Ford Umpikorinen (BB) – Finnish registration collective page for Ford trucks with an enclosed box body: four- to eight-cylinders, 2,198 to 7,300 cc, 66 to 261 kW, gross weight up to 8,500 kg
This page is not a distinct Ford range but a Finnish registration collective page: Umpikorinen denotes in the Finnish vehicle register the body type of a truck with an enclosed box body, and BB is the official short code for it. Gathered here are Ford trucks of various model years and ranges with this body type, from light box vans to heavier distribution trucks. The model names in the register mostly give only the engine displacement in cubic centimetres, without the actual Ford type designation.

The register lists here 24 versions with 66 to 261 kW from four- to eight-cylinders of 2,198 to 7,300 cc, unladen weights from 2,150 to 5,750 kg, gross vehicle weights from 3,550 to 8,500 kg, lengths from 5,330 to 6,700 mm and widths from 1,950 to 2,400 mm.
As enclosed box bodies these Ford trucks mainly served distribution and trade work where loads need weather-protected transport; the wide span of displacement and weight shows that light van chassis and medium-weight distribution trucks are gathered here alike.
Buying a used Ford of this body type, what matters is the condition of the load floor and box body, weatherproofing against moisture, and depending on the model year, corrosion on the frame and door sills. Parts are supplied by Ford dealers in Finland, supplemented for older years by independent commercial workshops.
