This morning I went out to my friend Clay's dad's house way out in the sticks, to look at a 1940 Ford truck, that I knew he had, with my other friend Mike who was looking for a 40'. What can I say, the truck is in very good shape, with very minor rust, and almost no bondo. The motor is a 1958 371 Oldsmobile J2 with two 97's and one 94' (the rat's nest in the manifold, was super gnarly, and Clay bare-handed it out). The tranny is Zephyr with a banjo rear end. Very nice indeed! Add to that many boxes full of just about every part the truck was missing. A great morning, a great price, and a great project... 
that truck is super sweet dave....can you send it here???
