, since I know close to nothing about USA softskins:

Thanks

Hi Mike,
Are you able to identify the vehicle? I would like to know the exact model.

Thanks

Thanks for the help!

For the Dodge fans among you, there was also a WC-51 at the same event:

As for AFVs, the Museum's own a Panzer 68/88 in running order (plus 20+ pieces of swiss artillery):

I know nothing about Dodge vehicles, so I can't comment. The owner identify it as WC-51. As you said, it could be an hybrid or an incorrect restoration.

Thanks again

That last one looks like a WC51 or a WC56 that had the rear body cut off after the war for use as a truck on a farm. In either case it has the incorrect rear body, probably home made and in correct wheels.

Thanks Mike, I am not into Dodges, I am mostly focused on WW II Axis vehicles and I don't want to spread myself too thin.
I asked since I took the opportunity to take some pictures and I would like to archive them with correct names.
