1946 Ford Tonner flat bed. With a high payload capacity you're able
to haul any heavy load you may encounter, from a load of hay or
even your wife. The Timken Banjo 6.67:1 differential will push you
right along, it won't be playing much of a tune nor will you find a
radio but the 4 speed transmission spur cut gears will surely be.
Double clutch and pull her into another gear to change the tune,
with a constant base of the freshly turned up flat head V8 pulling
you right along. The mechanical tunes may not be loud as they once
were from the factory with the new firewall pad and little extra
firewall and floor insulation. All fresh fluids, grease, and wheel
seals will keep everything working smooth and as good as new. With
six new tires with the traction to make across the muddy field and
up into the hills. The coolant temperature will stay in check up
the steepest hills with new hoses, belts, fan hub, and coolant. As
you bounce through the potholes the windows will surely not rattle
with new anti-rattle strips. You load up some firewood, careful not
to hit the back window again. Getting turned around, watch out for
that stump, don't want to bend the mud flap bracket again. With one
mirror you don't see it and rip off the license plate but there
will be some bailing wire in the tool box under the duct tape.
Heading down the hill, with the new brakes and lines you'll feel
perfectly safe down the hills with that heavy load of wood. After
the firewood is unloaded, pull the truck into the barn for the
night where it's been kept since it was new. You may give it a
quick carburetor adjustment but no points adjustment will be needed
with the solid state ignition. On those cold winter days, slide
into the cab onto the new seat. Pull the choke and the engine fires
right up, fire up the gas fed Stewart Warner Heater. It will warm
you right up as you make it into town. A little rain no problem,
dual vacuum wipers and new blades will take care of that.
