1959 W200 Power Giant Power Wagon By Ron Reichhart

This is my 1959 W 200 Power Giant Power Wagon which i restored from the ground up. It has a 230 flathead six engine with an NP420 4 speed tranny driving 4:10 gears. It's painted base/clear in 59 Dodge Truck Red after many hours of prep. The original owners widow told me they used it in their construction business.

The original color was Buckskin Tan but was painted green when I found it in a barn in 1998. The frame had been cut off behind the cab with everything from the cab back missing. I found a frame, bed and rear axle to replace the missing pieces. It's one of 216 W 200s built in 59 with a 230 and it's a lot of fun to drive. I've even had on a trailride in Vermont twice.
