Classic Ford Wrecks

Hi,

I am putting together a book of photographs of wrecked automobiles, trucks and buses (mostly Ford) I have several Ford trucks that are in such a condition that I can't tell their year. Can anyone help me out?

Are you just making a scrapbook? Or are you actually getting them together and made into books? Sounds like a really kool book your putting together if you make more then one a few of us members here would possibly be interested in buying a copy.

Yes, I am putting together a book. Still looking for a publisher but may self publish. I can keep you updated about its completion and how to purchase copies. Thanks.

Zeroing In On Model

I now believe the three truck photos may be F500 or F800 trucks. How can you tell which is which? Photos are repeated below.

Definitely are the big F series trucks. As to what years they are I'm not sure as I don't know all to much on the bigger trucks also not much on the trucks to distinguish what exact year they are. Yes keep us informed on the publishing good luck with it really kool idea your doing.

Thank you

Thank you for your kind comments. I would appreciate any comments about the dates and models on my photos. I spent many hours verifying them, but could have mistaken a vehicle.
