Default Re: Time to rebuild flathead

The 37 half-ton stake is one of my favorite pickups. Nolan Cason was a former president of the V-8 Club and he had a 37 Deluxe half-ton stake as well as a 37 Deluxe half-ton panel delivery. He is no longer with us, but years ago he invited me over to his home and it probably only took a few days for him to clean all of my drool off of his vehicles. If it was me and my project, I would find a 37 engine and rebuild the 37 engine while driving the pickup as it is until doing the engine swap. To me, what you have is a very nice example of one of the rarer models of Ford pickups and going back with a 37 engine would be my first choice.
