1947 Ford Pickup Truck Pro Street Rat Rod
Sorry for the lack of project cars over the last couple of days. Between my day job and family I had very little time to get anything written for the site. However, I think I have made up for it with this Wednesday evening special. What Project Cars For Sale has dug up here is a one of a kind monster. It started life as a 1947 Ford Pickup Truck and has turned into one beautiful piece of art! This “Rat Rod” pickup truck was dubbed “Deliverance” and graces the pages of Hot Rod Magazine’s current issue. Under the hood you will find a big block Chevrolet 454 cubic inch engine with an early seventies Weiand tunnel ram intake with two Holley 750 Double Pumpers. Sitting atop those Holley’s acting as breathers are two antique spittoons. Yes, you got that right, spittoons. The valve covers on this truck are hand fabricated pieces and not some imported knockoff. Backing up the engine is a Saginaw three speed. Other features of this truck include a four link rear setup, Afco adjustable shocks, four wheel disk brakes and of course, given the “Pro Street” title, the truck has been tubbed with a narrowed Ford nine inch rearend with3:82 gears. This is truck is no ordinary Rat Rod. It was designed and built by a 20 year experienced Winston Cup builder. The build was with Race Quality parts front to rear for superior performance and reliability. Per the seller the truck was completed during March of 2013 and can be driven around town in heavy traffic or down the highway at speeds of 75 to 80 miles per hour without a problem! This is one heck of a 1947 Ford Pickup Truck! It is certain to garner EVERYONE’S attention ANYWHERE it goes! Check out the full truck listing here on eBay
