Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
How about an F series... Is that considered "early"? If so, here's a photo of our '51 F-1.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
This was destined to have an early flathead V8 untill I found a complete stock chassis this past summer... looks like it'll end up mostly stock now, whenever I can actually get around to working on it...

There are several photos on my personal profile of my '40 roadster pickup truck that you are all invited to view. Posting pictures in these posts is a pain unless you have them on photobucket.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Hey Chris,
What brakes are you using - If you haven't purchased anything yet, contact Richard (Early V8 Garage) who posts here. Great resource! Also, whose dropped axle are you using? Watch for interference issues. 'Lil Red looks like she has a dropped axle but just weak springs. Front spring nearly flat across axle but seems to ride well. Jack 34pu |

I already purchased Richard's kit to do hydrallic brakes. I already have the axle in, everything works well. My Brother dropped the axle for me.

My 1950 F1. I've been a fan of Sheridan Blue Fords since the 1950's. Hauls parts, lumber, guest beds, Christmas trees., bricks, etc. Don't ya just enjoy being on the road in these old pickups?

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Let's start with Bullet; built from 12 cars and 14 trucks. Drove it from 2003 until sold it last year. Then the black 40 pkp; another flathead, which now lives in MS. Drove it, too, for a couple years. I've had shop truckS(two or more!) for the last 5 or 6 years. Max driveable at same time was 3 or 4... a man has got to have BACKUPS! That's what I tell my lovely wife.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Here's another pkp I used in 2006-2007. Hate to admit it had a dastardly SBC with 3 twos and a gear drive. I didn't do it! Trk now in GA with a pal of mine.

This one is still in service. Ford in a Ford but a little later Ford than preferred. Best dang 4 inch chop I've seen to have not cut the top and lengthened it. Still don't know how whoever did it did it!

The F-7 is my former fire truck. It has the 296 OHV version of the 317 Lincoln engine and a 5th gear OD transmission. The 3rd picture is from a show I attended in 2009.

You see what Ryan did with my 40 Ford truck as an example for the ultimate grocery getter/parts hauler! Notice on this thread that there is more 40/41s posted than any other. Hands down they are the best looking! Ken

Looking at your truck is like looking at your new born baby. No baby is any better looking than your own. All trucks are beautiful.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Not many of us Fornbarners, have their first car/truck, but I am one of the fortunate few. I drove my '34 pickup while working at HJ Heinz, in the lab in Leamington Ontario, after buying it in 1957. He is back on the road again, and is now called Merlot. The colour pic is Merlot talking to a younger Flathead Truck who works for a living, putting out fires! Byron.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Hi my wife an I where at Deuce days also. Many people there and countless cars .We had an old 46 ford 1/2 ton flat black kind of stuck out like a sore thumb in with the high dollar 32`s. Did the Courtenay run and had a blast. It was great.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
O.K. I think I have this figured out. Here are some of the trucks I have owned and/or built over the years. My favorite was my big red, a copy of Dad's work truck from the 30's. The most fun was the Huckster I built for the kids. The most challenging was the before and after 29 PU. Current project is a 30 PU....my last major project...maybe.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Dad's barn find '29 AA last April. It hadn't been started or moved since 1976. The owner actually resided the barn around the Old Girl at one point. I'm proud to say that I drove her out of that old milking parlor!

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
My father bought this one back in the late fifties. It's the first vehicle I ever drove - at age 11! I still enjoy it as much as ever. It's been maintained/painted over the years, but never restored.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Thank you Flat-V8. I have been tinkering with it to the best of my abilities and its a pretty cute little ole truck. Took it around the block a couple of times, but, its quite cantankerous to stop. But, I have some '40 juice brakes that should fix that right up.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
I would have loved to have seen more 38 39 PUs. I guess they are the least popular.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Years ago when I had a real nice 1938 P\U I hated the look of it, so I kept the whole running gear & frame that were near mint, and put a 36' big truck cab on it and sold the 38' body. Now I wish I had it back, that 38'-39' look grows on you! The guy that bought the body slapped it on a late model Ford Ranger chassie, and was on the road in 2 weeks.

