will go better in the snow if you let some air out of the tires. Like your truck. Used my 41 today to haul some limbs out of the yard down to the burn pile today--my wife just laughted and said, bet I would not do that with the fixed up one. She is right, but a few more scratches in the beater makes no difference
I have been wrenching on this one about 6 years now and I'm starting to see the end. There is a show here in about 3 weeks I'm shooting for. Powered by a 401 Buick Nailhead and 700r4 trany.
This thread is total heartbreak for me!. I sold my 40 & 47 2 years ago. Worst mistake i ever did and cant let it down. But i still have my F1 and all is good. Best looking trucks by far!
bought it in 2009. Started driving it 12/12/12. Two changes on the video.
1. Isky dosen't make heads, they are Offenhauser.
2. Now has a Edelbrock 500 not a Holley 390.

This is my '40 at the Early Ford V8 eastern meet in Saratoga Springs, NY in 2011. I bought it in Salem MA in 1980 and it came from Indiana and was Ford tractor Gray with black fenders and a wooden flat bed. Anyone remember it??
I have a '41 that I bought sometime back and have driven it allover the place. It's a fun truck and gets lots of looks. Doesn't have a flattie , but the outside is all stock. The wide whites, chrome wheels with 50 Merc caps and the old lacquer checked paint creates a lot of conversation.
