Ford F-Series - Custom - 1st Gen (1951 to 1952)

The 1951-1952 Ford F-Series featured styling updates to the exterior cab, interior, bed, and technical updates. Due to the popularity of these trucks, a wide range of these vehicles were converted into Custom creations. While the F-1 was most familiar as a 6 1/2' pick-up bed, multiple configurations were available, including a parcel delivery truck, deluxe panel truck, 8' pick-up, platform/stake, and cab-only. Notably, the front end was updated to a broader "horizontal wing" grill. Often restored and modified by enthusiasts, these trucks frequently see engine and drivetrain swaps, custom exterior treatments and paint jobs, and even custom frame applications. Ford marketed this generation as The Worlds Greatest Trucks" and redesigned the truck as the Second Generation F-Series for the 1953 model year.
