1949 Ford
Dov Kredo's 1949 Ford
Well, around here, this is a truck (what you call a truck is a pickup or a tender here). It is a 1949 F-8 that needs a lot of work, but will make a very nice item in my future fantazy - an Israeli Transportation Museum (there isn't one yet).
There are two other truck in my collection - a 1950 Mac EH Tipper, very short wheel base, with a Volvo Diesel engine, and a 1959 Volvo Viking with locally built cab. The last one was bought from it's original owner 6 years ago in perfect running conditon!
One must be aware that Israel is a very modern country, most of the trucks running around are modern, with the aging ones disappearing quickly - either scraped or exported to third world countries. Thus, all my trucks are very rare here. The porblem is that nobody really cares if nothing is left. Lucky for me, I have a friend living in a village, and he lets me park my trucks in his back yard.
As you might guess, I love trucks of all kinds, especially the classic ones. I am not looking for parts yet, but I would be happy to get in touch with people like me from all over the world.
