1997 Ford F-150 New Model Training Reference Book - Dealer Cover Scan

This image shows the front cover of a Ford dealership/technician publication titled the '1997 New Model Training Reference Book' for the Ford F-150 pickup truck. The cover features a large black-and-white photograph of the front end of the redesigned 1997 F-150, showing the hood, windshield, grille with mesh insert, and headlamp area. The title 'F-150' appears in large dark blue italic letters at the top of the cover, and the blue vertical band along the right edge reads '1997 NEW MODEL TRAINING REFERENCE BOOK' with the Ford blue oval logo at the bottom. The book is three-hole punched, indicating it was intended to be stored in a dealership training binder. This is a cover-only scan; no interior technical content, specifications, part numbers, or wiring/fuse information is visible in this image. A reader can learn from this scan that Ford produced a dedicated new-model training reference book for the 1997 F-150 (the first year of the tenth-generation redesign), useful for identifying the publication when searching for period dealer training literature.
