Ford Pickup (1937-1939)
The 1937-1939 Ford Pickup introduced elegant Art Deco styling to the truck line, making it a pre-war favorite. Today, it's a popular base for street rods, while clean, original examples are highly sought after by collectors.
Ford Pickup (1937-1939) sold for a median of $27,000 over the last 12 months, based on 18 auction sales; the middle 50% sold between $16,775 and $34,500. 45 currently for sale.
The 1937 Ford Pickup brought passenger car styling to the commercial line for the first time. It featured a new V-shaped grille and teardrop headlights integrated into the fenders, a look it shared with Ford's sedans and coupes. Buyers could choose between the economical 60 hp V8 or the more powerful 85 hp V8, both mated to a 3-speed manual transmission.
Collectors are drawn to the Art Deco design that defined late 1930s Fords. Its handsome, rounded look makes it one of the most attractive pre-war trucks. While it's a very popular platform for building street rods, finding an unmolested, original-spec truck is becoming increasingly difficult and desirable.
The market reflects this split personality. With an average sale price around $30,000, the value is highly dependent on condition and originality. Restored stock trucks and well-executed custom builds occupy the top of the market, while driver-quality examples and older restorations are more accessible.
Buying Tips
Rust is the biggest issue. Thoroughly inspect the cab corners, floor pans, running boards, and the bottom edges of the fenders and doors.
Most trucks have been modified over the decades. Scrutinize the quality of any engine swaps, chassis work, or suspension upgrades, as poor workmanship can be costly to correct.
Original drivetrains are simple but can be worn. Check for excessive smoke from the flathead V8 and listen for grinding or popping out of gear from the 3-speed manual transmission.
The '37 model is unique with its barrel-shaped grille and teardrop headlights. The '38 and '39 models have a more upright grille and different trim, so verify the year and model-specific parts.
