Vehicle Description
1949 Ford F1 The first-generation of the Ford F-Series is a series
of trucks that was produced by Ford in North America from 1948 to
1952. While trailing the Chevrolet Advance Design trucks by a year,
the introduction of the F-Series marked the divergence of Ford car
and truck design, developing a chassis intended specifically for
truck use. Across North America, Ford assembled F-Series trucks at
sixteen different facilities during its production. In Canada,
Lincoln-Mercury sold the F-Series under the Mercury M-Series
nameplate to expand coverage in rural areas. The first generation
of the F-Series is the sole generation produced entirely with
'Flathead' engines (inline-6 and V8) and without an automatic
transmission option. 1949: The most noticeable change on the 1949
trucks was the deletion of the red pinstripes on the silver painted
grille bars. Wheels were painted to match body color, rather than
the previous black wheels. Defroster added as an option. Running
boards trimmed at the frame for ease of replacement. Passenger
Taillight became standard as well as Reflectors on both sides.
