History
Although the styling of Fords 1941 cars was updated, the larger trucks remained basically unchanged from the previous year. While the Commercial Car line and 1⁄2-ton pickups mimicked the Standard Series passenger cars, the conventional heavy-duty models retained the previous year’s design, including freestanding headlights. This group included a growing number of 1 1⁄2-ton military Stake trucks being ordered by the U.S. government in advance of World War II.
These workhorse vehicles were available in seven
different wheelbases rated at 3⁄4, 1 or 1 1⁄2-tons. They could be ordered as bare chassis or with one of five different standard body types including a cab-over- engine (COE) closed cab model. The subject car is a 1941 Ford Model 11Y Commercial Pickup truck on a 122-inch wheelbase Express chassis rated at 1-ton. It is powered by a 90 horsepower V-8 engine. This example was owned for most of its life by the Sheets family of Minnesota who used it as a delivery truck for their Mobiloil products business. The Mobiloil Company had evolved out of the Socony Vacuum Oil Company in New York, hence that name appears on the doors below the familiar Mobil Pegasus emblem. The truck remains in largely unrestored condition The Fuel system has been completely redone, tank has been dropped and cleaned, new lines, and carburetor rebuilt. New starter, steel floor, headliner and exhaust installed last year. Starts right up, runs great, brakes work well. All fluids have been drained and replaced.
