Description for Ford 1/2 Ton Pickup 1950

This beautiful fully restored 1950 Ford Truck is a Canadian F47 Model, which is the same as the U.S Version F1 Truck.

The front and rear suspension was completely rebuilt to better than new.
The original non power 4 wheel drum brakes were replaced with an upgraded Front Power Disc brake conversion kit.
