Details

This custom 1949 Ford F1 pickup was professionally restored and upgraded. The build was completed in late 2021. Power comes from a Chevrolet Performance 350/290hp crate engine paired with a rebuilt Turbo 350 3-speed automatic transmission. The engine is dressed with a chrome air cleaner and finned valve covers, with spent gases exiting through a set of headers with dual side-exit exhaust. This '49 is sitting on a late-model S10 chassis fitted with all new front suspension, brakes and shocks. The body is solid, and the beautiful patina is protected by Poppy's Patina clearcoat. The bed floor was replaced and matched to the truck's finish. The interior features a custom contoured and French-stitched bench seat, air conditioning, carpeted floor, new AutoMeter gauge cluster, a wood steering wheel atop a chrome Ididit tilt column, Lokar tall shifter and a JVC satellite-capable radio with KICKER speakers. This truck also has power steering and power front disc brakes with rear drums. The fuel tank has been relocated under the bed with a bed-mounted filler cap. It rolls on staggered 15x8 and 15x10 American Racing wheels with an aggressive stance. **TITLED AS 1949 FORD FIE**
