Hello Everyone,
Greetings from Northern Ontario, this is my first post and the first I have ever come across what I think might be a 3/4 APT with a lot of modifications. This journey started by looking for a truck to plow some snow and I have the good fortune to now own this one and another parts truck that still has its 3/4 APT dash tag, but they both need a ton of work. I have owned a 51 M38 for 17 years, but never anything else military. Truck one has what I presume to be a 54 Ford Cab grafted onto the original APT dash/cowl morgan 1039.jpg morgan 1044.jpg morgan 1057.jpg morgan 1058.jpg The data plate is missing and the frame has strange splices in it that look very neat..almost factory morgan 1105.jpg Is that a factory frame shortening or something really well done back in the day? As always I have tons of questions ![]() |

Few more pictures

I know it doesn't look like much but there is really some incredible detail in joining the cabs. This truck worked hard every day of its life I think, and it has plowed a lot of snow apparently. |

Ok here are some numbers
There is a tag by the passenger door mid way up from the floor that has the number #4230-2380 stamped in it. The serial number in the cab on the Dodge data plate is a frightening 91166613, if you are superstitious that is :0 morgan 1056.jpg The engine numbers are T149E 13190 If anyone has an idea of where I might get a hood anywhere in Ontario/Manitoba, or even shipped that would be helpful. |

The rad appears to be a direct fit, but doesn't have the center fill at the top, rather off to the side.
It doesn't look hacked in at all, and appears to bolt right in to the factory location but the rad cover has been removed, though I did find it when scrounging around. Part number on the Rad with the DPCD Logo on it 1787376 CD DP B64 CD morgan 1083.jpg morgan 1039.jpg morgan 1062.jpg morgan 1068.jpg morgan 1069.jpg |

So I have a great running 1952 Canadian 236 and it's 4 speed trans from a 2 ton truck
Does anyone know if the trans from the 2 ton is the same as the APT transmission. Or will it even fit in place of the original. The 2 ton trans has a pto that drives a hydraulic pump for the dump bed and I would like to use that to power the snow blade.(until I start a resto next year) |
