History:In 1948, the famous F-series truck was unveiled. Advertised as " Bonus Built," the F-1 marked Ford's first all new , post World War II line of commercial vehicles that ranged from the half ton F-1 to the three ton F-8. With a one piece windshield and side vent windows, the redesigned cab's front end featured a recessed grille and headlamps along with squared fenders. The spare tire, moved from the side, was now mounted under the load floor as it is today. A new six cylinder engine, the rouge 226, boasted 95 horsepower. The redesigned 100 horsepower Rouge 239 V-8 was also available. The 1950's marked a movement to make trucks more car like in comfort and styling. 1951 featured a redesigned front end, a larger rear window and a new instrument panel.Recent History: In 2004 a professional frame-off restoration was started on the truck. It would take a year to get it back together. We took our time and did it right as Henry Ford had intended it. We used the internet and did the research to find "New Old Stock" if we could or vendors that had bought the rights from Ford to reproduce the parts we needed. We sought out people that new the engine, transmission, and rear axle that we rebuilt. Every mechanical part was rebuilt. All electrical parts were rebuilt or rewired. Every nut and bolt was replaced. Every part that need paint was sand blasted, primed and painted the correct color. This truck is all steel with no fiberglass or bondo.
