Try a wet compression test. Just squirt a spoon full of motor oil in spark plug hole before doing test. This will temporally seal piston rings that may be the problem.

Bob Drake made his as a chrome plated potmetal.

All Ford 3 speed transmissions for 1932 thru 60s are syncronized in second and third.

The bars are the same. Only the bracket is different. The 4 hole style is 1940 Ford and Mercury. The other bracket with an oval hole and 2 round holes is 1941 Ford and Mercury.

I have seen many of these on farm trucks. The purpose was to increase the load capacity so the owner could haul more weight. I think most of these caused early failure due to the abuse they encouraged.

Another difference is shock absorber mounts.

Only if you are building a rod. There are many differences from 1936 to 1940 but the overall size is the same. I have a pair of the cowl support brackets you mentioned that came out of a 1940.

I have a fondness for the COE. My collection includes a 1939 101" dump, 1940 with a 5th wheel, 1941 Holmes twin boom wrecker, 1947 stake bed. I also have a nice pair of the rear dual wheel fenders.

If this is a drip pan, what did the "pan" look like?

Reading the original question from Kurt V, I think he wants to remove the line that is inside of the tank. The answer should be NO. The pick-up tube is riveted and soldered to the tank and is difficult to repair even after the tank has been removed.

Sounds like you have the electrical systems fixed. Tell us about the fuel. Are you choking/priming it to get the results you describe. May be not enough gas available in the carb to keep it running.

What I see in your pictures is a 1939 truck bucket with an aftermarket sealed beam conversion kit. Original head lights on 1939 did NOT have sealed beam bulbs. Sealed beams were first used in 1940. Owners wanted to have "state of the art" lights and bought a kit to update the truck. Kinda like...

The cowl loom in a 1940 pickup 01C-14401-B had to be changed in 1941 11C-14401-B because 1940 had voltmeters and 1941 had ammeters. See page 577 in the green book. Page 490 shows 1940 has 01A-10844-B battery charge indicator (voltmeter) and 1941 has 11C-10850-A ammeter assembly. This is one of...
