Does anyone know where I can get some information on a Ford Model BB truck.This one has dual wheels.

If you have a specific question this site is probably your best resource. Another site that doesn't get as much traffic is http://www.earlyfordv8.org . You should add your general location to your profile there might be some good sources close to you. Look closely at the literature from the suppliers, I think I can remember some things related specifically to trucks. Do you have any pictures?

OK Thanks, The truck belongs to a friend of mine he just got it and we don't have much information at all about them. I will post more as it goes. I am located in Vineland NJ

Post the serial number (using XXX for the last three digits) and maybe that might produce some information.

Bobd, what year BB truck are we talking about here? I owned a '32 BB 1-1/2 ton, short wheel base, with dual rear wheels, but sold it a couple years ago. I am no expert on these, but may be able to answer some of your easy questions

The Ford Archives photo below depicts what the '32 131 1/2" wheelbase chassis looked like when new.

The short wheelbase truck is 131.5. Long 157.

1932 BB is correct. I hit the wrong key or relied on the wrong part of my brain. 131 1/2" is the short wheelbase measurement.

I've owned a 34 BB dump for 25 years. May be able to help general information. Erne
