Pre dates the 525, it is actually an old Holmes "Road King" slightly lighter main frame.

fuzzy buzzard Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 My info claims Road Kings were built 1939-40. That bed had seen a lot of business before it landed on the Dodge!

Big change on my pops was going to a tow sling from the bang bar and tire in the early 1960's.

Rob Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I worked a couple garages that still used the chains and tire setup in the late 1970's as there were still a lot of older cars with frames under them on the roads then. 1 Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
