This is the 39' Ford with Flathead V8 and 4-speed transmission I've been working on for the last year.

I sure would like to see it! My truck was running about 20 years ago- the previous owner used it to haul hay. He parked it under a shed, removed the hoses and drained the radiator with the intention of restoring it but never got to it. We put a new carburetor on it, tuned it up, and got it...

Does anyone know if Ford put a regular bed on the 1 1/2 ton like they did the 1 ton, but left the dual wheels on it?

Thanks Old Dad, brake lines are one of the few things I lack before it's ready to take for a test drive.

Thanks for your quick reply, Lanny! You're right, the gas tank in my 1 1/2 ton is under the seat. I've been working on this truck for 6 months after finding it in a barn.

I own a '39 Ford 1 1/2 ton truck and wondered if the cab size is the same as the cab in the 1/2 ton trunk. I am redoing the interior and wondered if the headliner that I found in a catalog would fit both sizes. Also, is there a website that specializes in the Ford 1 1/2 ton truck?
