1937 Ford Model Y pick up for sale
Current customer rating: (620 votes ) based onBilly started life as a standard saloon Model Y. but in the 1980's was rediscovered on a farm on Exmoor being used as a chicken coop. The middle section was too rotten so has been cut out and the original rear window used to form the rear window of the pick up. It maintains its original Briggs body number (still visible) and original registration number. The cab contains the original parts.
It has had a complete rebuild. the underside is immaculate as never see's the rain. Every part has been stripped and reassembled. Is converted to 12v.
The engine is a 100e model 1172cc which was available from 1953. and this engine was the last and most powerful of the sidevalve 10hp units. The carb is a Reece Fish carb. Parts are no problem for the engine. Mileage since rebuild is 260 miles. New exhaust. The gearbox is original Model Y.
The car runs well. stops well. (rod brakes) and has barely been used since its rebuild.
The car comes with a frame and canvas to make the back pick up section covered. spare wheel. tyre. box full of spares. oil and filter. crank handle and few bits of age related memorabilia. newspapers and books. The door panels feature playing cards from the early 1900's. The indicators are wartime indicators with hood to hide from enemy aircraft. Comes with 2 copies of original reproduced service manuals. one to get grubby and one to keep!It is featured in Ford Y&C Register's list of known surviving vehicles. Also featured in the clubs magazine. Is tax and MOT exempt. Even though MOT exempt. has been serviced and checked for road worthiness.
Please come and have a look as is very unique vehicle. Located in Barnstaple. North Devon. Please feel free to ask any questions.

Thank you for offers. but I will let the auction run until the end to be fair to everyone. If only 1 bid is placed then that's what it will sell for. There is no reserve.
Lastly. I don't want to talk about making Billy in to a hotrod. he is 77 years old and is an old fella and wants to stay that way!
Thanks for your interest.
