The 1949 Ford is a line of cars produced by Ford from the 1949 to
1951 model years. The successor to the prewar 1941 Ford, the model
line was the first full-size Ford designed after World War II,
becoming the first Ford car line released after the deaths of Edsel
Ford and Henry Ford. From 1946 to 1948, each of the American Big
Three concentrated on the restoration of car production, offering
updated versions of their 1941-1942 model lines. Released in June
1948, the 1949 Ford was the first major "postwar" American car
line, beating Chevrolet to market by six months and Plymouth by
nine.In response to its design, the model line would become called
the "Shoebox Ford", denoting its slab-sided "ponton" design. While
the design them had been in use since the late 1920s to streamline
automobiles, the 1949 Ford marked its widest-scale use, removing
running boards entirely and integrating front and rear fenders into
a single, smooth body form.
