Not only a diesel motor but a late model cab as well. Front is civilian as well as it has the chrome grill strips and the mudguards are not cut out to take the larger military wheels and tyres. I believe (but am not 100% sure) that this style front lasted till about 1948. Front wheels seem odd as well from what I can see of them. I wonder if the cab and front body panels were placed on another 50's truck whose body had seen better days? Not a real rare Dodge vehicle even in original form.
