Ford Other Pickups 1937 Description

WELL HERE GOES. I'VE HAD THIS TRUCK ABOUT 25 YEARS. WHEN I BOUGHT IT, IT WAS COMPLETE BUT IN THE 25 YEARS I HAVE TAKEN JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING APART AND SAVED MOST OF IT. THE ORIGINAL ENGINE IS LONG GONE SO ABOUT 20 YEARS AGO I BOUGHT AN ENGINE OUT OF A FORD PICKUP THAT SUPPOSEDLY RAN GOOD. BE CAREFUL WHAT PEOPLE TELL YOU. AS YOU CAN SEE I INSTALLED IT AND REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND STARTED TO GET READY TO START IT AND THOUGHT I'D BETTER CHECK THE COMPRESSION. WELL NUMBER 6 CYLINDER WAS DEAD SO I TORE IT APART AND AN ALMOST BURNED UP VALVE WAS STARING AT ME. FURTHER THERE WAS A CRACK THROUGH THE EXHAUST SEAT AND PART WAY DOWN THE CYLINDER. THAT DID IT FOR ME. IT IS FREE AND HAS DECENT COMPRESSION ON THE OTHER CYLINDERS. THERE IS NO RING RIDGE AND THE PISTONS SAY STD (STANDARD ON THE TOP OF THEM). OUTSIDE OF THE NUMBER 6 PROBLEM PROBABLY A FAIR ENGINE WITH THE ORIGINAL ENGINE PAINT. THAT'S THE ENGINE. PICTURED ARE THE PARTS INCLUDING A NOS KING PIN SET AND AN NOS TIE-ROD END KIT. THERE IS A COMPLETE REAREND ATTACHED TO THE WALL IN THE PICTURES (YOU CAN BARELY SEE IT). IT TURNS FREE. THE REAR END IN THE TRUCK IS LOCKED UP. I DIDN'T TAKE PICTURES OF THE WHEELS AND TIRES BUT THERE IS 6 OF THEM AND THE RUBBER IS IN POOR CONDITION. NOT TOO MUCH RUST I FEEL BUT YOU DECIDE. THE GRILL IS ESPECIALLY NICE WITH ALL THE STAINLESS GRILL PIECES. BOTH STAINLESS FRONT HUBCAPS ARE THERE. THE WINDSHIELD REGISTER WORKS FINE AND THE VENT AS WELL. IF YOU DO BUY IT I WANT YOU TO TAKE IT ALL NOT JUST THE COOL CAB, DOORS, GRILL, HOOD PIECES AND LEAVE THE REST FOR ME TO GET RID OF. THE TEMPTATION IS TO PUT ALL THE COOL PIECES ON A PICKUP FRAME AND THAT'S FINE BUT I'M MOVING SO IT'S ALL GOT TO GO. MAYBE I'LL FIND OTHER COOL STUFF AND JUST GIVE IT TO YOU. WHEN YOU GET HERE WE'LL LOOK THROUGH A BUNCH OF STUFF. (E.G. FORD PICKUP TRANSMISSION, ENGINES ETC, ETC) I MIGHT WANT A LITTLE FOR SOME OF THE STUFF. WE'LL WORK IT OUT. OH YES, IT HAS A NUMBERS MATCHING CLEAR TITLE IN MY NAME.
