Ford

The third vehicle that Henry Ford built was a truck in 1900.  And so began a legacy.  1917 saw the production of the Model T One Ton truck chassis.  This was Ford's first chassis that was built specifically for trucks.  The first factory assembled pickup truck made its appearance in 1925 sporting a price tag of $281.  With an adjustable tailgate, heavy duty rear springs and a cargo box, it set the stage for trucks to come.  The F-series appeared in 1948 and was Ford's first post war line of vehicles.  The F-250, introduced in 1959, one of the earliest four wheel drive trucks.  If you are looking for Old Ford Trucks for sale, these are some sweet models to seek out.

Chevy

The name Chevrolet has become synonymous with trucks.  The first Chevy truck rolled off the production line in 1918, the same year that Chevrolet Motor Company became a part of General Motors.  The 490 Light Delivery was Chevrolet's first truck.  Much of its components were identical to the cars, including the instrument panel, foot pedals and steering wheel.  In 1937, however, Chevy's pickup truck era took off.  One of Chevy's most famous trucks, though, was the Model 3124 Cameo Carrier in 1955.  This was the look that defined many trucks of that day and even today, this is the model that is most identified with when people think of antique trucks and shop for classic trucks for sale.

International Harvester Scout

While International Harvester is usually better know for their Scouts, IH did produce trucks from 1907 to 1975.  Their "light" line of vehicles gave us such classics as the A-series pickup and the International Harvester wagon.  Among antique trucks for sale, those produced by International Harvester are highly sought after because they are not a well known and the market is not saturated with them as it is with Ford and Chevrolet.

Willys

Best know for its Jeeps, Willys is a name that is familiar to collectors of antique trucks the world over. Although the Jeeps did, and still often do, overshadow the Willys trucks, they are still highly sought after by many collectors.  The FC170 was rather unusual in its cab styling while the 1957 Willys pickup had a fairly conventional cab style but still had a distinctive air.  The catch, though, is finding a Willys jeep  for sale.  There just aren't that many around and the people who do have them usually aren't very quick to turn loose of them.
