1948 Ford F-100 Description

1948 Ford F-1 Panel Truck

Originally came from a museum in Arizona going out of business. Sold to a neon-delivery company in Arizona. I purchased it to turn into a mobile prosthetics lab (see pictures at Kogan Prosthetics web page). So it had been used for several years as a work vehicle (minor blemishes) in addition to a multiple trophy winner at car shows.

8-year Frame off Restoration (all metal NO fiberglass) includes the following modifications:

  • 351 Windsor engine from a 1970 Ford Torino (less than 10,000 miles from install to present)
