Default 1932 Ford Model BB truck

City: Mission
State: BC

I have got a really nice 32 Ford BB truck which seems to be really rare to say the least, I can find plenty of info on 33-34 BB's but the 32 was unique to itself with the recessed firewall and the upright grille shell, Im not going to rod it, well saying that I want to put a 1937 Flatty v8 out of a truck in it but I can do this whithout and drilling, cutting or buthering of the original truck so it could be put back to original at any time, the conversion should be easy but I need a few mechanical parts to do the conversion but dont really know what Im looking for, there is a shaft which runs from the trans crossmember to the torque tube crossmember, I assume this was just a tube with a shaft in it like the drive shaft with a universal joint on each end my only other option is to make one,
Im just going to leave the body totally alone and try to find an old AA flat deck for it so it looks just like it came out of a farm in 32, I just want to get it mobile and drive the shit out of it, I need a full set of six tires to go on her and has anyone got any good sources for those other than Coker tire??

I want to go the V8 route as the four pots are hard to find and do go to well either Ive been told, and the first V8s were made in 32 with the water pumps in the heads which is also an engine I have but it needs a complete rebuild and it would be just easier to use the good running 37 motor

I also would buy good pair of doors as mine are badly damaged, and any other 32 ford truck parts you have???

I would really appreciate any info anyone has on these trucks as it seems to be so hard to find,

please please please help me somebody ??????
