This Ford Pickup 1937-1939 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1937 Ford Pickup is powered by a flathead V8 paired with a three-speed manual transmission and was reportedly refurbished in 2010. The truck was acquired by the seller two years ago, and work in 2019 included rebuilding the carburetor and gearbox, refinishing the wood stake bed, and replacing the horn. Modifications are said to include Offenhauser aluminum valve covers, an electric fuel pump, an aftermarket fuel tank, and turn signals. This Ford Pickup is offered with recent service records and a clean Texas title in the seller’s name.

The cab was reportedly repainted red a decade ago, while the fenders, running boards, and bed were painted black. Chrome bumpers are fitted front and rear, and accessories include dual rearview mirrors, driving lamps, and tailpipe finishers.

Red-finished steel wheels wear black-painted dog-dish hubcaps and chrome beauty rings. Whitewall tires are fitted at all four corners. The wooden stakes and slats on the bed were refinished last year, and the front bumper was re-chromed.

The cab features a black vinyl bench seat with matching door panels and rubber floor mats.

A three-spoke steering wheel with a V8 center cap rests in front of a painted metal dashboard. Instrumentation includes a five-digit odometer that reads approximately 68k miles, approximately 200 of which have been added under current ownership. An aftermarket turn signal stalk has been added to the steering column, and a replacement horn tube assembly was installed last year.

The flathead V8 is equipped with Offenhauser aluminum finned valve covers and a single downdraft carburetor, the latter of which was rebuilt in March 2019. The three-speed manual transmission was rebuilt by Absolute Suspension of Tomball, Texas in July 2019, and the front outer right tie rod and drag link assembly were replaced at this time. Receipts from the work are provided in the gallery below.
