The Ford F-Series is a legendary nameplate that continues to this day. In addition to pickup trucks, the F-Series is also known for panel vans and cab chassis trucks too. Naturally, it makes an excellent platform to build a custom vehicle, such as this 1952 Ford F-3 Custom that's up for sale with us right now. This is a build like no other and is still a blank canvas in the sense that you can choose what you'd like to do with its cavernous rear space. Let's discover more about this unique vehicle.
The new paint job that was reportedly done in 2023 saw this 1952 Ford F-3 Custom decked out in a catchy Dolphin's Teal and Orange two-tone theme. Indeed it does look stunning, aided by its white steel wheels with new Firestone Destination tires. Furthermore, the rear wheels are 'faired-in' with orange covers. We observe that all lighting and brightwork appear in great nick, and the current owner tells us that added rear-view mirrors are on board to enhance visibility due to the sizable box behind the cab. A hood vent has been added as well. Inside the cab, the original red color of the truck is visible, as is its classic bench seat and white-accented dashboard. The original push-button radio still sits in the dash but is reportedly not functioning. In fact, the interior has been left as-is, as a sort of time capsule to remind us of what this truck was like in its heyday. Whether you choose to keep it like this, restore it to period glory, or modernize it is entirely up to you. Meanwhile, the sizable cargo box behind the cab has been outfitted with shelves for storage but otherwise remains a blank canvas. Perhaps you can turn it into a camper. Or a food truck. Or a mobile office. The possibilities are endless. The vehicle's build plate tells us that it bears a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 6,800 pounds, so bear that in mind.
This 1952 Ford F-3 Custom appears to pack a V8 under the hood, possibly the 239ci Flathead V8 that was offered across the range, although we can't confirm it with certainty. A manual transmission sends power to the wheels. Furthermore, we're told that the truck has received a new starter, gas tank, brakes, belts, radiator and wiring unit.

One of the most prominent postwar trucks in Ford F-Series, also known as "Bonus Built" lineup was the 1951 pickup. Although not having the most handsome appearance by today's standards, being the first version of the Ford F-Series, it also represented the first generation of "true" trucks that were not based on a prior car platform. First-generation models come in eight variations starting with the lightest capacity, the F-1, and the F-8 being the version with the maximum capacity. The lineup included trucks ranging from half-ton pickups to three-ton commercial haulers, making it the most varied in Ford truck history. Today, classic truck collectors find little to no examples of this generation of trucks, at least in acceptable condition. In the realm of today’s truck collectors, it’s not easy to stop one of these as well, a 1951 Ford F3 Pickup. Located in Michigan, it bundles a joyful attitude and awaits its next buyer.
Ford’s F-Series are arguably the most popular range of trucks in the United States of America, with a history dating back to 1948 and spanning fourteen generations to date. How did it all start? Way back in 1948, the first F-Series marked the divergence of Ford’s car and truck businesses, and was also known as the Ford Bonus-Built. Available as a two-door pickup or four-door panel truck, the F-Series quickly gained a reputation for being tough and workmanlike. This is a resto-modded 1949 Ford F-3 302ci from Texas with just 75 post-restoration miles. F-3 signifies that it’s a ¾ ton truck with a heavy-duty rating. If classic Ford trucks are your thing, step right this way!
The Ford Bronco is one of the most prolific four-by-fours in the United States. Introduced in 1965, it’s widely considered to be a pioneer of the American Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) craze. Five generations were made until 1996 when Ford decided to put the Bronco out to pasture. Enthusiasts weren’t pleased, and hounded the Blue Oval for decades, literally. To finally get them off their backs, Ford debuted the all-new sixth-generation Bronco in 2021, and things have been great. The sixth-generation Bronco has won over fans of classic ones, as well as carved out a new audience of younger people who desire to venture into the wilderness so that they can TikTok and Instagram their escapades. Regardless of which camp you belong to, this 2024 Ford Bronco Hennessey Velociraptor 500 is definitely worth consideration. It’s a custom build by tuners Hennessey Performance, and bears less than 5,000 miles on the clock. You’ll also know how much horsepower it has merely by reading out its full title. Furthermore, it’s 1 of only 200 built with the Freedom Package.
Ford’s Mustang created a cult, started a trend, and spearheaded a segment. Thanks to Ford’s dynamic team, which included Lee Iacocca, Donald Frey, and Gale Helderman, the Mustang was meant to be a sporty but accessible car that could perform family duties as well. Hence, the pony car was born. Depending on which school of inspiration you believe, the Mustang is named after the legendary P-51 Mustang aircraft, as well as the American quarter horse of the same name. Nevertheless, owning a first-generation Mustang is a bucket list item for many, and we’ve got a lovingly restored 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback for sale today. The car’s full restoration concluded in 2023, and it has a stroked V8 engine that provides more power.
In a world of electric cars and small turbocharged engines, we find gems that go against the grain, like the Ford Mustang you see here. A thoroughbred sports car, the Mustang is the ultimate definition of excess. the newest generation S650 Mustang is a perfect blend of classic muscle and modern technology. Meanwhile, RTR (a.k.a Ready To Rock) is a sub-division owned and headed by formula drift champion Vaughn Gittin Jr. responsible for tuning and turning the already bonkers Mustang into a tire-burning absolute monster of a machine. This example we have on offer is a 2024 Mustang GT RTR Spec 2 with just 735 miles on the odometer.
Jeep rose to become America’s most popular maker of off-roaders through a rich history that started way back in 1948. Along the way, they also introduced some luxury-oriented models, such as the Grand Wagoneer. Debuting in 1984 as a more plush and well-equipped variant of Jeep’s Wagoneer, the Grand Wagoneer that we have today is a fine example from 1991. Moreover, this 1991 Jeep Grand Wagoneer comes with just 74,410 miles on the clock. So grab yourself a slice of Jeep history while you can; it’s a vehicle that can even act as your daily driver if desired.
Willys-Overland, makers of the original World War II military Jeep knew that with the War ending, they’d have to turn to civilian vehicles. Hence the arrival of the Jeep CJ series in 1944. The series progressed from CJ-1 to CJ-10A, in a production run that spanned 1944 and 1986, and by the time the Jeep CJ was replaced by the Wrangler, Jeep had built over 1.5 million examples. Hence, finding a Jeep CJ isn’t hard, but you’d better pick a fully-restored example, such as this 1966 Jeep CJ-5. The current owner says that the engine and gearbox have been rebuilt, with the engine packing less than 200 miles since then. Impressively, this car is entirely brand new! So, it’s basically a turn-key classic that’s waiting for a new owner.
The Chevy C/K Series was also marketed under the GMC name, as continues to this day with the Chevy Silverado/GMC Sierra combo. After all, why invest millions of dollars to develop a truck for each brand under your umbrella when you can share synergies? Automakers have been doing it for decades, which is one of the main reasons why we have such a broad array of models on offer. The GMC C1500 is basically a Chevy C10, and was produced alongside it. Hence, this 1969 GMC C1500 Suburban Pickup hails from the second generation of the series, and has undergone a full frame-off restoration effort that concluded in 2020. Living in Goodland, Florida, this fine truck could be yours.
