About this title

From the Back Cover:

For over 80 years, America's favorite pickup truck has worn a blue oval. Henry Ford's first pickups were the Model TTs , a basic conversion kit that transformed the Model T roadster into a hauling machine. After World War II, the dedicated F-series truck line, equipped with heavy-duty V-8 engines, established Ford as the truck leader of the auto industry. The Ranchero, Ranger, Bronco, SVT performance series, and more followed. Today's Ford trucks still make any job easier while cosseting the driver in comfort unimagined in Henry's day. Author and photographer Mike Mueller covers decades of truck history in Ford Pickup Trucks. Color photos of gorgeous originals and restored classics include details of the engine, interior, and more. For Ford truck fans young and old, Ford Pickup Trucks is the fantastic story of an American original.
