Whether you’re looking for a vintage truck for fun, to complete your collection or as a moving billboard for a business, MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to offer this 1946 Ford Panel Truck. It used to reside in the Kokomo Automotive Museum in Kokomo, Indiana. In the 1940s and 1950s, if one needed more covered space than a sedan offered to haul things, a panel truck was the commercial vehicle of choice until compact vans arrived in the early 1960s.

As with everyone else’s postwar vehicles, Ford’s styling carried over from 1942. This example’s white paint with blue trim, which was recently repainted and its trim are in very good shape with minor imperfections, as are the glass sections, clear and crack-free. Its lights are in excellent condition, as are the vehicle’s blue wheels, with dog dish wheel covers. All of the body panels are straight, including the metal step plates on the runningboards. In many cases back then, the side-mounted spare tire was just a wheel; even after the war, rubber supplies were short, and many vehicles didn’t come with a mounted tire. The truck’s bumpers are in very good condition while the cargo area is in good overall shape. Please note the graphics on the sides of the truck are vinyl and easily removable if you choose to replace with your own logo, we can even provide the vinyl service for your new graphics.

There is understood to be a 350 CID V-8 under the hood, attached to a three-speed automatic transmission.

Inside, the black bench seat is in very good order. The truck offers no carpeting but the floor has mats and is in good shape. The truck’s headliner is in very good condition while the gray metal instrument panel is in very good order, with its Equus speedometer and Auto Meter ancillary gauges. The black, three-spoke steering wheel is in good shape, as are the gray door skins, the mirror glass and the gearshift lever. This a radio delete model. In the rear, the cargo bay is in overall good condition and includes a jack but no spare tire. Currently the fuel gauge and the left headlight low beam are inoperable.

Competition to this Ford in 1946 included Chevrolet’s Panel Van and Dodge’s Model WX half-ton panel van. This line of Ford trucks was the final ones prior to the vaunted F-series, which debuted in 1948.
