Allmän beskrivning : Sometimes you just need an honest, no frills truck.
There's an innate coolness to offerings like this well-restored Ford F1. No gimmicks, no customization and no modern 'conveniences' distracting you from an engaging driving experience. Just a factory-spec throwback to the golden days of America and hardworking visionaries who built an empire. A cool head turner that celebrates blue collar swagger, this polished pickup capitalizes on timeless design and universal appeal. And, whether you're a diehard Ford fan, an old school truck lover or just a curious buyer who's looking for something wholly traditional, it's a cool classic that's sure to please!
BODYWORK/TRIM
While its basic shape is certainly appealing, first rate detailing is what makes this F1 really pop. Dressed and ready to roll, the truck was meticulously rebuilt during a thorough, ground-up restoration that included a traditional coat of Sheridan Blue 2-stage. Under that retro pigment, an incredibly straight fuselage features solid panels that display good fit and finish. Sleeved tailgate chains activate to reveal a highly varnished bed that's secured by Black skid strips. In addition to just the right amount of chrome, the truck's idealistic profile is highlighted by Black bumpers, Black steps and a bright silver grille. And overall, this road-ready cruiser carries every indication that its high-quality reboot was a well-planned effort.
ENGINE
If Henry Ford perfected one aspect of his automobiles, it was the Ford V8. Introduced in 1932 as a durable, torque-rich competitor to more expensive and labor-intensive 8-cylinders, the 'flatty' quickly became the standard for traditional and kustom builds. And, in keeping with that tradition, this strapping classic is powered by a correct, 239 cubic inch 8RT block. The throaty mill spins smooth 6.75 to 1 compression into an even 100 horsepower and 181 lb./ft. of reliable torque. Rebuilt and largely correct, the bright red engine perches a small Ford carburetor on 24-bolt heads. Cool details, like Ford-branded hoses, a Ford voltage regulator and an old school generator, add enough texture to sit at the show. And overall, this pickup's body-matched engine bay is a charming and 100% functional step back in to a much simpler, and some would say better, period of American automotive history.
DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION
Crawling under this classy blue oval reveals a sturdy frame and solid floors that are coated in a clean combination of red and black pigment. Power meets the ground through a traditional 3-speed, which twists torque to a proven 10-bolt axle. Correct leaf springs and drum brakes occupy all four corners of the chassis, mixing rugged road prowess with firm and solid stops. A single-pipe exhaust system begins with cast iron manifolds and progresses through a factory replacement muffler. And everything rolls on Sheridan Blue steelies, which turn 6.00-16 BF Goodrich Silvertown 4-plys around polished, Ford-stamped hubcaps.
INTERIOR
When you pop this pickup's doors, you'll find a crisp vinyl cockpit that's simple and purposeful. A requisite bench seat complements neutral side panels, a tight headliner and a black floor mat. In front of that seat, a Sheridan Blue dash hangs vintage telemetry and a correct AM radio over a factory heater. A large steering wheel laps a thin, column-mounted shifter. And panel-free doors add to the truck's tough, utilitarian charm.

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.
