For Sale 1949 Ford F3 w/ Dump Bed I’ve got a 1949 Ford F3 pickup with a dump run by the PTO (has factory style bed). The truck is from North Dakota and is 99% rust free. Everything is SOLID, literally. Has somewhere around 46k original miles and has the factory straight 6 with a 4 speed manual trans (with PTO) and original rear axle. This truck is all original and not hacked up or toyed with. I’ve done a TON of work to the truck so I’ll try to list everything as accurate as possible. Driveline 1. New plugs, wires, coil, cap, and rotor 2. Radiator has been re-cored (original), engine block has been flushed, thermostat changed, new water pump gasket, new heater hoses, all new clamps, new coolant, new drive belt. Fan, Shroud, and Radiator have been refinished satin black. 3. Carb has been rebuild, brand new fuel pump, oil bath air cleaner cleaned and oil replaced. 4. Engine Oil and Filter Change. 5. New muffler, tail pipe and hanger 6. New battery tray, new battery, all new battery cables (battery, solenoid, starter), new starter solenoid and wiring for starting system. 7. Fuel tank, sending unit, and fuel lines are all new. Brakes 1. All 4 drums resurfaced, painted inside and out 2. All Brake shoes have been relined, painted, all backing plates have been cleaned and painted, 3. New wheel cylinders on all 4 corners, also painted 4. All new brake hoses and new lines (where needed) 5. Rebuild Master cylinder and brake light switch 6. Switched to DOT 5 brake fluid-does not hold moisture or remove paint when spilt. 7. New brake master cover (goes in floor) 8. New front wheel studs and lug nuts 9. New steering joint repair kits installed Electrical 1. I have virtually rewired most of the lighting system, all light work as designed. 2. Have added a Directional system which is period correct and does have period correct lights. Everything works. 3. Starter system rewired as previously mentioned. 4. All wires have been taped at openings, needed connectors replaced, all wires are in loom and organized properly so it’s not a rats nest fire hazard. I do have a direct battery disconnect for safety. Otherwise remaining original wires are in good shape. 5. Original 6 volt system, Instruments work. Interior 1. Seat has been redone, Black with yellow piping, super sharp. 2. Vinyl period correct floor mat, metal floor has been painted black, no holes, all original. 3. Correct “Ford” dash pieces installed, new glove box liner installed 4. New heater hoses and defroster hoses installed, heater and defrost works. Various things 1. Yellow and black paint 2. New Oak Wood in the bed with 6 super hold downs in the floor, very nice finish. 3. Original tailgate in amazing shape 4. All windows and vents work 5. Top speed about 50, speedometer cable replaced, must not be all the way in the trans, works when it wants too 6. Red wheels, brushed rust-oleum, looks pretty sharp. 7. Could use rear tires, pretty serious cracks, only drive it around town and to local shows, not worried. 8. Dump bed works mint, pto cable broke (normal throttle cable style) so I crawl under the truck to engage it. Simple 9. Drives, steers, and brakes solid, really fun to drive, turns tons of heads. 10. Trans is a non syncro, some tricky driving skill required. 11. Starting button does not work; I start the truck by pushing the test button on the solenoid. Will need a new button. 12. Front two wheels are tubeless 16” wheels from a ford F2, refinished with radial tires (50% tread life). Included are two more tubeless wheels that need refinishing, and two matching tires. Other Parts Included: 1. Dana 60 rear axle (3.73) from a 1972 f250 in great shape. This is a common swap for better gear ratio. 2. A spare driveshaft, needs to be shortened if installing the D60 rear. 3. Full length running boards. In decent shape if you’d like to install them on this truck. 4. Rear shock mounts, these were optional in 49. 5. Complete interior “headliner” kit; interior dress up kit. New in box never opened. Black. 6. Two tubeless wheels with tires (as mentioned above) **Details** I can assist loading this truck on MOST WEEKENDS ONLY; I work a busy work week and cannot get time off easily.

Clean Title and receipts in hand. **Shipping to be arranged by buyer** Moving and cannot bring it with me. Call jeff @ 774 230 8796; anytime.
