1956 Dodge C-4-B ½ Ton Pickup – Rare Classic with Timeless Utility
Step into true 1950s Americana with this 1956 Dodge C-4-B ½ Ton Pickup—a beautifully preserved example of the final run of Dodge's beloved C-Series trucks. Powered by the dependable 230.2 CID inline 6-cylinder engine with 115 horsepower and paired to a three-on-the-tree manual transmission, this truck captures a pivotal moment in Dodge's design history—right before the Power Wagons and Sweptline styles took over.
The 1956 Dodge C-4-B marks the end of the second-generation C-series pickups, with this year introducing major changes like a switch to 12-volt electrical systems, updated badging, and the phasing out of the low-side pickup box. Known for their rugged construction and unique "Pilot House" cab design, these trucks are increasingly rare—especially in such clean and well-kept condition.
Originally launched in 1954, the C-series was a leap forward in driver comfort and cab accessibility. These trucks are now sought after by collectors and enthusiasts for their balance of early post-war charm and working-class durability. Own a piece of history with this charming and rare 1956 Dodge C-4-B Pickup. Whether you're a collector, a vintage truck enthusiast, or just someone who appreciates old-school craftsmanship, this Dodge delivers authenticity and rugged beauty in equal measure.
