I believe the Ford C series was built from 1957 to 1992.



Here is one of my favorite Ford C's from the past few years, which also features a 54' Squrt, which was introduced by Snorkel in 1968.

You can't leave Chicago out of a thread on the Ford C chassis as they had dozens of them with bodies by several different builders, E-1 by far building the most. Here's Engine 8 with an E-1 body.
