Dodge WC-62 je vůz určený pro přepravu osob a materiálu o nosnosti 1,5 tuny s náhonem 6x6. Pro výrobu vozidla bylo využito 95% dílů používaných pro menší vozy Dodge o nosnosti 0,75 tuny (tedy série počínaje vozem WC-51). Vozy měly silnější motor řady T223. Vozidel bylo vyrobeno do konce války více než 43000 ks. Byly používány všemi spojeneckými armádami.


Verze Dodge WC-63 je opět to samé jako verze WC-62, je opět navíc opatřena navijákem.

Obě verze se ukázaly v květnu 2005 na Letenské pláni v Praze. Jako u ostatních verzí opět dobře patrný rozdíl v navijáku.

I would add that the WC-62/63 was not primarily designed for transporting people and materials so much as for hauling smaller guns plus transporting operators. Unfortunately, the engine, although more powerful than the three-quarter was a bit weaker in the field. But on the road it runs like a sling, only the auxiliary gearbox squeaks terribly.
