Vehicle Description
This beautiful First Generation F Model 1952 Ford F1 Pick up is
presented in Coral Flame Red with Tan interior. It has a beautiful
oak bed and a 239 cu in 100hp Flathead V8 backed up by a 3 speed '
On the Tree' manual Transmission. It has been completely restored
that shows a quality FORD TRUCK. In the last year of the Bonus
Built series, Ford introduced an overhead-valve 215-cid
six-cylinder engine, rated at 101 horsepower. The flathead V-8,
still at 239-cid, got a bump in compression ratio, increasing
output to 106 horsepower. Hood trim was revamped, and front grille
color was changed from silver to white, This one has the color
matched with Chrome. The first F-Series truck (known as the Ford
Bonus-Built) was introduced in 1948 as a replacement for the
previous car-based pickup line introduced in 1941. It had a flat,
one-piece windshield and integrated headlamps.[1] It had a wider
cab.[1] Options included the 'See-Clear' windshield washer
(operated by foot plunger), passenger-side windshield wiper & sun
visor, and passenger-side taillight. Design of the F-Series truck
changed tremendously from 1950 to 1954. From 1948 to 1950, the
grill was a series of horizontal bars and the headlights were set
into the fenders. For 1951 and 1952, the headlights were connected
by a wide aerodynamic cross piece with three similarly aerodynamic
supports. The rear window was wider in the later trucks and the
dashboard was redesigned. F-Series trucks were assembled at sixteen
different Ford factories. Contact Kennith Stewart for more
