The Ford F-Series is a legendary nameplate that continues to this day. In addition to pickup trucks, the F-Series is also known for panel vans and cab chassis trucks too. Naturally, it makes an excellent platform to build a custom vehicle, such as this 1952 Ford F-3 Custom that's up for sale with us right now. This is a build like no other and is still a blank canvas in the sense that you can choose what you'd like to do with its cavernous rear space. Let's discover more about this unique vehicle.
Exterior and Interior
The new paint job that was reportedly done in 2023 saw this 1952 Ford F-3 Custom decked out in a catchy Dolphin's Teal and Orange two-tone theme. Indeed it does look stunning, aided by its white steel wheels with new Firestone Destination tires. Furthermore, the rear wheels are 'faired-in' with orange covers. We observe that all lighting and brightwork appear in great nick, and the current owner tells us that added rear-view mirrors are on board to enhance visibility due to the sizable box behind the cab. A hood vent has been added as well. Inside the cab, the original red color of the truck is visible, as is its classic bench seat and white-accented dashboard. The original push-button radio still sits in the dash but is reportedly not functioning. In fact, the interior has been left as-is, as a sort of time capsule to remind us of what this truck was like in its heyday. Whether you choose to keep it like this, restore it to period glory, or modernize it is entirely up to you. Meanwhile, the sizable cargo box behind the cab has been outfitted with shelves for storage but otherwise remains a blank canvas. Perhaps you can turn it into a camper. Or a food truck. Or a mobile office. The possibilities are endless. The vehicle's build plate tells us that it bears a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 6,800 pounds, so bear that in mind.
Engine
This 1952 Ford F-3 Custom appears to pack a V8 under the hood, possibly the 239ci Flathead V8 that was offered across the range, although we can't confirm it with certainty. A manual transmission sends power to the wheels. Furthermore, we're told that the truck has received a new starter, gas tank, brakes, belts, radiator and wiring unit.

Ford’s F-Series are arguably the most popular range of trucks in the United States of America, with a history dating back to 1948 and spanning fourteen generations to date. How did it all start? Way back in 1948, the first F-Series marked the divergence of Ford’s car and truck businesses, and was also known as the Ford Bonus-Built. Available as a two-door pickup or four-door panel truck, the F-Series quickly gained a reputation for being tough and workmanlike. This is a resto-modded 1949 Ford F-3 302ci from Texas with just 75 post-restoration miles. F-3 signifies that it’s a ¾ ton truck with a heavy-duty rating. If classic Ford trucks are your thing, step right this way!
One of the most prominent postwar trucks in Ford F-Series, also known as "Bonus Built" lineup was the 1951 pickup. Although not having the most handsome appearance by today's standards, being the first version of the Ford F-Series, it also represented the first generation of "true" trucks that were not based on a prior car platform. First-generation models come in eight variations starting with the lightest capacity, the F-1, and the F-8 being the version with the maximum capacity. The lineup included trucks ranging from half-ton pickups to three-ton commercial haulers, making it the most varied in Ford truck history. Today, classic truck collectors find little to no examples of this generation of trucks, at least in acceptable condition. In the realm of today’s truck collectors, it’s not easy to stop one of these as well, a 1951 Ford F3 Pickup. Located in Michigan, it bundles a joyful attitude and awaits its next buyer.
Nicknamed “Old-Hooker,” this 1962 Ford F-100 is far more than a vintage pickup—it’s a thoughtfully engineered restomod that blends authentic patina, handcrafted details, and proven performance upgrades into one unforgettable package. Originally from Georgia and showing approximately 63,667 miles, this truck retains its original color and weathered character while benefiting from extensive mechanical and chassis improvements. From its handcrafted flatbed constructed from reclaimed century-old lumber to its upgraded Windsor V8 and modern suspension, Old-Hooker embodies the spirit of traditional American hot rodding while remaining practical and highly usable. Included with the sale are additional induction components, performance parts, and even some vintage fishing gear that has accompanied the truck during show appearances, adding another layer of personality to this unique build.
Classic hot rod styling never goes out of fashion, and this 1932 Ford Model B Roadster Hot Rod is a perfect example of why enthusiasts continue to gravitate toward the iconic Deuce Ford. Showing approximately 18,071 miles, this professionally built roadster combines timeless pre-war design with proven small-block Chevrolet V8 performance and modern driving manners. Finished in an elegant Cream and Rose Gold color combination over a Tan leather interior, this custom build captures the spirit of traditional American hot rodding while offering the comfort and reliability expected from a contemporary cruiser. With its fiberglass roadster body, rumble seat, chrome wire wheels, and extensive brightwork, this Ford is equally suited for local cruise nights, weekend shows, or leisurely drives on scenic back roads.
Classic styling and modern drivability come together beautifully in this 1955 Ford F-100 Pickup. Showing approximately 4,301 miles, this iconic second-generation F-Series has been thoughtfully upgraded to offer the charm of a vintage truck without sacrificing comfort and usability. Beneath its timeless sheet metal sits a dependable 302ci V8 paired with an automatic transmission, while upgrades such as power steering, front disc brakes, air conditioning, and a custom interior make it far more enjoyable to drive than a stock example. Finished in an eye-catching red exterior over a gray leather cabin, this F-100 represents an ideal blend of hot rod attitude, show-quality presentation, and weekend cruising enjoyment.