Nice! I thought I liked it before. It's even better now after seeing the engine photo. '51 Ford pickups are my favorite old trucks. Yours is dead on perfect! |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
I've posted it before but it's still the best photo I have of my two early Fords. '25 Model T Roadster Pickup and '39 V8 Pickup.
Until the '39 is running, the '25 will continue hauling the concrete and lumber. |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
A 1941 Ford fire truck used a Hunter Field during World War II has a new home at the Mighty Eighth museum in Pooler. It has been restored to its World War II condition and will take its place next to the museum's B-17.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
This is a picture of my high school hot rod from 1962. The shiny picture is how it looks today. The sad part for me is, I haven't owned it since 1973.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
It was so long ago, it seems like it was a dream. However, with my current ride, I'm living a dream that was smoldering in me for many years. Life is good.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Here are pictures of my 28 roadster pickup towing a 34 pickup my friend had purchased in 1983. I still have the roadster pickup, the 34 pickup has been gone for years.
The 33 one ton I have had for about 11 years. It's never been restored, has had one repaint and I use it as a work truck. One picture is hauling my 34 4-door sedan and the other is taking down an old blacksmiths shop framed with Model T and Model A frame rails The 50 pickup my dad bought new. I took my driving test in it in 1966. Have completly rebuilt it with a 283, automatic transmission, 9" rear-end, and a dropped axel. I drove it to work everyday for several years.

The work truck is a 49 Merc. When I got it it still had it's original knobby tires.
At just 44,000 miles it's a rare bird but that doesn't mean it's babied. . |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
If a '53 really qualifies as "early" (It IS a flathead.) scroll down to the thread with the tag line:"Flathead Block? which one is beast?" A friend posted some shots of my '53 with a 337 "beast" in it. It's onthe 2nd page. If I was smart enough, I'd move them over to this thread.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Hi I just did join the Barn moments a go and It is going to take me some time to get organized and in the fast lane. it's The Beater Trucks that really cought my eye. Up here in the Napa Valley," The FORD BARN steping stone" we have ben calling them " VALLEY TRUCKS". I will work up a photo log of the locales from the wine country a little bit later.
My entry came to me some 35 years ago From Southern California. (San Pedro, Lomita) aera I'll check the specifics a bit lateor. The Builder Started with a very streight original tan paint 40 Pickup. I think he must have ben in the aircraft busyness judging by all the stainless work, craftsmanship and inovations. I will get back with better details later. for now i am going to try with some photographs. Need to figure out the atachement prosses and spell check.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Byron, I missed your post from 2/17. Thanks, I'm glad Amos was helpful....and your Merlot is surely just plain gorgeous....if I were chosing a color for one of these today it would be Merlot's color or Washington blue....however the red will do for now. Amos is off the road for a bit...lost 2nd gear a couple months ago. Waiting for my ship to come in (banana boat from Panama apparently) or an infusion of $$ and/or ambition (would be nice to have both but they seldom arrive at the same time!) to haul out the motor and transmission. Probably sometime in the Spring. Got Clem up on stands now too, redoing wiring harness...mostly original and quite a mess...hope to have it done by the barners meet in a couple weeks. I'm still working, lots of hrs, so do most of the work on weekends when I can find the time.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Wow great trucks. In the 80's dad and I saved a old 46 Ford panel truck from an ol wrecking yard. We totally rebuilt the engine from a shop manual. She ran great with that v-8 flathead. We painted it up royal blue. It had the spare tire that mounted in the passenger side of the body. It was one of those great fun projects, then after she was done we missed working on her (that was alot of the fun) We ended up trading it for a newer pick-up. I sure wish I could track her down now. We lived in Tulare Ca. at the time. She was all stock. I'm just hoping she's still out there (and that she's not been rodded) I'd like to know if anyone out there has seen her around.

