Picked up a really cool vintage engine for the 37 pickup


A friend of mine was able to seal the deal on a 312 tri-power engine with a Ford-o-matic auto trans for the 37 chop top. The engine runs so it looks like I will get it mounted and start thinking about getting this one on the road. This should be fun.

Here is the newest project from the shop. 1937 chopped Ford pickup




















































Well, I picked up a trailer full of parts a while back. I decided while I had a break from fishing I would build a hot rod.
 Here is a 1937 Ford pickup. The list of modifications goes like this. It is chopped 5 inches. it has been channeled 4 inches. The bed has been shortened 13 inches. The frame has been stretched 10.5 inches in the front. It has a spring over axle 32 Ford front cross member and a 4 inch drop front axle made by Lucky seven. I split the 37 wishbone. I added new forged front spindles and 11 inch disc brakes. the rear of the frame has been kicked up about 7 inches. I installed an 8.8 Ford disc brake rear axle with 4.10 gears. It has triangulated four link rear suspension with Coil over shocks. the truck is mocked up and ready for the next step. THIS TRUCK IS FOR SALE !! If interested contact me for price.
I still need to complete the chop on the doors and install the new rocker panels that I ordered. THW WHEELS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE SALE.!!
