For Sale: 1948 Ford F1 in Lavergne, Tennessee for sale in La Vergne, TN
Vehicle Description You can instantly tell that this 1948 Ford F-1 is more than just vintage.
With its raised stance, custom interior, functional upgrades, and proper V8 power, it takes the iconic classic pickup you love and gives it a nice dose of modern everyday appeal.
There has always been a look in the first-generation F-Series that suggested the styling was inspired by a freight train.
The bright and tall grille felt like a cowcatcher pushing traffic out of the way.
And this one takes that beefy attitude and turns it up a notch.
The stance is lifted so that this sits above the other vintage trucks out there, you also have full diamond plate side steps, modern 15-inch wheels, and bright dual exhaust tips.
The red paint is a good upgrade that has a bold style but a job-ready attitude.
It goes with the upgrade to towing side mirrors and a proper trailer hitch for those times when you want to put this Ford to work.
There's even a Mack bulldog hood ornament leading the way to drive home the feeling of industrial power.
But this upgraded truck also never loses that vintage charm that's at the heart of a Ford F-1.
The rounded fenders, chrome bumpers, full-length wood bed rails, and matching lumber in the truck bed - it's all part of what makes this a really cool classic.
Just like the exterior, the interior mixes vintage and upgraded.
For example, you still have a classic-style bench seat, but it has a freshness from a newer cover.
The door panels are classic steel, but the kick plates are a cool diamond plate to match the exterior running boards.
And while the dash has the vintage smooth steel look, it also now houses a retro-style AM/FM digital tuner w/Bluetooth.
The driving experience is upgraded with a Billet Specialties steering wheel, an Ididit tilt column, clear Dolphin gauges, and a B&M shifter in the center console.
This F-1 has traded in its flathead power for a larger and more powerful V8, but it doesn't leave the Ford family.
The 351 cubic-inch motor is a long-standing hardy heart, and this one is supported by the right pieces, like an Accel Super Coil, Taylor Spiro-Pro wires, and a Mallory distributor.
It's a string-running powerhouse that makes a proper V8 tune out of the dual exhaust.
This one likes to give you the right kind of classic pickup feel out on the road, but it also wants to be far more useful.
That's why this also has easy driving features like rack & pinion power steering, a three-speed automatic transmission, power brakes with front discs, and modern tires afforded by the wheel upgrade.
With only about 2,700 miles on this build, you're looking at a solid, custom, and practical F-1.
So if you love vintage appeal with the right useful upgrades, call today!.
