The 1955 Ford F350 Flatbed was a heavy-duty truck model produced by Ford Motor Company in the mid-1950s. It was part of Ford's F-Series lineup, which has been one of the longest-running and most popular truck series in the United States. The 1955 F350 Flatbed was a work-oriented truck, so the features and amenities were relatively basic compared to modern vehicles. It typically had a simple interior with a functional dashboard, bench seating, and a straightforward control layout.
"For consignment, a little history with the first owner of this truck using it to run an orchard, where it was used to pick fruit and run the produce to the market. When the orchard owner passed, it went to their son who carried in the tradition. Eventually he sold it to the second owner who rarely used the truck, and eventually into the hands of our consignor who used the truck for his lawn care business and now is retiring. A beautiful working example from 1955. Maybe the apple of your eye, or could it be in the correct trim to attract your wandering eye!??"

Beautiful Working Example from 1955
Meadow Green bathes super curvaceous but non-dented and straight steel panels which are very much minding their gaps. We are still in the exterior bulbous fender age connected by the running board era, and this truck uses the black painted boards for access to the cab. In front, a big cream grille has a single round headlight on either side and the iconic V8 in the center. A black curved bumper frames the bottom. On the tops of the front quarters are the orange turn signals in black bezels in stalks. A long-stalked mirror, (1953-1956 style), hangs off of either side of the doors and is painted black, which are rare and hard to find. Our consignor notes rare self-cancelling turn signals are in, as is a See Clear windshield washing system. Also, cab topper lighting was put on for that big rig feel. From 2022, a Ford script flat steel boarded bed is also in Meadow Green and rests on a solid original rust-free frame. This hovers above dual rear 16-inch wheels painted in shiny black and like new radial rubber from 2016.
