Historical context
The Dodge 3/4 ton Command Cars were produced from 1942 to April 1944 as command vehicles for senior officers. Due to their recognisable profile they were an easy target and were replaced by the less conspicuous Jeep. In total, 21,156 WC56, 6,010 WC57 and 2,344 WC58 examples were built.
