Background Story of this 1948 Ford F-5

Overview of 1948 Ford F-5 For Sale by Owner

Now here’s a veritable legend up for grabs in Camarillo, California! This 1948 Ford F-5 Flatbed Restomod is one of the very first Ford F-Series trucks to hit the roads, as 1948 was the launch year for the F-Series, now in its fourteenth generation as of 2026. Can you think of any other nameplate that has endured for over seven decades like this (OK fine, we know, the Corvette, but this precedes that by five years). This lovely vintage truck has a host of upgrades and boasts just 3,120 miles since then. It’s got a plucky 496ci V8 under the hood, a 4L80E 4-speed automatic transmission, a custom wood bed, and more to enjoy.

Exterior and Interior

Gunmetal Gray is the predominant body color of this 1948 Ford F-5 Flatbed Restomod, but Exposed Wood would also be a suitably apt descriptor of its exterior color. That’s because the cargo area features a custom wood bed and sides, with custom storage boxes as well. It makes for a striking two-tone appearance, three-tone if you count the black wheels that this truck rides on. It’s got a dually rear axle, by the way. Now, we get to its face and find the iconic first-generation F-Series front looking at you, with those single circular headlamps within the broader grille surround. It’s almost like the truck is smiling at you! Beneath all this lies a 1997 Chevrolet 1-Ton chassis, so you know that it’s durable. There’s also an electric windshield wiper system in place. The interior of this 1948 Ford F-5 Flatbed Restomod features Auto Meter gauges, a Flaming River tilt steering column, air conditioning, and leather-upholstered seating. It’s a nice place to spend time in, as you steer this beauty along the streets.

Engine

This 1948 Ford F-5 Flatbed Restomod comes with the powertrain from a 1997 Chevy, we’re told. So, there’s a fuel-injected 496ci V8 under the hood. It’s paired with a 4L80E 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. Reportedly, the truck is also four-wheel drive, with both axles getting power. You’ve got a Hydroboost braking system with front disc brakes, front power steering and a Frostbite aluminum radiator with electric cooling fan as well.

1932 Ford Model B 5-Window Coupe

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$59,990

Ford’s 1932 line-up comprised three variants, with the Model B offering a more frugal four-cylinder variant to the range. Today’s 1932 Ford Model B 5-Window Coupe Hot Rod is as far removed from that mien as possible. It’s a fine custom hot rod job from Port Orange and comes to you in bright red, no less. Gone is the old, wheezy four-cylinder unit and in its place is a proper 350ci V8 from arch-rivals Chevrolet, plus an automatic gearbox. An aftermarket exhaust system is also present, allowing the car to make a statement. On the inside, you’ll find a similarly custom affair, and with just 17,752 miles on the whole thing, this is one curio you really shouldn’t scroll past without considering.

1956 Ford F-100 Restomod

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$65,000

The sky is not the limit when going about restomodding a classic car, and while that does sound like an appealing statement, it is also scary. There are many ways you could go about turning a classic that has weathered years of existence into something that can truly take away from what it is, into something that is unrecognisable. There is a rare occasion that a restomod is done right, and we have one of those instances taking shape with this 1956 Ford F-100 Restomod.

1986 Jeep CJ-7

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$29,999

This gray 1986 Jeep CJ-7 comes from the very last year of Jeep CJ production, a legacy that began in 1944. Willys-Overland knew that with World War II coming to a conclusion, their military Jeep sales would dry up significantly. So, they turned it into a tough and capable civilian off-roader, and the rest, as they say, is history. Produced through several iterations, the CJ finally bowed out in 1986, giving way to a nameplate that we all know and love; Wrangler. So, this 56,081-mile machine from Mount Gilead, Ohio is a piece of history and also includes a removable hardtop with the sale. Yes, one of the CJ and Wrangler’s party pieces is a removable hardtop that can be replaced with a variety of options, including full soft tops, bikini tops, or simply left topless. This machine comes with the 4.2-liter AMC straight six under the hood, paired with a 4-speed manual box and of course, four-wheel drive!

1970 Volkswagen Type 2 Riviera Camper

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$49,999

Today’s 1970 Volkswagen Type 2 Riviera Camper is the sort of simple yet dependable vehicle that you can easily take on a road trip without a second thought. It’s built on the famous Volkswagen Type 2 Microbus or Kombi platform, if its friendly green and white bodywork wasn’t enough of a calling card for its lineage. With an airy tan interior, a Riviera pop-top, rear bench-style seating and even the “Rock-N-Roll” bed option, this is definitely a digital detox machine at its finest. Plus, with the purr of its little air-cooled flat four in the background, this 34,431-mile machine from Winter Springs is not only reliable, but easy to maintain.
