About this 1949 Ford F-1

VIN: 98RC189020

This 1949 Ford F-1 panel truck was the subject of a custom build in the mid 1980s that included repainting the body in orange with airbrushed murals on each side inspired by the 1968 film The Night They Raided Minsky’s.

The mural has been wrapped in high gloss 3m vinyl. This truck is ready for your logo! This will make the ultimate shop truck or family cruiser!

Power is provided by a 350ci V8 linked to a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission and a 10-bolt rear end. Inside, a bench seat is trimmed in black and white vinyl and accompanied by a cassette radio and a B&M floor shifter, while the rear cargo area has a simulated wood floor along with vinyl-trimmed side panels. Additional equipment includes an Edelbrock intake manifold and carburetor, custom aluminum engine-compartment panels, power steering and brakes, 15″ Cragar wheels, and custom fenderwell headers linked to a dual exhaust system.
