Hey Wowabunga......when you finish your "jack identification guide" will copies be available? I can't find official info anywhere regarding the jack for my 49 Ford F1. Also, where would you recommend that I search for a jack for my truck?

 

Hi and welcome to FTE!

You might want to e-mail Wowabunga your request, the Powers that be here (and are lurking) frown on selling and buying on teh posting boards!

 

Thanks Julie. I wasn't aware of that or I wouldn't have posted my reply as such. I'm not familiar with this forum process.......how do I email wowabunga?

 

Go to his post and click on his user name and a dropdown will appear. One of the links will say "send Wowabunga a private message" click on that and you can send him a PM.

 

Ah yes, BUT, you need to have 25 posts before you can send a Private Message. Do the same drop down, it should also say "send wwbnga an e-mail."
And I'm not 100% certain but somewhere in this thread he may have left his phone number.

Edit note: His e-mail option is not active. I sent him a PM and asked him to come back to this thread and chat.

You realize of course that you can buy jacks like this at most of the major car parts swap meets?

Edit Note: His e-mail option isn't on so I sent him a PM and asked him to come back to the thread.

 

If only I could find half a dozen of these F-1 Jacks I could go on a much needed vacation...! Have been busy with my new storage barn moving all my gas pumps, vintage fire hydrants, rail road crossing lights etc has chewed up the entire month.

The 1949 F-1 jack I've pictured on the left is rare.... the 1950 F-1 jack pictured on the right is even harder to find. For a long while I could not get concrete info on these jacks, but my luck has changed and I'm researching with some Ford clubs and have some Ford part numbers and production dates to go with these jacks.... coming soon. I'm still a little behind due to the storage shed relocation so sometime this week I'll be posting the new info.

I'll check out the forum options here and see if I can get a email do-floppy to work.
