Dad took hundreds of pictures of his ‘37 pickup as he disassembled it for the restoration, but lost them all when he updated his IPhone (no, he didn’t back it up). Anyway, does anyone have pictures of the mechanical brake linkage for a ‘37 half ton? I assume that the cars were similar. We are in need of info from the brake pedal to the hubs.
Suggest you go on fordbarn.com Early V8 section. It is the sister site to this . It's more about the bone stock flathead Fords.The members there will be of a big help.

Thank you, thank you!!! That info is extremely helpful! Yes, it would be a perfect time to convert it to juice brakes, but he wants to keep it original. Now, the '36 that I'll be working on shortly will be a different animal....
