Interesting grille guard on ‘48 F-1 Found by accident in the interweb. Supposedly factory. Undoubtedly someone has seen this item before…. https://www.ctinsider.com/living/article/my-ride-cromwell-1948-ford-f-1-pickup-20763304.php

The factory squirter I’m looking for is stamped with a 71, obviously the orifice size. That item I borrowed and works like a charm. (the problem child that was on there prior is probably an offshore repop that no amount of cleaning with the proper drill has managed to fix….. it’s just crap) The...

On the end of the shifter inside the transmission….. is the “ball” supposed to be basically round? The sides of mine are flat.

Looking for one of these for my '48 F-1

Had them on the truck for about a year and a half. One of them was leaking and despite being torqued like all the others, it has pretty much completely failed. Sent an email to them but nothing. Crickets basically. I’ll have to give them a call, but come on….. really? It’s not like I’m trying to...

Got a call into Fred at Southside but haven't heard back. Which one of these is correct for a '48 F-1 ? Looks like the same listing with different numbers?

Both of the ones on my truck had rusted out. I used AP3743 mufflers from Amazon. About $29 each. Similar design and a pretty good size match for the 7HC5230. Prior owner somewhere along the line had cut open the cases on the 7HC's, gutted the insides and rewelded. (Not too bad, fairly quiet...

I purchased an exhaust manifold bolt and washer set for my '48 8BA a few months back from a vendor that also posts on this forum and has his business in McMinnville, TN Sent a PM to him recently too- "Works fine but missing one of the black oxide lock washers….. I got a flat washer in the set…...

I originally replaced the sender with a NOS one (41A-9278), thinking that my factory gauge reading would be fixed........ it always read no more than right around 30. The mechanical gauge reading would be anywhere from 20 to 40 and the electric one would be around 30 and usually within 1/8" of...

Engine builder didn't install the item circled in red in the photo below..... it was returned to me in a plastic bag. They did run-in the engine after it was assembled on a test stand. No leaks or problems. Any issue with not running the plate pictured below? Thanks.

Sounds like it's missing. https://www.instagram.com/p/Ccf9xgKJgPI/

Beside the two main bolts and the two tool tray bolts, there appear to be six other threaded nuts in the cab back section at the tank. Looks like 5/16-24 is the thread. Were there bolts originally installed in those 6 additional locations? Thanks.

Or the ID of the hole in the manifold for the road draft tube ? Looks like 1 5/8" or so? Thanks.

Addressing various engine items in preparation for when I get my flathead back from the builder. Cleaning up the housing and pulled the brass fitting near the top on the side of the housing...... standard male pipe thread with inverted flare for the oil line at the other end...... TINY 1/16"...

I assume I've got the original pump. I'm going to have the engine out for a rebuild and want to do the fuel pump at the same time. I'm looking for a kit to do this. Contacted Mike at 3rd gen but haven't heard back... We have stupidly high amounts of alcohol in our "gas" in this state.... I'd...

This is 1/8 pipe thread male on the pump side and 1/2-20 female with a conical 55 degree seat at the bottom on the hose side. Bought one from an NOS parts provider

Looking for a "new" provider. I've been using a local shop in Ontario, who I've known since the mid-90's and they've been good but they are getting hard to deal with. (pretty much a one-person shop and the owner has some non-automotive interests that, although commendable, are not conducive to...

48-52 Truck Fan Pulley..... Update- No Longer Needed I believe it's 21A-8603 Hub/Sheave Assembly. I'm looking for basically what's in the photo, not the guts inside. (i.e.: not the shaft/impeller or bearing deal) Thanks. https://imgur.com/zXdhEJC Another Ford Barner got me hooked up......
