1948 Ford F2 F1I bought this as a project recently off a guy in the mountains, and then was offered an older ford coupe that i could not pass up, and this truck has to go to make room for it. The Cab (vin) is actually an F2 (87HD139659) sitting on an F1 short bed frame. The frame was completely sand blasted and painted. The cab appears to have no rust (as you can see in the pictures), the front and back glass are intact. The hood got hit by something when it was off the truck, and has some dents. The front fenders and front end appear to be in good shape with very minimal rust.The rear fenders appear to be solid and usable (the bed sides and floor were garbage, didnt even take them). The bed and rear fenders came with the F1 frame when he bought that.
It has a ford 302, with a Weiand intake. The previous owner said this engine was running in another truck he had (like an early 70's ranger). He just replaced all the seals. It needs a carb, radiator, and alternator. The transmission is a borg warner t18 4 speed manual. It has a master cylindar and booster off a newer ford truck (brakes work)
It has a brand new Jegs wiring kit (with instructions), that is why it looks like wires everywhere, not much has been done with that. It has the gas tank for behind the seat.
I have more pics than i could post on Ebay, you can see them hereGoogle Drive Ford Truck Images
the truck has not been in the DMV system for a very long time (DMV had no record of it). I started the DMV paper work (paid registration, etc.. and have it all). The remaining items are for a CHP inspection and to get an official weight at a scale. But other than that paper work to get a title has been started. The sale will be for all the DMV paperwork and a bill of sale.
If you would like to see the vehicle, i can show it almost any day (i work from home). Any questions feel free to ask, I do not know much beyond what is listed in the posting.
This is a no reserve auction, i have to make room for another project. $500 due via paypal at end of auction, remainder to be due cash or money order (money order will have to clear before releasing vehicle) within 7 days.
Someone asked for a video, so I did a walk around video on my phone and uploaded to you tube
