Book Synopsis

This is the story of the most popular pickup truck of all time, the Ford F-150, and its predecessor, the F-100. This book records over forty years in its long life, during which time the Ford pickup has remained true to its origins, a vehicle that, when called upon, can deliver a solid day's work, off road or on, day after day, year after year - each one built 'Ford Tough.' Over the years the Ford pickup has sold in astounding numbers to become part of everyday American life.
Packed with hundreds of mostly colour illustrations, and technical specifications, this book also includes advice on restoring the first F-1 pickup of 1948 and the original F-100 of 1953.
