Well, I guess I’m back to researching the year again! I read somewhere that the allies did not stay long in Nurnburg. Mainly just through the war crime trails in 1945 and a few others in 1946 because the city lay in ruins. What about the tractor/Jeep in the background? Would that provide any information that might narrow the year? I might be able to figure out the tire size if I can find pictures of both 1946-47 and 1948 to compare to my picture?

I’m so much closer to knowing about this picture than I was this morning. It’s progress and even if I can’t narrow the year down more than this I’m still able to put it in the 1940’s which I could not do before this! Actually, the history of the car and the military has been very interesting for me. You just never know when being able to identify a 1946 Dodge Custom will come in handy in life!!!

Thanks for sharing.
