I'm happy to share the information I have. I like the rarer Fords like the '41-'42 4 cylinders and the '40-'41 1/2 ton chassis and cowls with purpose-built bodies, either civilian or military. If anyone has factory photos of bare '40 or '41 1/2 ton chassis with cowl I would love to see them.

Here is more information on the '41 4 cylinder engine. Sorry, this version is illegible. See the following two pictures. Click on each picture, it will expand.

I wasn't aware that the four cylinder "tractor" engine was used in trucks larger than the pickup and panel delivery in '41. That said, I see that the 4 speed transmission is listed in the green book for 41-42 3/4 and 1 ton models with a 122" wheelbase and the 40hp four cylinder engine. Apparently, they used a 6.666 rear end gearing. There isn't much more info elsewhere. One can only imagine what driving one of these was like. We had a 9N Ford tractor with the same engine, and it was hardly strong enough to pull itself.

1941 3/4 and 1 ton trucks (122" wheelbase) with the 4 cylinder engine came with a 4 speed transmission as standard equipment. So your engine and transmission or transmission alone could have come from one of those trucks.

I am looking for a V8 gas pedal and air cleaner for this pickup- among other parts - if anyone is willing to let these go I am glad to contribute. I thank all who helped on the decifering of the vin #s.... I have decided to just get it going as a ''driver'' and leave the body ''as original''. my thanks to a Great club and organization. Frank S.
