Did Ford build a sedan delivery between the war and 52? Saw a picture of a 48 sedan delivery with Marmon Herrington conversion. I had never thought about it before. Everything I try to look up keeps coming up as the Panel delivery trucks.

The Marmon Herrington conversion was 4WD.

FORD had to have had a panel delivery (same base as pickup).

Quote:

The 1/2-ton and Tonner series included finished pickup, panel, stake, and platform models, as well as chassis/cowl, chassis/windshield, and chassis/cab jobs adaptable to aftermarket conversions.

Yes they did, I have a 1946 sedan delivery which was a low production number. Less than 2000 made that year & more in 47 & 48. I do see a few at shows & runs but not too many.

Thanks, they are some good looking vehicles.

Ford did not build a sedan delivery in '49-'51 but resumed building them in '52. Last full size sedan delivery was a '58 and they were rare. In '60='63, they made a few sedan deliveries in the Falcon line.
