The Model: In 1953 the Ford’s popular first generation pickup, the F1 gave way to a new sleeker, more integrated, design as part of Ford’s 50th anniversary celebrations. The new F 100’s streamlined shape became an instant classic and remains a popular choice for builders and collectors alike due to its cutting edge curvaceous body shape. Changes for the F-Series’ second generation included a longer wheelbase and larger rear leaf springs to improve ride quality without sacrificing load capacity. Everything about the redesign added to the new truck’s overall appeal from the new consolidated instrument panel to the wider glass and seats. Today the ’53’56 F100s are highly coveted by street rod enthusiasts.
The Car: This 1954 F100 is the result of a beautiful fresh custom build. The straight-six has given way to a fresh 350 cid V8 pushing 260 bhp through an overdrive automatic transmission. Access to the big V8 is enhanced by a No Limit hood flip kit. The lowered suspension centers around Ride Pro air suspension and Fat Daddy front suspension systems. Power disk brakes, a GM tilt steering column and a Lecarra Mk10 steering wheel keep it all under control. Electronics are fully modernized with VDO gauges, power windows and a Custom Autosound stereo system. Passenger comfort is improved through the integration of a Vintage Air A/C system. Vintage trucks are hot! Don’t miss this chance at one of today’s most iconic restomod trucks.