I really love this two tone paint job, usually just the fenders are painted a different color than the body on 48-52 pickups.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Ok, I'll weigh in here - here's my 41 as recently purchased:
It's a bit of a Mongrel, it has a 9" rear, the x-members been hached out, and it has no engine and box. It has a later bed whick I am busy narrowing back to the correct width. I am trying to find x-member parts here in the UK but it is proving difficult. I already have Early ford running gear in 3 cars, so I am thinking of retaining the 9" rear it already has, and setting it up with a 312 Y-block and SROD overdrive box I have been saving for just such a project. Outwardly it will end up looking pretty stock, except for 15" wheels and radials. Mart. |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
As a new member here, this thread looks like a good place to introduce myself and post some pictures of my truck. I've had this truck since 1974 and use it to transport grain and wine grapes.
About a year and a half ago, I finally did something to fix it up after just doing minimal maintenance over the years. It got a new wood bed, body work and new paint, engine rebuild, transmission and steering box work, and all new wiring. In the photos you can see before and after. It is pretty much all original with 59ab engine, a 4 speed truck transmission followed by a 3 speed transmission. No 2-speed rear end. Tom |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Here is one of the New Zealand '41/'42 COE's. Saw this one near Nelson about 12yrs ago. Believe it comes from Blenheim in the Sth Island.
There were a number of car & commercial imports during the War era that do not show up on Ford Canada export figures to NZ. They came in for govt. services & agricultural sector. |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Bill Richardson also has one of those in his truck museum, but I havent' seen it in a long time. I read that it was imported by the Air Force.
For interests sake, anyone visiting the bottom half of New Zealand who is into trucks, NEEDS to visit that museum - some amazing trucks in there, including one of 3(?) remaining 1940 Dodge Airflow Texaco tankers. There's much more to Invercargill than Burt Munro! |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Surfing in the web recently found a photo of a truck, I think is a ford 32´ the curiously of the photo is the inscription on the sides ( Holinger- Weidmann) (quesos y hielo) (Humboldt, provincia de Santa Fe). Why? because I live in the province Santa Fe near to the city of Humboldt. (Holinger- Weidmann) the company was selling cheese and ice. When they bought the truck, the company was send a picture and a negative of this truck to the magazine (mundo ford) with the hope that the manager of the magazine publicate the photo...
I never saw a body like this. I don´t know the truck was fabricate in USA or is a modify truck constructed in Argentina. |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Hi Ted,
Finally got time to take some pictures in the cab of my truck. Other than new gauges to replace the old non-working gauges, I haven't done anything to the inside of the cab yet. That's another project. Taking the entire engine cover off is not easy. So just have pictures of the passenger side panel removed. Have to take the passenger seat out to get it out. Didn't take the panel on the driver's side out, but the view is similar. You can see the 2 shift levers for the 2 transmissions. Most engine work is done via one of the side access openings, or for the distributor, by lying on my back and reaching up to unbolt the distributor. Once loose, it takes some work to get it out past the 6 blade truck fan. Tom |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
The Richardson museum is not open to the public but I have been told that they are reasonably responsive to people with a genuine interest.
Of the COEs in NZ I mentioned, one is at the Richardson museum and I am told that the other restored example is still in Blenheim. I don't know what happened to the third. It was complete and in good condition. Apparenly there was another very rusty example but I'm not sure about that. John |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
I think you'd find if you were from the other side of the world and enquired to the right person well in advance you'd have little trouble getting through. The first time I went through there was about '96 and I'm not sure if the Airflow was quite finished at that stage, but Bill Richardson was one of the most genuine people you could ever hope to meet, and gave many a tour personally to clubs and groups. He was a great loss to the community here - as was shown by the procession at his funeral.
I was only recently given a copy of the book that was produced about the museum and I haven't had a chance to read right through it yet, but it's an amazing collection that I hope continues to be well looked after and and added to. And to totally hijack the thread Invercargill is pretty underrated - Queens Park is one of the best things they did when they set out this city - it's part of a 'green belt' that runs right through the middle of the city to right near where I live that will never be built out. On a more serious note, please return some of that Ford tin that you've pinched from down here Ted, I'm in desperate need of some of it right about now! |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Here are two 34 pickups. One photo is a 'driving' shot from the cab of "the beater" and the other is a photo of a friend's pickup that he finished restoring a couple of years back. It is a NZ pickup that had been off the road since 1957. My friend has owned it 25 years or so.
I have been trying to upload other photos but for some reason they are rejected. These are jpg images well within the file size and no different in that respect to the two that have been accepted. |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Hi guys not to poach this thread but I went through the Richardson museum just before Bill died.A bunch of us were touring the south island on our motor bikes and I called Bill and he told us to come around.The most amazing collection and he told us all about each truck and were he found them.As I'm into 37s he had several.He was really into the dual axil trucks and showed us all the different ways drive was transmitted to the back axil.Thornton was one company that ford used but there were others.My film camera shredded the film so I lost all the photos.The most amazing thing was the beauty of the american trucks as compared to the english and european ones.Even in the 50s and 60s the english trucks had no driver comfort what so ever.Cheers Tony.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Pickups have always been my favorite. 'Lil Red in the snow is my current driver. The wine colored was my first 34pu found on a farm in pieces near Huntingdon PA. There was not enough left to put back together original so I did the next best thing to get it back in service. Wish I had her back!
Oh yea - my hair was a little darker then! |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Heres some I've owned in the past
The 46 was a real beater, but ran and drove great. My first flathead V8! Went to England! This 51 F-1 I bought from the original owners nephew. It had a flathead 6 and a non syncro 4 speed. It was super low miled (50,000) and ran drove extremly well and tight. Everything worked. Had to sell it when I got laid off

