Default Re: Basket case, what do I look for? New to the hobby.

The "Late '31" pickups could come in several configurations:
• Hard (steel) top or soft top
• Indented or flat firewall
• Wide bed or standard narrow bed

Ford had a habit of using up what was in the pipeline when changes were introduced, therefore, a "Late '31" could have any combination of the 3 elements above.

Throw into that the 80+ years of constant change by the many owners of these beasts, and you really don't know what you may or may not have.

My Pickup has an Indented firewall, Hard (steel) top, and a Narrow bed.
