Spotted this 1951 Ford F-1 back in May while bicycling through Kenmore. That big white pickup pulled up and parked right next to it as I was getting ready to get a shot from the driver’s side. Ugh. Back in ’51, the cab design of the F-1 was shared pretty much throughout most of the Ford truck lineup, with some modifications for size, of course, as you can see below with the F-6 medium-duty tractor. These days, I don’t believe there’s a medium- or heavy-duty truck manufacturer in North America which builds a pickup with which it could share any styling cues.
