Flathead Transmission - who knows?

Does anyone know what transmission this is?

Flathead Getriebe, Hot Rod, Getriebe, Ford V8, Untersetzung,Truckgetriebe, F1 in in Papendorf | eBay

Item description is very low, seller has not much info about it, just:
- Ford transmission
- Pickup/Truck (F1?)
- should fit 1949-1953

It has a parking brake attached to the case.
Any Ideas?

The year is correct. '49 - '53, but it's from a big truck like maybe an F4 or larger. Maybe F3?

F-2 or larger with the drop-down hoop crossmember. Almost looks like the HD 3-sp rather than a spur-gear 4-sp. Too much grease on it to see the shifter rails on top. If there are 2, it's a 3-sp, 3 is a 4-sp. It has a PTO, if that matters.

Someone correct me if im wrong but i think that trans is a 47 and older ? It does have the 48-52 flathead half bellhousing attached to it but the hogshead halfbell with clutch shaft is all one piece (part of the trans)

The 48-52 3HD does not have a PTO mounting plate. Stu

Thanks for help so far. I hope to get the case number before the auction ends.

I believe it is a pre '47 4-speed as it looks like the half bell is part of the case, not removable. The Hd 3-speeds didn't have pto access IRRC.
