Ford F2 1950
General description :
1950 Ford F2 Custom Pickup This Ford F-2 (1950 ¾-ton series) is a Cadillac-example of traditional home-garage Rat Rod building. It was dependably constructed, strong running, stops-on-a-nickel, and travels anywhere. Like most true rat rods the truck was a project that evolved over many years. This allowed time for adding new components while insuring the already completed portions were done right. Above all this rat rod incorporates a level of creativity you just can't replicate. The Rat Rod scene is pretty popular right now and the builders that know what they are doing stand out above the rest. That is because not only do they build a solid car but they have an artistic idea backed by hotrodding style. Based on the cab of a 1950 Ford F2 pickup it is titled as a 50 Ford but given the custom grill/light set up takes on more of a 30s look. Everything is custom throughout and the truck incorporates pieces of history that put a smile on any hotrodders face. Most of us in the hobby have found a love for vintage signs/gas & oil collectables so if that is an interest of yours this truck is sure to grab your attention. Check out the following table to get an idea of some of the components used in the build: This cool custom has a lot going for it and gets a ton of attention. It has the rat rod custom look but is just as reliable as anything else on the road. SOLD

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.
