1953 Ford F-100

Description

The great thing about a vintage truck is that it has all the right features for both flash and substance. This 1953 Ford F-100 is a great example with bright paint, a luxury A/C interior, overdrive transmission, four-wheel disc brakes, a Corvette V8, and more.

The light blue paint is a great shade to represent the pop art of the '50s, and the modern clearcoat application really pops in the sunshine. It accents the rounded fender design that makes this generation F-100 both sporty and vintage all in the same glance. This one goes for a modern feeling by shaving the trim, integrating a third brake light, and using new Ford badging to lead the way. But it also doesn't lose that vintage feeling thanks to classic details like the bright chrome bumper, vintage step plates, and polished smoothie wheels. And of course, the glossy real wood in the truck bed makes this look awesome. And as you're looking around this Ford, the proper Class III trailer hitch with electric plug means this one is still up for real truck duty.

Inside, the blue returns on the dash and door top, and now it's joined by a tasteful gray that helps integrate a ton of worthwhile modern features. It starts with the seating. You can sit three across when you want, but when it's time for individual comfort, the middle folds down to give you two buckets and a cup holder armrest. There are plenty of comfort upgrades, like power windows, an AM/FM/CD stereo, and cold-blowing R134a air conditioning. Plus, they even added a backup camera to give this vintage pickup true modern usability. The black and chrome steering wheel feels good in your hands, and it's mounted on a tilt column. Beyond that is a full set of Dolphin gauges and a large AutoMeter tach.

The hood tilts forward so that everyone can get a good view of this Corvette V8 in this pickup. The 350 cubic-inch motor has go-fast goodies like an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and headers feeding the sweet-sounding dual exhaust. It's a strong runner that gives you confidence on the road. In fact, this was built for longer hauls thanks to upgrades like cruise control and the 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission w/highway-friendly overdrive. You even have the superior stopping power of four-wheel power disc brakes.

Complete with build receipts going back to the 2017 restoration, this is a well-built vintage F-100 with upgrades you rarely see elsewhere. So don't let this pickup slip away, call today!
