Trump speaks in front of 48-52 Ford truck

Did you guys see this on the news? At a Trump rally yesterday in Tallahassee Mr. Trump is speaking on a stage in front of an old Ford truck.

Here is what I saw on Fox News:



I told my wife it looks like he is in front of a Ford truck looking at the shape of the cab and the wing vent.

After some research this morning I found this picture:



The rally was held at the Tallahassee Automobile Museum. Can you 48-52 experts tell what year this truck is?

Half ton 5 Star Extra 1951 based on hood trim and chrome wind wings.

I hope this thread doesn't morph politically. FTE is a sanctuary away from all that. Stu

That's a nice looking truck. I wonder if the fenders are painted or it is a wrap?
Also, did they do that just for the event?

We have questions, we need answers. Someone get a hold of the Trump campaign so we can figure out the important issues of the day, this truck!

I have been there several times. The grill is a 48/49 so it's a mix. It's pretty rough and sits outside in front of the building. Know idea if it even runs.

So it is yard art, like that nice looking one in front of a house we saw on another thread.

This thread could soon go "too political".
