Vehicle Description


1951 Ford F1 Pickup

Exterior
The 1951 Ford pickup introduced a new front end. Gone is a smiling
horizontal-bar grille and inboard headlamps, replaced by a
single-bar grille with three massive "teeth". These are painted
silver in this truck. A wraparound front bumper, dripping in
chrome, that gives these trucks a more aggressive frontal
appearance. Fenders of this truck present in silver along with
running boards. Being somewhat taller, those fenders allowed the
hood to adopt a flatter, more modern appearance and this one does
not disappoint with its maroon pants and chromed trim spear looking
like a rocket going through some heavy air. The "million dollar"
cab is nicely penned and also shows in maroon painted steel with
shiny window trimmings. Doors are minding their gaps nicely and
have a chromed stalk round mirror off of either side. The bed sides
are in maroon as is the tailgate, and the bed has been relined with
pine boards with steel mounting ribs between the planks. The back
bottom is trimmed with another shiny curved smile bumper and round
tail lights on either corner. The moon caps and chromed trim rings
are covering the steel wheels which are wrapped in 235/75R15s for
the 25th week of 2016 and have raised outlined white letter
edges.

Interior
Inside Ill need to invoke my safe word as I can see many shades of
gray. The doors have maroon edges and silver steel panels with a
broadcloth gray panel housing a speaker. Inside, a gray vinyl bench
stretches from door to door and has some paneled stitched inserts.
Upfront the original dash is now appearing in silver and it has new
round gauges in blackface and white lettering and numbering. The
speedo uses a pink LED readout for the mileage. Below is a lineup
of pulls and knobs and in the center is the radio grille with a
Pioneer AM/FM/CD digital stereo hiding below the dash. A nice wood
rimmed and billet center rally steering wheel is atop the trucks
original column with its 40s looking turn signal box on the side.
Round pedals are in and float above black rubber flooring which is
perfect for that job site. In the center is a modern "cooler" style
console for storage, cup holders, and it can be removed for travel
with you. The interior above is lined with gray melamine which is
beautifully smooth and perfectly fitted.

Drivetrain
Under the hood is the correct 239ci V8 flathead engine. It has been
restored finish wise, but as to mechanicals, its unknown. It has a
single 2-barrel carburetor on top, and a 3-speed manual
transmission on back. A 3.92 rear axle is on to turn the tires. A
stock style exhaust is seen and looks clean, as does the entire
engine bay.

Undercarriage
Clean, and even the bed boards are stained underneath. Nice black
framing and leaf spring suspension working with drum brakes
provides the ride.
