Up for sale is this gorgeous 51 Ford F1 pickup with only 24,314 actual miles from new. You won't believe how spectacular this 30+ year old paint is. This truck is as clean on the bottom as it is on the top. Same family owned, always garage kept, was part of 3 weddings. This truck was built in the Louisville Kentucky plant, and is equipped with it's all original 239 cubic inch Flat head V8 and 3 speed manual transmission. Everything at listing is working on the truck including, lights, horn, gauges, heater etc. Tires are old and Brakes should be checked but I drove it home several miles and it drives and shifts effortlessly. The paint is gorgeous with only a few minor scratches, but for a 30 year old paint job it is border line spectacular, near show worthy. Interior is nice and the rubber floor, pedals and steering wheel look like a 24,000 mile vehicles should. The passenger door window has a crack as does the drivers wing vent but they are the original "FORD" stamped glass so we are not going to replace them. A truck like this would easily surpass $50k at one of the major auctions and then you pay buyers fees and so on. Our reserve is considerably less. Please look at the photos as they tell the story of this fantastic 51 Ford F 1 pickup. They don't come along like this very often.