I have the remains of six of these WWII ford CMP (Canadian Military Pattern) trucks and hope to be able to restore at least one. If I live long enough

Here's the '40 my wife and I restored in the last 2 1/2 years.
It was a beat up old farm truck when we started. We did all the work ourselves. |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Well, since rods are being included in this thread,here is a pic of what I am putting together.The rust was more extensive than it looked when I bought it.The frame was junk, the engine was stuck and the bottom 4inches of the cab and bed needed patches so I am building a rod out of it.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Wow, great photo's of your trucks, checked out all 14 pages...fantastic. I noticed a good collection of 51 F1's, and it makes me regret selling off my 51 F2, which you don't see many of. I'm not sure if they are rare? 3/4 ton, bed was longer than 6ft., can't remember exactlt how long probably 8ft bed. But the mrs. wanted a house. She's happy!

32Dump, I wished my '34 BB Heil Dump looked that good. Also wish I was brave enough and had the four hours to kill crossing out and back across Route 133 at 30mph to have them meet up next summer.

Sorry, haven't noticed - this thread is for EARLY V8 TRUCKS and my '31 model A isn't or not going to be.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Here's my latest addition... I'm back up to 3 40 pkps that I can drive. A man has got to have backups... I keep telling my wife. BTW, we're starting her kitchen remodel job.
I bought this one in York, PA. Seller had it 20 yrs; I contacted the previous owner who had it 31 yrs and had the 53 Merc engine built that's in it today. I'm still chasing the history. I think there was one other owner before we get back to the guy that built the truck and had it pinstriped around 1957. Offenhauser heads and 4 bbl manifold w/390 Holly; complete with Weber carb tuning plate. Mallory distributor, too. Stock 3 spd w/open drive to 1965 Mustang rearend w/2.79 ratio... cruizes at 70-75 MPH according to the seller. It still has the original windshield (both sides) and back glass that were manufactured in Nov of 1939. Can you believe the SAME windshield?!?! I'm having a ball with it. Gets lots of attention. Happy Al

