the right vehicle to advertise your small business? Consider this
1949 Ford F-1 Custom Half-ton Panel Truck. Finished in red, the
truck?s paint and trim are in overall excellent order, its bodywork
is solid and straight and the engine bay is extremely tidy. Behind
the driver and passenger seats, a cargo yawns with space, waiting
for you to fill it with completed orders, small parts or other
light-load items. The black bumpers fit well to the truck?s body.
This F-1 rolls on Atrezzo radials, size 195/60R15 in front and size
215/70R15 in back. Each one is mounted in a red, vented steel wheel
with a chrome center cap. The wheels look great while the tires are
in very good order. This panel truck rides on a 114-inch wheelbase
and has a 4,700 GVWR. Under the hood is a freshly-built 239 CID,
24-bolt Flathead V-8 with Offenhauser valve covers, intake manifold
with dual Stromberg 97 carburetors, custom-coated headers and twin
electric cooling fans. Backing this motor is a Tremec five-speed
manual transmission. The engine was reportedly professionally
overhauled with only test miles on it. Inside, the brown, low-back
vinyl bucket seats look great, while the brown carpeting is in
satisfactory order. The metal headliner is in decent order and
there?s a three-spoke banjo-type steering wheel in very good shape.
The red metal dash has a circular speedometer and a full array of
ancillary gauges. The matching red inner door liners are in similar
condition. Standard features included ashtray, glove box and
driver's side sun visor which was unusual on trucks at the time. A
floor shifter completes the interior. 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. A passenger taillight became standard as well as
reflectors on both sides. From 1948 to 1950, the grille was a
series of horizontal bars and the headlights were set into the
fenders. In 1949, similar half-ton panel trucks were available from
Chevrolet, Dodge, GMC, International and Willys-Overland. Stop by
