1939 F8 4 x 2 8 cwt Truck
The above is the truck I recently acquired. Let me say that this email will fully illustrate my lack of knowledge about the vehicle. Although I haven't received it as yet I am trying to get a bit ahead of the game by finding out as much as I can about the drive train.
US Ford trucks had an enclosed drive shaft up into the early 40's. However, as I was not sure I asked the seller who claimed it was open. I tried to check out the pictures I've seen on that model but they do not clearly show the drive shaft in its entirety. Can someone either add to my joy (open) or forwarn me (enclosed) as to which it would normally have? (I'm prepared to deal with either scenario!)
I did purchased a CD that has the Ford Special Pattern Manual on it but have been unable to get it to work in my PC. Will probably invest in Mr. Manual's offering as it appears to be a good buy!
