Keep in mind this truck is 72 years old, it is in great shape and restoration is not complete.This is a survivor before Ford shut down production to turn over their factory for the war effort. The only produced these for a few months. Vehicle is sold as is. The engine runs strong and I believe it is the original Flathead V8, it was changed over to 12 volt. The following has been done mechanically: I have replaced the complete fuel system, new gas tank, sending unit, fuel lines, fuel pump, spark plugs & wires and carburetor. The wiring has all been replaced except the front end light harnesses's. Re-cored radiator, upper & lower radiator hoses replaced, radiator pipes replaced with stainless steel, new thermostats, new batteries(2 6 volt batteries included) new starter and and original starter. New motor mounts. All hoses and belts have been replaced. New water pump. Instrument cluster was completely rebuilt & re calibrated like new. New head light switch and harness, starter button. Original heater, no leaks Floor panels patched(see pictures) Needs wiper motor, New hinge pins & bolts. 4 almost new white wide wall tires with little wear, other than me test driving. I have over $5200. in receipts for parts and items that have been repaired or replaced. I have NOS muffler, stainless grill "jail bars", chrome plated hood latch assembly, chrome left mirror, new running boards, new tail gate, headliner and interior kit with panels. Dimmer switch. These repairs seems to have been done by the previous owner: Brake lines and brakes, exterior work , wood floor for bed with stainless strips(see picture) rear bed corners by tailgate. Some rear spring leaf's have been removed to lower. I have these also. It appears to have the original blue paint and then the dark green as seen in the picture. The body does need some work but I feel it wouldn't take much to get it ready. I have additional pictures that I can send. If interested please email me. I . |

USPS releases hot rod stamps to speed up your delivery
Sun, 08 Jun 2014After one of the worst winters in recent memory for much of the country, summer is finally here. It's time to drop the top, open the sunroof or at least put down the windows and take a long drive. The United States Postal Service is celebrating the season's sun in automotive style with two new hot rod Forever stamps.
Both stamps depict classic '32 Ford hot rods. One shows the car from the front at a low angle in red (pictured above), while the other depicts the car from the back in black with flames running down the side.
To introduce the new stamps on their first day of availability, the USPS went straight to the source at the National Street Rod Association Street Rod Nationals in York, PA. They were unveiled by Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, Car Crazy host Barry Meguiar and NSRA Special Events Director Jerry Kennedy.
Ford Transit production fires up, American Pickers among first takers
Wed, 30 Apr 2014Not long ago, the History Channel showed a seemingly unending stream of World War II documentaries, but it made a switch a few years ago to include an increasing mix of 'reality' programming. American Pickers was one of the early attempts at this new formula, with cameras following hosts Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz around the country in a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter as they tracked down collectibles and "rusty gold" for their Iowa shop, Antique Archeology. The show has since gone on to become one of the channel's most popular programs.
Starting in the new episode airing tonight, the affable hosts will swap their Benz for a 2015 Ford Transit, a nicely timed bit of marketing to coincide with the launch of the model's assembly at the Blue Oval's Kansas City Assembly Plant, which also kicks off this week. Ford is touting 2,000 new jobs created as part of its $1.1-billion investment in the plant.
No strangers to product placement, the guys from American Pickers say their switch away from the Sprinter is because they wanted to balance cargo capacity and fuel economy to make the most of their cross-country jaunts. They opted for the largest Transit available with a long wheelbase, extended body and high roof, giving them 487 cubic feet of cargo room. Hauling power comes from a 3.2-liter, five-cylinder diesel engine with 190 horsepower and 346 pound-feet of torque and a six-speed automatic transmission with rear-wheel drive. Fittingly, the van wears the same Antique Archaeology logo over white paint as their old Sprinter.
