Default Carl's 1950 F-1 Picture

Thought I would post pictures of my restored 1950 F-1 since posting has gotten so easy a Ford man can do it. Thanks to Walt Dupont who helped me with a stuck valve problem on a newly rebuilt engine and others who contributed through this forum. Currently swapping out the crash box for a rebuilt hd 3spd This truck was a one-owner, bone-stock farm truck from Yakima. Purchased from the original owner's wife.

Nice truck Carl, The Walt Dupont rebuilt the 59AB going in my 39 1/2 ton. He is a flathead encyclopedia!! When I complete my 39, I am looking to restore one of those Bonus Built trucks. Got my eye on a 48 as we speak. The owner uses it as an advertisement for his pigroast co. I drive by it every day, watching it weater away.

Gowd, that thing is beautiful! Reach around and pat yourself on the back for any claim to building this truck, Man.

Those are Harley Davidson accessory fender lights.
