If you desire a truck with classic looks but modern amenities, MotoExotica Classic Cars has the ride for you. We’re pleased to present this 1948 Ford F2 ¾-ton 4×4 Truck Restomod.
The truck’s red paint, custom pinstriping with the Kirby’s Auto Service livery and trim are all in excellent condition. The windows are clear and intact while the truck’s lights are in excellent order, even the headlights with eyelid trims.
The truck’s bodywork is very straight and solid; it rides a modern F-150 frame and has a tow truck bed behind the cab, minus the actual tow hook, cables and mounting arms. The corrugated metal bumpers, runningboards and tow bed look good and are all covered in a black, scratch-resistant coating.
The truck rides high on Hankook Dynapro MT tires, size LT305/70R16 at all four corners. Each tire is wrapped around a seven-hole, chrome wheel and the front wheels have locking hubs. On either side of the tow bed there are two smaller wheels wearing Carlisle Sure Trail ST rubber, size 4.80-8.
Under the vented hood is a built 390 CID Ford V-8 breathing via dual exhausts that exit ahead of the rear wheels and the engine is mated to a three-speed automatic transmission and three-speed transfer case. Driver convenience features include power steering with tilt column, power brakes and power windows. There is also air-conditioning but it is incomplete.
Inside, the cab has been modernized. The bench seat is in excellent order and it is covered in white vinyl on the sides in the center with red cloth seating surfaces for the driver and one passenger. The black carpet looks fantastic while the black headliner is in very good order. The three-spoke aftermarket steering wheel looks great and flanks an instrument panel full of digital gauges. The dash and inner door liners are in all in excellent order. The only lever on the floor is for the transfer case so the cab could fit three people if needed.
The first F-Series truck (known as the Ford Bonus-Built) was introduced in late 1947 (went on sale January 16, 1948) as a replacement for the pre-war designed Ford trucks. It had a flat, one-piece windshield and integrated headlamps and a wider cab. Options included the “See-Clear” windshield washer (operated by foot plunger), passenger-side windshield wiper and sun visor and passenger-side taillight. For 1948, the Ford trucks featured wider, longer and taller cabs.
Competition to this F2 in 1948 included Chevrolet’s FR ¾-ton, Dodge’s B1-C ¾-ton GMC’s New Design Series ¾-ton trucks.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.

Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.

During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.

In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.

In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.

Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
