sorry if this is in the wrong place.........

have an old Ford truck chassis, prob /def early 1930's......
would say 2,1/2 to 3,1/2 tonner......
seem to remember "ENFO" stamped on the rear axle case cover.....
from memory the diff is set up inside the axle, no separate differential......
has part of the engine rails cut off to make a farm trailer but def repairable....
it'll need a good home.........
I haven't time anymore.......
did plan to make a new cab etc and use a 4cyl Gardner as motive power...
the engine has been sold.........
anyone interested.......be a shame to scrap it........
on my hol's at the moment will photo and get more details when I return home......
thanks Clogs

never did know but would have guessed a straight 6 side valve.......
but like said I'd have put a 4 cyl Gardner in it...plenty of room...
a classic engine in it's own right.....

An English Ford of that vintage would probably have been a V8 or the four cylinder Model B engine

I was thinking it would probably be a Model A or B truck if its early 30's.
