1950 Ford COE Project

Stumbled on this 1950 COE project in EBay today (not my listing). It's not too far from me and if some one here was interested in better pics and an in person inspection, send me a pm and I'll check it out for you. I personally have a full project plate, but believe one can never look at too many old trucks. It doesn't cost me anything or get me in trouble at home.
A couple things noted viewing the pics, looks to have at least 2 5x8 pattern tubeless rims on the front (19.5 or 22.5?), not so sure about the back. Also, looking at what appears to be the master cylinder, looks like there are 2 fill caps on it? Or my eyes crossed again....

It looks like a fun project with great potential!

I'd buy it if I were you!

it's looks real solid. I need that heater the fuel tanks?, are they stock? They look like they mount flat and down, or at least could?

I've never seen the early style COE in my neck of the woods>

The fuel tanks were all the same between F1-F8, including COE. They mount against the back wall of the cab behind the seat.

I have one as well, from an F1. I, too, have a heater, but it appears to be non-stock version.

Talk to Garry first, however.
