Default Re: 1937 Ford Truck

Your truck looks to have led a sheltered life! Beautiful condition, bone stock, apparently only surface rust, the best 21 stud engine ever, maybe a 157" wheelbase? probably low mileage? Cabs of all trucks big and small were interchangeable, Of course obsolete brakes, but your drums may still be turnable, if duty was mainly off the highway? and don't knock mechanical brakes, especially on a collector vehicle. Yes, you can get lining for your brake pads. Your front spring may have a broken leaf, which is replaceable. Watch out for the wheels, you'll have to go to a truck stop to install tires if your wheels are widow makers, and even then they might refuse, I don't know.
