Topic: 33-34 Ford Book

  I was looking at the club store online and was considering adding the '33-34 Ford Book to my library. Could somebody tell me, though: does it cover trucks, particularly the Model B?

I was looking at the cover pictured on the web page and only saw cars. My dad has a Model B Pickup Truck that I'd like to dig into some day and I will be buying the book, as long as I know it has the info that I need. Ever since I bought the clubs '41-48 Ford Book, I've been wondering if the club would have a book covering a Model B Pickup: would the V8 club have a book on a 4-banger?

Thanks for any info you can give me. For anybody that hasn't gotten the clubs books, if the '41-48 book is any indicator, they are AWESOME! My dad has a '48 that he has owned since '55 and I was able to tell him things about his own car from this book.

  47Fordor:
So far all published books pertain to cars. While there is significant information about chassis and engines, those can be used for commercial vehicles -- such as 1/2 ton pickups and sedan deliveries.
The only truck information would be from engine data only.
As for the model B, there is some information in the new 1932 book.
But-- as you say, each book is well worth having in a personal library.

  Yes there is some information in the book on pickups. As you may know, the mechanical parts are mostly the same for commercial(pickups).
