Vehicle Details
Stand out on the street or show; you won’t park next to another truck like this! This 1939 Ford 1/2 ton pickup is a recent full build with a traditional style. This truck has been fully disassembled and rebuilt/customized in every way. Features many hand fabricated one-off parts and new old stock (NOS) and original custom goodies all over. The build is approximately 5 years completed (still some small punch list items remaining to complete - will list below) with very few miles on the truck. I do not want to sell but I had double knee surgery and can no longer push the clutch pedal easily and health is forcing me to sell. Anyone who would like to see the truck before bidding is welcome to set up a viewing time.

Hook up windshield wiper
Horn
Tail gate chains (I was going to make custom latches)
