I don't know much about the truck. The neighbor was going to crush it along with a 1950 GMC. So we went over and they gave it to us. The 50 Ford has a flatty v8. We are going to try to start it next week. Will post some pictures of the engine today some time.

Cool, a flathead! I'm learing to work on those myself. My 3 older brothers and I own a 39 Ford Deluxe Coupe that belonged to my mom before she passed away. It's in excellent shape, just needs a tuneup. Hopefully you guys won't have a lot of problems getting it going.

Well we have some old trucks in my husband junk yard and they have parts that I can steal to make my truck work. I have to redo the seat. But I think that I can do that over this next weekend. I will have to go to Fort Collins and get the materials. And have to clean out the truck as mouse droppings in it. YUKKY!!!