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Pretty, but in my opinion it needs fenders for this forum. Otherwise it should be on the HAMB.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Hi I'm Dave from Canada.There doesn't seem to be a intro forum here so here it goes.I am new to Ford barn,We picked this and a parts truck up in the fall.You guys have a geat site here and enjoy reading,all is very helpful.I have a 32 tudor with a bb chev 4sp and a 34 Ford tudor My pop's somehow claimed which is going to have a factory relieved flatmotor with Canadian aluminum heads. Always looking for for more stuff to bring home,so when I found this I had to have it.It had a seized 302 in it I was going to replace,but was given a minty c69a and trans which that has been stored for 30or40+ years.I plan on running the flatty now and useing a few speed parts we've been collected over the years.
You have a very informative site and It's time to build one of these old flattys up.Glad I found it! Thanks |

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Yes Manual, it was a wash trough and a 3 seater lounge for my shed that I got from the Blue nurses garage sale.
The A is doing sterling duty at the moment,my boy is using it as a go to work car for the last month while he fixes his Torana, He tells me that with the 5.5 head on now it will drag off a 4wd at the lights, I hope its still in one piece when I get it back. Lawrie |

1933 Ford BB Truck- Flat 4 cylinder
Heres my project. Found in an Alabama garage in 2009 where she was parked since 1969. Druuug her out and brought her home. Got her running in a couple of days. Decided to make this project about teaching my sons the way of restoring a piece of history. Word is 280 of these were built but I am not sure. It was built in May 1933. I would like to add all the painting thus far on the truck is supplied by KBS Rust seal- I absolutely love the stuff. |

New acquisition, towing it home. It's drivable but sounds like "Creaky Bones" from all the rattling body panels.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
My 58 GMC had a lot of rattles, it was good fun isolating them one by one and quietening it down. Things like sheared bumper mbolt and broken rad brace were making a lot of noise.
I'd love to be doing the same routine on the creaky bones 41. Mart. |

My wife and I restored this '40 in the last few years.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Hi Everyone, This one was itching to get back to some real work!
License plate is 1947. Also a 1939 that I spotted in the car corall in Hershey 2013. It was very early Saturday morning, having rained hard Friday. Notice the water on the dashboard in the last two shots. Probably been a long time since it sat outside in the rain.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
The model A's an award winner, sort of. Hooter girls pick. The 34 cab is being dug up by Mr. Potter (his real name) discovering "its a wonderful life" The 1951 is a Kansas grain truck powered by an Olds, hoisting a 40 Merc.

I sold the Model A, but kept the bumper for sentimental reasons. If you look in the previous post, its a 3X6 wood beam.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Here's some pictures of early Ford trucks that I have had, or still have. The 50 my Dad bought new.I took my driving test in it in 1966. It was the only vehicle we had until 1960. One picture is of the truck in 1956 the other is how it looks today. The 28 Roadster Pickup when I got it in 1972 and how it looks today. I never quite got it finished. 2 scenes of my back yard in the 1980's. Everything is gone except the 1933 Ford based school bus. Still have it. one picture of my 1946 1-ton. Put a small block Chevy in it and made two trips to California in it. This is a picture of the first load. It's resting now, I don't use it any more. The 33 1-ton I've had for 18 years and I've gotten a lot of use out of it as a work truck. It's all original with one repaint years ago. Under the cowling it is O/D green. The green 32 BB was shipped to England. The last one is my current 33 pickup project.

Well, you can't keep and fix them all, so let someone else have fun, too! Don't want to be called a hoarder. Lol

here's my driver
My 51. I bought it in Kentucky, previously from Wisconsin. It has an old chop and the "belly burners" have been on it a long time. I'd love to know it's early history.

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
My '40. Once the spark issue is chased down, on the road it goes.
I believe it was last licensed in the 1970s, municipal plate on it when I got it was from 1963. |

That truck needs a Ford script flat bed. Be the best looking truck in the parade. Bruce

Re: An Early Ford Truck Post... Let's see them.
Not a fan of stake bodies. Going to leave it like this for now, may do something creative down the line with a vintage, rounded single horse trailer body, turned around. It'd have to be 'just right' tho...
