Introduced in 1948, Ford's new F-Series trucks quickly won the hearts of thousands of buyers. With only mild styling changes and mechanical upgrades, the basic 1948 design lasted through the 1956 model year. Today, because of their immense popularity, Ford continues to produce F-Series trucks, but the first models will always be remembered as "the classics."

Classic Ford F-Series Pickup Trucks 1948-1956 celebrates the glory of Ford's early F-Series trucks. Included here are all the pickups, sedan deliveries, medium-duty trucks, over-the-road heavy-duty rigs, and rare Canadian Mercury trucks that made the F-Series famous. Also highlighted are fabulous customized trucks that have received hand-built modifications and personalized features.

Author and truck expert Don Bunn provides year-by-year model histories and changes, technical details, and interviews with retired designers and engineers. Beautiful color photography of restored and customized trucks, combined with archival black and white pictures and period advertisements, illustrate this great period of Ford truck production.
