1953 Ford F-100 Description

The 1953 Ford F-100 is one of the best trucks around to turn into a hot rod. As you take a closer look at this one, its slick paint, custom touches, A/C interior, overdrive transmission and powerful V8 lets you know this is the cream of the crop.The gloss on this burgundy is what instantly indicates to everyone that you're driving something special. It gives this vintage Ford a very modern twist, and it only helps that there was an investment in super straight sheetmetal so that this whole design can flow seamlessly from panel to panel. Great metal is perfect for a truck like this, because '53 was the first year for the 2nd generation F-Series. The new design centered around a theme that has been rounded off everywhere for a very sporty appearance that still has vintage charm. And the world of modern and classic seem to merge perfectly all over this pickup from the mirror-like grille, to the iconic Cragar SS wheels, to the real wood truck bed.The super-slick appearance also means shaved door handles. So you'll love popping the remote openers under the bedrail to reveal the full custom interior. We really like how this classic Ford borrows touches from the company history for some of the comfort upgrades like the bucket seats and steering wheel. Plus, the cup holder center console and AM/FM/CD stereo offer plenty of modern convenience. You even have ice-cold air conditioning to make sure that you always look cool while driving this cool vintage pickup. But the best treats in this custom are just for the driver. The full Dolphin gauge panel, Lokar shifter, and large column-mounted AutoMeter tach are all clear indicators that there is something special under the hood.The engine bay shows nice investments in power and poise. It starts with a 351 cubic-inch Windsor V8 that was rebuilt less than 7,000 miles ago, and it now includes upgrades such as an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake. It gives this pickup the horsepower and rumble that perfectly matches its slick personality. Plus, this one has all the right reliability you'll love considering the 9-inch rear has been rebuilt recently. The aluminum radiator and separate trans cooler are a great total package. That means this vintage Ford stays cool even in traffic with the A/C running. If it all sounds like a great anytime driving package, then you'll also love that it has a four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly overdrive. Add in power steering, front disc brakes, and the independent front suspension from a Ford sedan, and you can easily drive to car shows many states away without breaking a sweat.Complete with build receipts, this custom build perfectly combines classic looks, modern conveniences, and rumbling V8 power. This fine Ford is turnkey ready to take you on long trips in comfort, haul home awards, or both! Don't wait...call today!!!
