1940s Dodge Milk Truck Rat Rod ~ Padiddle!

This unique 1948 Milk Truck originally built by Dodge and Holland Dairy work horse has been put back on the streets — with a few borrowed parts — and now this special delivery rat rod is known as the Poverty Express.

The owner of the truck had it for about 3 years and was unsure of what would come of it — he had a vision for it that came to life after being chosen for a build off in Arkansas.

The truck has had 21 inches cut off the bottom, and has the top chopped 9 1/2 inches in the front.

It’s got 1934 Chevy sedan fenders in the front and a pair of Ford Anglia fenders in the rear and the grill was custom made from a pair of 1940 Dodge doors…
