In this case, Cars & Parts either doesn't know the difference between Cars and Trucks, or...

Doesn't know that good 'ol FoMoCo used different paint codes for Cars than they did for Trucks...for the same dang color!

From the 1949/59 Ford Passenger Car Parts Catalog:

M = Coral Flame Red / N = Meadow Green

Well I have 4 f1s and an f3. I have 1 1/2 of the f1s restored and have not touched my f3. I love the larger trucks. Once you get past f3 they are geared so low that they are not fun to drive, but an f3 with 7.50/17s and a dana 60 with 3.73s is a "ton" of fun. I think my f3 will look "graceful" pulling my 52 f1 to a car show.
