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.
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.
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.

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.
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!

Widely considered as one of the first proper American Sport Utility Vehicles, the Ford Bronco came in 1966, and ran for five generations until 1996. Ford then decided to withdraw the nameplate, amidst some grumbling from the public.

Ford’s Model T was such a runaway hit that they had to really knock it out of the park with a successor. Cue up 1927’s Ford Model A, of which over 4.8 million were sold by 1932. The Model A brought about many improvements, including a 3-speed gearbox, a top speed of over 65mph which was positively dizzying in those days, and the traditional layout of clutch, brake, accelerator pedals from left to right. Very few will know that a Model T also had three pedals but with totally different arrangements. Finding a Model A in pristine order is still tough, but we’ve got an appealing 1929 Ford Model A Roadster for sale today. Coming from Natick, Massachusetts, this car boasts 90,000 miles and looks in great condition for something that’s just four years shy of its Centurion birthday.
After making the transition to building civilian versions of their famed military off-roaders, Jeep quickly became a byword for stylish, practical, and dependable transport that could do anything and go virtually anywhere.
