1950 Mercury M47 Ford F1 Half Ton Short Bed Pickup Flathead V8 Patina NO RESERVE

1950 Mercury M47 Half Ton Short Bed Pickup Truck. Remarkably original and solid truck. A very good candidate for a full restoration. Selling withNo Reserveto the highest bidder.
It has a very solid rust free body for one of these 48-50 Mercury trucks. The floorboards are very good. There is a little rust in the front fenderswhere they usually rust but not bad at all. The Mercury specific tailgate and emblems are all present. The Mercury tailgate is remarkably straight, likely the bestI've seenand those of you that appreciate how rare these tailgates are will understand how important that is. These are usually beat up andrusted or missing and are not re-produced. Overall this is a very good solidexample of a Half Ton 48-50 Mercury pickup truck due to few surviving in the harsh northern climate.
The interior is complete and inexpected condition for its age. The Mercury specific horn button is present. The seat obviously needs repairing.
Mechanically this truck is complete butthe motor is seized. It will need completely going through or replacing with a more up to date drivetrain. All tires hold air and it rolls freely.
Due to the much smaller Canadian market, Ford of Canada only sold approximately one tenth as many trucks as Ford did in the US and around two thirds of those were Ford's leaving the remaining third to be Mercury's. So very few of these trucks where produced and it is becoming much harder for us to source nice original and complete examples such as this. Due to Canada's harsh climate only a handful remain today.

This will make a great project and is a far nicer starting point than many of the barn finds that we sell. Seldom do we find half ton trucks of this era in such solid shape. Bid with confidence and feel free to message with any questions. Selling withNo Reserveto the highest bidder.

Border Crossings

All of our vehicles are sourced from Canada. We then store them just north of the border until they are sold. Once sold we take the vehicles across the border to ourpremises in North Dakota for you to collect, or for your preferred shipper to collect for you.

Should you wish to have your new (old) vehicle shipped, then let us know and we can put you in contact with our preferred shippers. Theseshippers are familiar with us, our inventory and our location. They are also very reasonably priced.

If you decide to use an alternative shipper, please make them aware if the vehicle is a 'non-runner' and, therefore, will require a winch for loading and unloading. We are not responsible if you book a shipper who is incapable of loading the vehicle.

Due to the nature of what we do, we are often on the road in search of new vehicles, so please be sure to make us aware of your shipping/collection arrangements ahead of time, so that we can arrange to be there to meet you or your shipper.

who we are and what we do

We are two brothersthat seek out original trucks and cars fromall acrossCanada specializing in vehicles from the 40s, 50s and 60s.

We started heading North to source these vehicles several years ago due to the severe lack of such vehicles in the US in recent times due to our huge car culture. Most American barn finds have long been found and tampered with by several owners yet North of the border there still seems to be an abundance of good solid original vehicles waiting to be brought back to life.

We make these great vehicles available to the US market by importing them into the US and providing all required paperwork to acquire a Clear US Title in your own name in your home State.

We also specialize insourcing Mercuryand Fargo trucks and have successfully imported and found new homes for dozens of fine original examples.

We are passionate about finding the best thatthere is and understand that our customers want to see automobiles that have not been tampered with; the more original, the better.

Our inventory is regularly updated, as new finds are unearthed. If there is something specific that you are looking for, then let us know and we'd be happy to see if we can help.

The business we conduct is straightforward and honest. Whether you're looking for something that'sall original, a starting point for a restoration project orsolid bones for a custom build, Bison Brothers will deliver.
