They run a theater in Milford, NH and need one as a prop for a play. The truck doesn't have to run or be restored. Does anyone have one they could use? Please email me off list.

I am looking for as many years as I can and all the option codes. Any help or leads would be great. Thanks Scott ===== Come take a look at my 1952 Ford Pickup Page: http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.geocities.com/motorcity/downs/9731/ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

There is a metal tag affixed to one of the 10 bolts which is stamped with this: WEB - AF 2CA 3.25 - 9 - 815A In addition to that, the front of the case is stamped 2B16, and, in a counterclockwise circle are the numbers 67531. I wonder if the 3.25 on the metal tag refers to the gear ratio. Thank you in advance, Kurt in Port Angeles, Wa. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 15 Jul 2000 21:14:34 -0500 From: JeffH Subject: Tank Update Just a quick ramble about my truck, "The Tank", a 1950 Ford F3... Got it back from the shop Thursday, after a new fuel pump, speedo cable greasing and welding the passenger exhaust manifold back into one piece. I've put about 7 miles on it Friday and Saturday, and already discovered the following: The gas gauge doesn't work (or maybe it's the sending unit, or the wire or whatever in between) The engine seems to be running pretty hot (temp gauge stopped about 3/4 over) The gas tank has a small pinhole (temporarily patched, will get it fixed Monday) Other than that, it seems pretty good, so I need to start lining up the other immediate fixes: Rear brake drums (the current ones work, but don't brake smoothly) Replace wiring New tires Steering (works, but a lot of play) But..... I am driving it! Woohooo!!! =====jeffh icon-stl.net=====http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.icon-stl.net/~jeffh====== Another fine message brought to you by the Screaming Penguins: Unnoficial site of the "John Madden for President" campaign! ------------------------------ From: "Jeff Thomas" Subject: Re: VIN decoding Date: Sat, 15 Jul 2000 21:39:59 MST Hi, Scott, look in your local bookstore for a paperback-sized book called the Red Book (or something like that). It decodes Ford or whatever make car VINs. I have the Ford truck version somewhere, and found it very useful for my '56 F100. I also found out a lot about a Road Runner I had in that version. Good luck.

I have one that reads 70 6EC 302, so if you get and answer let me know... I still want to know if this is worth switching my 3.92 with?

I bought a 302 engine and transmission that came out of an 82 or 83 LTD station wagon. I was told the transmission was an AOD (non electronic), but after taking a good look at it I am not so sure. It has one mechanical rod on the drivers side which appears to be for gear selection, and an electrical plug which goes into a harness with three connectors. There is a plate bolted to the transmission with the following information: PKA AY13 021857 D26 E3AP DA The output shaft housing has the following information cast on it: RF-EOAP-7A040-BD . Could someone please help me identify this tranny ? My project is stalled until I determine if I can still use it, and if so what I have to do to control it. Thanks for the help, Bob __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get Yahoo!

Perry" Subject: Re: advice on exhust for 292 Date: Sun, 16 Jul 2000 11:40:27 -0500 Chris, did you try local NAPA or exhaust shop? Seems like store in area had one in stock for mine. They have them available from parts suppliers listed under links at www.ford-trucks.com home page. I like Sacremento Fords catalog the best, and have gotten some items there. Have good selection. Rest of exhaust any good shop should be able to bend up for you. Some need to have truck and make, older shops may have "patterns" on hand so you can install yourself. G. L.
