Post-World War II pickup trucks are getting harder to find.
Finished in red, this example's paint and trim are in overall very
good order. The bodywork is straight and solid. Up front is a
chrome bumper. The cargo bed is in satisfactory condition. We are
selling this truck for the estate. Mr. Throckmorton had loving cars
for this truck since 2008 (15 years). It was always stored indoors
and used sparingly.
This truck rolls on older Sentry Hiway tires, size 7.50-16 in front
and Super Hiway II tires, size 7.50-16 in back. The spare tire and
wheel are a Goodyear Deluxe tire, size 6.50-16. There's a
bed-mounted spare tire on the driver's side.
Under the hood is a 239 CID Flathead, 24-stud V-8 engine. It is
backed by a three-speed manual transmission.
Inside, the gray bench seat is in satisfactory order. There are
floor mats, no carpet. The headliner is in mediocre condition. A
two-spoke black steering wheel frames the red metal dashboard, with
a full set of ancillary gauges. The gray inner door lines echo the
condition of the bench seat. The fuel, temp, and AMP gauges and
speedo/Odo and wipers are in inop.
rom 1947 to 1952, Ford assembled F-Series trucks at sixteen
different facilities across North America. In Canada, the model
line was also marketed through Lincoln-Mercury as the Mercury
M-Series to expand dealership coverage in rural areas. This
generation of F-Series pickup trucks is the sole generation to
entirely Flathead engines (inline-sixes and V-8s).
The 1947 Ford line was similar to the short-lived 1946 models.
Visual differences included the removal of the red accents from the
grill and the two small lights located just above it. Ford began
titling 1947s in February 1947. For the first few weeks, the 1947
model was identical to the 1946. Ford then restyled the body
slightly first by moving the parking lights from above the grill to
below each headlight. Exterior moldings were changed from grooved
to a smooth design. A new hood ornament with a blue plastic insert
was installed. A new hubcap design became available in March.
Competition to this Ford in 1947 included Chevrolet's 3100, Dodge's
W-series and GMC's pickup.
