the right vehicle to advertise your small business? Consider this
1949 Ford F-1 Custom Half-ton Panel Truck, with an old school
flare. The previous Oregan owner had lovingly cared for this truck
since 2008, 14 year ownership. Finished in red, the truck?s paint
and trim are in overall very good order, its bodywork is 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, speedo/odo/fuel gauge are inop. 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 MotoeXotica Classic Cars today to check
