Vehicle Detail
For sale is a 1938 Ford Pickup. This is the 1/2 ton model. The truck has a 1950 Ford flathead V8 (the 100 HP model) engine with a 1936 Ford manual trans. This was the only engine and tranny I had available at the time and I needed the truck running so I could move it around as needed for space reasons. Ive owened the truck for about a year and a half. The clutch was not the right one as it was also from another year but the truck drove around just fine otherwise. The truck was running and driving up to a month ago. I parked it for about three weeks and left the brake light on. I cant get the truck to start now. The ignition wont crank over. Im not sure whats wrong. I charged the battery which had died on me but I think the voltage regulator or a fuse went out. I already replced the starter solenoid so I know that's not it. I just bought a replacement voltage regulator from eBay which will be included. Also included is the correct clutch, brand new with all the hardware needed and even a clutch centering tool. Also a correct fit oil pan for the engine with a new oil pan gasket. The pan on there now doesnt quite fit properly because its also from another year. But everything, once replaced, would make for a nice weekend cruiser. I drove every weekend around town until I got busy with other projects. The truck also has the original rims and rear end. The mechanical brakes work great. Cab and hood metal is pretty good. Rest of the truck, bed and fenders, are ok. One fender was pretty bad so I replaced it with a fiberglass one but I will include the oriinal steel one in case you want to have it repaired. Also the head panel of the bed was pretty bad also so I have a replacement steel panel also included. It is unpainted. I will include the original head panel too if wanted. This is a pretty god rat rod as is and could be a good project for a hot rod if someone wanted to do that. Its uncut and other then the engine and tranny and passenger side rear fender unmolested. It just needs a few parts swapped and it will be a great weekend truck. The rear bumper and bumper brackets are also included. I may even install the bumper this weekend. The truck is also currently registered and insured and has a Clean California title in my name. This specific truck was appraised by Hagerty Classic Car insurance at $5000. I was going to list this truck for $5000 and I think I it was worth it but since its not running right now and I don't have time to get it going Im only asking for $4000. I'm open to offers. Obviously $4000 is what I feel the truck is worth, but if you feel differently then make an offer for what you can afford.
