1950 Ford F1 – Larry K.

Vietnam Vets Dream

The journey of the truck started with Jon the vet. He found it along the highway for sale in parts. He always wanted a 1950 ford F-1 as that is what he learned to drive on the farm. He drug it home & after several years him & a friend got it running on the old flat head. He drove it that way for several years and than his health started to fade. He didn’t want the truck to get passed around and sold and resold he wanted someone to finish it. That’s where I come in having several other old cars he came to me to buy it. We drove it as is while we orders parts from LMC truck. After a year or so another neighbor seen the truck and owns Cloquet collision so Rick got after me to get the truck finished. An than unfortunately Jon was killed in a car wreck. So that winter Rick took the truck and put on all the new parts & painted it. It came out fantastic. All in the memory of John Seville. Sill runs on the flat head 8 with 2 duces.[lmc_story_gallery]
