Ford F-1 Pick-up Truck
The first generation of the Ford F-Series (also known as the Ford Bonus-Built trucks) is a series of trucks that was produced by Ford in 1948 to 1952. The introduction of the F-Series marked the divergence of Ford car and truck design, developing a chassis intended specifically for truck use. Alongside two-door pick-up trucks like the example seen above, the model line included also panel vans, bare and cowled chassis, and marked the entry of Ford into the medium and heavy-duty truck segment.
Across North America, Ford assembled F-Series trucks at 16 different facilities during its production. The first generation of the F-Series is the sole generation produced entirely with "Flathead" engines (inline-6 and V8). All are manual.
This vehicle is often seen in the Enfield/Barnet area of north London.
