My first truck was a 1950 F1, put a 58 Olds J2, Engine, 371 cubic inches, in it with a stock 3-sp... didn't know any better; plenty of room for the engine !
If I could afford one or rebuild one, it would be a '52 but we will see !
I swapped the '50 F1 for a 1950 Mercury, 2-dr, the guy took the engine out of the truck and I got it put it in the Merc.
A lot of fun for shrt cash back then !
Most of the 40's, 50's, and 60's Truck were nice looking, the latter being not as nice as the other two earlier decades, but when done up they all look good !
