1941 Ford 1/2 ton pickup project. Mostly complete. Good '41 Ford pickup title in my name. No rear fenders, but if you are not super concerned about originality, fiberglass fenders are pretty cheap from Speedway. Hood trim does not appear to have any damage and I think it will polish up well enough for anything other than a show truck. The dash trim and gauges appear to be good. It also has a pretty nice vintage heater under the dash. Good black seat that fits pretty well but does not appear to be original to the truck. I also have what I believe to be the correct seat and underneath the cheap vinyl covers it appears to have been upholstered with a blue and white mexican blanket. The doors and hood appear to be pretty good. The fenders, box, and tailgate have some pretty easily repairable rust. The cab floor is the only rust that is bad, in my opinion. The glass is pretty good, although the windshield does have small scratches that you don't notice until you're up close. The gas tank appears to be good. It does not have a radiator. The running gear is from a 1936 Ford car. The frame has a couple spots on the top of the main rails that need repaired and it is pitted. The motor is basically complete, but stuck. The transmission goes into 2 amd 3, but won't go into R and 1. I had the top off this summer and it did not really look bad inside. The rearend has spacers in place of the center housing piece, so it can roll around fine (it had a stuck pinion). Wide 5 wheels. The rear drums are good. Somebody broke the front drums (I assume they were locked up). What is in the pictures is what I have. I had big dreams because I always wanted one of these, but after I set it together I figured out I'm too big to drive it comfortably. That is the only reason it is for sale.
$5.500

I may consider old car, truck, Harley trades, but I would rather have the cash.
