This 1952 Ford F-1 served as a workhorse for a wrecker company, built for gritty service. Its flat black exterior, adorned with red pinstriping, showcases years of hard labor. The truck sits on 15-inch steel wheels, sporting 235/75R15 tires that grip the asphalt with authority. A heavy-duty bumper with a tow hitch emphasizes its blue-collar roots, while tinted windows add a subtle modern touch. Ford dog dish caps, painted to match, round out the no-frills appearance of this authentic .....
working-class hero.
The cabin blends old-school functionality with practical upgrades. A southwest tapestry seat cover adds a pop of color to the brown vinyl interior. The dashboard features additional gauges, keeping tabs on the V8's performance. A Lokar shifter rises from the floor, ready for quick gear changes. This F-1 comes equipped with both an "ooooga" horn and a loud horn - perfect for clearing the way or just having some fun on the job site.
A 289 cubic inch V8 now powers this vintage hauler, a significant step up from its original powerplant. An Edelbrock intake and carburetor feed the beast, providing ample muscle for hauling or cruising. The small block pairs with a C4 3-speed automatic transmission, delivering power smoothly to the rear wheels. A new radiator keeps temperatures in check, while the dual exhaust with Smithy's mufflers gives this F-1 a deep, authoritative tone. Front disc brakes provide modern stopping power, a crucial upgrade for this classic truck.
