1941 Ford Pickup with a 1947 Flathead Ford 59-AB Engine. All "Henry" Steel. Originally from California. I've owned the truck for five years. Selling as is. Garage kept, never driven in the rain or snow (winter for that matter). No rust or pitting. Solid and very dry truck. Truck is a driver, not a show or trailer queen.
Recently shipped to Newport, RI due to change of duty station. Can be used as a driver, converted back to a stock show car, or made into a hot rod. Previous owner purchased truck in the 1960s in California. Unknown when the engine was replaced, but the original pre-war probably had sand pockets and could not be rebuilt. Previous owner painted truck, with only minor bodywork needed, in the 1990s. Original color was Tuscan tan. It is now Green, enamel with no clear coat, and looks good for a 20 year old paint job. I purchased the truck in 2010 in California, and mechanically and electrically upgraded/fixed it with the following:
- Stock transmission, rebuilt with new internals, synchros, clutch in 2010
- Stock rear end
- Stromberg carburetor
- Holley fuel regulator
- Lindertech “Bubba’s” built Petronix electronic crab ignition/distributor
- New cam seals front and rear, no leaks
- Red’s Headers, ceramic coated
- Red’s Valve Changeover Kit with adjustable lifters installed 2010
- Removed and decked intake and heads in 2010, installed new copper gaskets, no leaks
- Replaced water pumps (new from Bob Drake), all new fuel lines.
- New Walker Radiator in 2010
- Powermaster 9508 XS Torque Starter from Summit Racing
- “Keep-It-Clean” 12 volt wiring harness install in 2010, and truck completely rewired. Running GM alternator
- New Stainless Steel Fuel tank installed in 2010 (Bob Drake Forever Tank)
-Rebuilt steering box with new gaskets.
-Rebuilt all four drum brakes, and installed new break lines. New master cylinder (from Bob Drake)
- Glide Engineering Seat, with custom vinyl upholstery
Extra parts that come with the truck:
- The original radiator
- 2 extra gauge clusters (mostly complete)
- Original seat (was recovered in tan by previous owner)
- Stock Ford carburetor that came on the truck
- Two spare, but non-operable, stock plunger starters.
- Spare trim pieces, rear brake lights, gauges, mirrors, window/door parts, etc.
Suspension is stock, which previous owner installed :
- Single front cross leaf spring lowered 2 inches.
- Single rear cross leaf spring lowered 1 inch.
- Houdaille Lever Style shocks
I also have receipts, books, color charts, and other related Ford and Flathead stuff that will go along with the truck.
