1952 Ford Other Pickups Additional Info:
So this was my grandfathers truck and he gave it to me when I was 13. I took it apart and it sat for the better part of 17 years. I had the flathead rebuilt which sat in a barn for 10 years and is currently sitting in a machine shop waiting to get freshened up/looked at to make sure its still in good usable shape. The truck is a F1 despite the badging. So about a year ago I had someone buy the giant pile of parts and they assembled the little truck with a "good running" y-block. They put the f2 badges and front brakes on the truck because it what they had laying around. They also put the 3/4 differential under the truck as well. Their thinking was that they put bigger brakes on it. The original diff was fried and the front springs on the truck were broke on one side. I ended up with a super clean 50 Chevrolet COE that they couldn't live without and a trade was made. I got the 52 back and they got the COE.Body wise the truck is great. Its not perfect. It had one lower panel missing on the front fenders that you can see was replaced with one that has a few small rust holes in it. There has been some dents here and there. The only serious rust is in the bottom of the tailgate. I haven't gone over the truck with a magnifying glass to find more rust but seeing it lived here all of its life it looks as rust free and your going to find on any 50's vehicle that sat in a field for 40+ years. The seat was one I had laying around and has been recovered some time ago. All of the glass needs replaced. I justreceiveda new 3 core radiator for the truck that should work with the y-block. The truck is really complete as far as small items. I have the original steering wheel and I have the headlight covers which are not in the pictures.
Price is truck plus flathead. Y block is getting put together as well speak and if you are interested will cost more.
So if you have no intention of paying for this item when you buy it please don't. I do not take payments as I am not a bank. This cost me money that I don't have to relist every time. Please figure out you financing before you buy it. If you have a 0 feedback score I will request you verify the funds with your bank before I accept you offer.
