It is ugly which makes it interesting and it is for sale. Anyone out there in MLU world who knows anything about this type of Ford truck and if used by the military.

Tony..
What you have there is a 1948-50 F5 or F 6 Ford C.O.E. ...a real beauty too..looks complete for chrome parts .It is post war but the military did use them too..
It would be nice fixed up and painted Fire engine red with black Fenders and hood..(wings and bonnets)..
And all the chrome redone..Give it to the wife to pick up Vegemite and beer at the store...
Show her how much you think of her..
Big love...Big truck..
Here is another one here..
