1940's Ford 1/2 ton deliveries
Can anyone supply photos and production numbers of 1940-52 Ford 1/2 ton deliveries? They seem to all be coachbuilt. Any info on coachworks would be great as well.
Thanks,
Drew

You mean the passenger car style front end deliveries, right? I believe Ford built those trucks on their own lines, in house. The truck style panels were also built on the line as well.

Thanks for the info. I should have been more desrciptive in my previous post. The half ton deliveries I need info on, are the box truck type built on pickup frames. All of the photos I've found have been 3/4 ton and up except one 38 or 39 Canadian in a copy of V8 Times. I'm pretty sure the low numbers of Sedan Deliveries are many times greater than the trucks I need info on.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I thought you might mean the ones built on teh truck platform, but wasn't sure. Sorry, but you said box truck type...you mean cargo area seperate from the cab, like a U-Haul kind of truck, or you mean a panel truck? The panel trucks built by Ford that were based on the trucks had the passenger area shared with the cargo area. You could order a cab and chassis only from Ford, and add whatever kind of body you wanted later on. If you do mean box truck type, as in a moving truck style compartment on the back...yes, those would be built by outside firms, and you probably just bought the box from a manufacturer and put it on your truck. Numbers for that would be hard to find, since I'm sure some never kept track of what truck the box was going on.
