a 1933?? a 7.8 cummins?

do you mean a 1983 or 1993 with the Ford 7.8L diesel? A truck will allmost allways pull more than they will stop safely.

I want to see a picture of this truck. What does a 1933 f800 even look like?

Depending on local laws, and amount of axles, and what tires your using the gvwr is probably between 36000, and 55000 for the truck.

Really depends on hitch type also. Many of the pintles used in that era are "rated" for 16,500.
