Vehicle Description
Launched in 1948, the legendary Ford F-series began as a
replacement for the previous car-based pickups. For the first time,
Ford was building pickups on a dedicated truck platform creating a
much better workhorse than previously available. Classic trucks are
gaining momentum in the collector auto markets. Ford's 1st F-series
generation lasted from the 1948-1952 model years, but significantly
changed in appearance from year to year making each version unique
and pretty rare. While trucks sold well, most were obviously used
work heavy workloads leaving few surviving examples in excellent
condition.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1948 Ford F1 Panel Truck
for purchase. The body on this vehicle is in wonderful condition
per being stored a majority of its life post restoration. This is
an older restoration, according to the owner it was completed
around 20 years back - but as mentioned it is still in excellent
shape due to it being stored and properly maintained. The vehicle
is powered by a 460 cubic inch V8 that is out of a 1971 Lincoln
which is in great running condition and very strong. The exterior
is finished in a Brown paint that has cleaned up exceptionally well
and showing tons of life left in it after receiving a full
professional detail. The cloth interior also cleaned up very nicely
and is in overall good condition; the owner mentioned he believes
the seats are out of a Ford Freestyle. This is a truly excellent
truck inside and out, professionally restored with no expenses
spared. This truck has been stored inside and always cared for and
is ready for its new owner to do the same. Please call or email us
today for more information.
