That is a "C" cab or series Dodge truck. The one in the picture is between a 1960 and 1968 model. They changed to a single head light on each side in 1969. The door handle changed also in 1970. The 1971 model door handle was lower and was a push button style.
My Father bought a trucking business from an Uncle in 1971. The business was an OLD GMC V-6 single axle lime truck, a 1963 Ford tandem dump truck and a 1971 Dodge C-800 tri-axle dump truck(only eight months old). By the time my Dad quit trucking in the early 1980s he had over 15 of the Dodge "C" cab trucks. He likes how the fenders opened for servicing the truck. He switched to the Ford Louisville trucks after Dodge quit making large trucks.
A friend of his bought the last Dodge C-800 gas tandem sold in the US in 1975. The C series frame would not stand the stress the "NEW" anti-lock brakes caused on the frame. The early system shut the air completely off to the sliding wheel for a short time. Made for a real jerky stop. They sold them in Canada for two more years and completely quit in 1977. They only made school bus chassis and camper chassis units into the mid 1980s.

The window was dirty and I was driving into the evening sun. It was hard to see and it was my first pass down the field. I got the tractor so stuck that the underside of the tractor was resting on the ground. My uncle wanted
