With only mild tweeks and updates, the basic 1948 Ford truck design lasted through the 1956 model year. Classic Ford F-Series Pickup Trucks 1948-1956 celebrates the glory of Ford's early F-Series trucks - 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.

The photography was excellent and the stories and details on Ford collectable trucks were quite interesting. If you are into old car or truck history or collecting, this is a great addition to your library. Buy it!

This review is from: Classic Ford F-Series Pickup Trucks, 1948-1956 (Truck Color History) (Paperback)
An excellent book. Does exactly what it says on the cover. Detailed and informative text, with lots of entertaining and well written information. Well illustrated throughout with both monochrome and full colour pictures. Including period ads and photos and recent photos of restored and customised examples of Ford trucks. Highly recommended
