Description
This is road going project. Been to a few shows and the truck runs well for its age.
The brakes are all cable, so no hydraulic to worry about and the brakes also work well.
The body work is not perfect, signs of rust here and there, a lot of it is surface rust.
Bottoms of the doors are probably the worst area, these need attention.
The windscreen surround is in need of repair but does still open to vent the cab and when closed it didn’t seem to leak in the rain (coming back from last show).
This is not in showroom condition, I liked it as it was, a useable truck that looks like it’s lived a life.
The chassis is solid and it comes with a spare (original) wheel. The wheels are 16” and I’ve been told this was produced as a pickup from the dealer, not converted from a van, as many have been.
It’s had electronic ignition installed (almost invisible) which makes the truck more reliable.
Supplied with more engine oil and a new tin of gearbox oil.
Great old truck and a very easy project, with slight oil leaks (it’s a Fordson)
Small amount of bodywork and a great little runner. Price reduced for quick sale, offers still considered, within reason.
Be quick, this is going to action in the next month and it ‘will’ be sold!History is minimal, investigation work I’ve done and mainly research evidence and specifications. There is a handbook included.
