There is a nice '51 F1 pickup that will be in an estate auction in Cumberland, Maine this Saturday. I have no financial interest in this and I live more than 1000 miles away. The pickup is lot #69 among more than 100 lots in the sale. Here is a URL for the web site that has photos of the items in the auction.

Does anyone from the northeast know this truck? On second look, it appears to be a '52 being listed as a '51.
There is also a '65, an '82 pickup and a 1949 F5 truck with a welding unit on the flatbed.
I am going to insert an image URL here but the picture is huge and to see it properly you may have to zoom your view to 30% or scroll to the lower right hand corner to see the pickup.

 

The VIN provided in the auction description decodes it to be a 1951 with a V8 built in Atlanta. The truck just has the wrong year hood from a 1952, along with the trim. The emblem on the front of the hood denotes a 215 OHV 6 cylinder (brand new engine for 1952 model year). Also note the stainless windshield trim, which is the only 5 Star Extra Cab option visible on that truck from this picture.

Still not a bad truck.

 

There are many nice vehicles in this auction. I wish I could attend but Maine is a bit of a drive from Indiana. If someone in the New England region does attend, I hope they might post a report on how the auction went. I would be curious to see what the vehicles will bring.

 

I'd want to see the underside of anything up there, I fear for massive rust..... but a nice enough looking truck overall.
