I have a 1952 F-1 Ford pickup with a 6cyl OHV and 3 speed tranny on the floor. What I would like to do is put a V-8 Flathead engine with an automatic transmission. Would also like to change fuel system and put PS and A/C.
So I am looking for some buys and how to information

 

The first thing that comes to mind for me is the fact that your truck is a 52 with I'm assuming is an OHV 215? You need to show the 52 experts here a good pic of the engine mounts. They're a little different than the flathead mounts. i.e. You may have to switch them out if you want a flathead.

Here's a flathead with AC that I saw at the Rod Run last fall.



Secondly, let me give you a warning. A LOT of guys are getting scammed right now because internet vultures are trolling these forums looking for posts that express an interest in buying parts. So be careful. And, on the flip side, you might want to change your profile to be more specific about your location other than just saying "USA". It would help us determine who might be near you that could have parts for sale or lend a helping hand.

 

Thanks for the info. That looks like just about what I am looking for. I didn't realize my profile was misleading. I will see about changing it
Thanks Again

 

Hi
Checked my profile like you mentioned and it does have my address Johnston,RI

 

Who can I write to for the information I need?

 

Still says USA on your posts

 

Here's an old thread about the automatic transmission behind a flathead. Go up to the "Search this forum" button on the right and try that for further info.

Hey - I have a 52 F1 as well, good to see you want a flat head. Have a look, much nicer than a 350. Also I have installed a T5 5 speed chevy transmission but have not had it out of the garage yet - Soon.

Good luck

 

that looks great

 

I went over the profile and where it says country you have to put USA. Where are you looking so I can correct it
Thanks

 

Same place, but farther down, there is "addiitional information"
look for "Where you live"
Welcome to the forum!

 

I think I found it and corrected ....let me know if it worked

 

Yep! You got it!
