However, this is filmed in Canada this is our first (I’m sure I’ll dig up more) F-47 Panel. I recently discovered threads on Ford truck forums mentioning M-47/F-47 which led me to investigate. Ford of Canada used the the first two digits of the trucks GVW. So 1/2 ton models were F/M-47 as Ford sold Mercury as well there. Technically this could be an M-47 too but those are extremely rare.
