No thanks, I have one big truck, the Mrs would murder me if I brought another home.

Disc was my first thought. I just wanted to stop better in traffic, and thought disc brakes would be the best way to go, it would be a minor mod from the original but one that would be safer.

I was looking to do a brake upgrade on the front. Would the speedway kit work? I know it will work with car spindles but have not yet found any info if it'll work on my truck. I'm looking to make it a good driver and want it to stop better than stock.

Bad news on the truck front, it has a blown motor, but for $300 not to bad, just have to figure out what the next step will be, no matter what, the truck will be on the road again.

Does anyone have images of the chassis and front axle assembly? I am guessing it's a bit different than the cars and light pickups they built that year. I haven't picked it up yet, so I am just trying to figure things out.

I just purchased a 1940 1.5 ton with ford flatbed and need to know where I can get parts, especially brakes and chassis parts. Any help would be great. I'd prefer to keep original, but can't find much. Rockauto has some parts, as does some ford parts houses, but they don't carry everything.

Will trade... let's see what ya got!

Super nice dash, perfect for restoration projects. $175.00

Try the H.A.M.B. they specifically deal with hot rods.

Also looking for a nice seat for my speedster/racer project.
