America emerged from the economic Great Depression, pickup trucks
became the workhorses on farms and in cities, particularly in the
Great Plains states, led by Ford. Dressed in Vermilion Red over
black wings, the truck?s paint and trim are in very good order. The
cargo bed looks good, the engine bay is tidy and the chrome bumpers
are in fine shape. The split windshield is clear and crack-free and
note there is only a driver?s side windshield wiper. This truck
rolls on a 112-inch wheelbase. This truck rolls on wide whitewall
bias-ply tires. Each one is mounted on wheels with red beauty rings
and topped with chrome center caps. The wheels are in very good
order while the tires are in good, original condition. Under the
hood is Ford?s 21-stud 221 CID Flathead V-8 engine (code V8-78)
backed by a sliding gear three-speed manual transmission. They were
used in Fords for 1937 but the block was revised to have the water
pumps mounted on the block. The new design also relocated the water
outlet from the front of the heads to the top center of the heads.
Inside is a matching red and black interior. The black bench seat
looks great, a three-spoke steering wheel faces the driver. The
black inner door liners and red metal dashboard are in good,
original order and the dash came with a full array (for the period)
of gauges but the amp gauge and horn are inoperable. A
floor-mounted shift lever completes the interior. VIN: D3432
