BODY
* The top was chopped 6". Plenty of headroom for me. The bomber seats are on a removal platforms to provide more headroom, if needed* The bed was cut at the front and in back of the rear axle to provide perfect proportions. The bed is 5' with the tires centered on the bed.Take a look at the side skirts of the bed; these were made from another bed to keep all the bead moldings flowing right.* The rear roll pan was made from the original bed's metal floor.* Side windows and windshield operate properly. The side windows have clear Lexan already installed and work properly. All felts and bumper stops are there.* Door locks work and outside lock has a operational key* Note all the hard to find parts are there, the covers for the windshield motor, Glove box door, rear view mirror, matching side view mirrors, window cranks, door handles, grille ornament and it is not broken like most are...even the dome light is there...look at the vintage hooks onthe side of the bed!* Tailgate is operational and '37 Fordtaillights were grafted to the rear bed posts.* The body was left bare metal since that is the look I was going for. It is covered with Gibbs and all surface rust is character for the truck.* All welds were grounded and leaded. That is right, lead was used..old school.* Tailgate and bedsides were pinstriped, as it was the belt molding around the cab.* Hood was painted with "Flying since 1936" on the side. Hood is held in place with side mounted pull locks.* Roof has "FORD V8 logo" painted on.* Pay attention to the wood on the Bed. The "Daddy-o Speed Shop" was carved on the wood. Fully custom made...can't find another one like it.*Fuel tank is two B-24 oxygen tanks welded together. Amechanical fuel gauge was added and a pop up fuel cap was used. All the army markings and inspection tags were kept...There is plenty of room on the back of the frame if you would like to use atypical fuel tank...but how much cooler is this one?* Side wood fences can be removed and use as needed. The oak wood is all new same as the bed wood. Aged using a mixture of oil and diesel.* Wood metal strips are new with all hex head stainless steel bolts.*Front spread bar has mounting tap for passing light. Pictured is a king bee light.* Headlight bar came from a '30 model A. Headlights are '30 model A too* All bolts used wereeither hex head button stainless steel or grade 8* All headliner moldings have be stretched and ready to be installed (not pictured but included).* This truck was meant to have a headliner and carpet but not there yet.however, it is ready for it.* Rear window inside molding has been chopped to fit properly (not pictured but included)* New aluminum radiator with side aluminum reservoir tank is installed. Radiator was fitted to the inside of the grill using original transition sides...if that is notenough...the filler neck was moved to be use with the original radiator cap to fill.....all custom.
FRAME

Custom built bobber style truck frame by Riley Automobile. Owner Eric is a great guy to work with and his frames are hand down one of best out there.

The front end is 4" dropped and drilled I beam axle, spring on top. Tie rod behind the axle where it belongs.

The Posies paralell spring kit is meant to give you a nice ride.

As you can see this chassis will set that old cab down low. Fits under the cab in a channeled fashion, but retains the stock floor/subrails.

Cab was mounted using wood and rubber mounts for additional comfort.

SOME ADDITIONAL INFO

* Truck and frame were mocked up and meant for a Ford Flathead 59Ab motor with an S10 T5 transmission and an Offenhauser adapter. I wanted to keep as traditional as possible but reliable too.

If you use the same you should have no problem fitting it in as thefirewall/motor mounts were configure for that application. Any other set up I am unsure of it.

It should be very easy to install any other motor/transmission set up as it has a universal transmission mount.

* There is no electrical on the truck

* The last 3 pictures show the T5 and 59AB mocked up in place.

The last pictures shows the relationship between pedals,T5 Shifter and emergency brake (This was a progress picture). Picture before last shows the lakester headers' current condition after being coated.

* The lakester headers and baffles are included. Again, perfect for a 59AB. These were custom made to fit perfectly around the frame, steeringcolumn and yet sit very tight to the body.

* A set of newly black powder coated Ford wire Wheels are included (Not Pictured). Wheels are 17". The wheels were fully sand blasted and powder coated black.

Truck was mocked up with the idea of 17x550 up front and 17x750 for the rear. The plywood wheels were cut to that size.

* Included is a custom made car cover for the truck. Not pictured but included.

* Ask any questions prior to bidding. If additional pictures are needed just ask...ebay only lets me add 24 pics

* I am sure I am missing a few things in here so I will add as I remember.

* Mileage listed is notaccurate. Onlylisted forbay's purpose.
