What are the smallest Ford Trucks ever made?

Doesn't matter where - the Thames/Anglia's were one thought I had.

They are a bit hard to find though - so I was thinking in year groups 60 to 69, 70 to 79, 80 to 89, and up...

Courier is one that's tuff to find in the USA now, but I'm thinking a wee bit tinier than them.

(Smaller is better if the engine is BIGGER)

BASIC THEORY DEFINED: Get the smallest set of wheels you can, and stuff a huge engine into it

Well, the 72-75 Courier was pretty small, the 76 had a longer cab and then the second generation 77-82 was bigger all around, but not by much.
The old Falcon Rancheros were about the same size as the second gen Courier, just proportioned a bit differently.

I had a 74 Courier..........2 normal sized people in it, forget bringing your lunch box in the cab.
A Ranger in comparison feels like a F-350.

Model T pickups--not sure of load capacity, but looks pretty small.

WWII jeeps, specified as "1/4 ton truck" iirc.
