Carswww.ardellscars.com/1950-ford-stake-side/This is a very nicely
restored and detailed 1950 Ford F-3 truck. The paint and body is
near flawless with a beautifully done wood stake body. The 100 hp,
239 cu in flathead V-8 sits nicely in a well detailed engine bay.
The interior is equally well done with restored dash and gauges,
steering wheel, door panels and Magic Air heater. Also featured are
period correct turn signals.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 these later trucks and the dashboard
was redesigned. This new cab was called the "Five-Star Cab.
