1941 Ford Pickup Hot Rod
This 1941 Ford pickup was turned into a hot rod by a previous owner. The truck rides on a Mustang II-style front end with disc brakes, rack-and-pinion steering, and tubular control arms, and out back lowering blocks were used for the Ford 8″ rear end. The two-tone paintwork is complemented by a color-coordinated interior featuring a woodgrained dashboard, Dolphin instruments, a banjo wheel and tilt column, and a floor-mounted Lokar-style shifter, and the bed has wood planking, a spare mounted on the right side, and a custom rear roll pan. The 8BA 239ci flathead V8 is topped by finned Edelbrock heads and has dual Holley 94-style carburetors and a Walker radiator, and it is linked to an AOD automatic transmission. Part of the Stone Collection.
