1956 Ford F-100

Description

This is a good looking, nice driving vintage truck that would be very much at home running errands around town, or polished up and showing off at a local show. Either way, it's bound to attract some attention. Check it out.

Big bold curves around the fenders and cab defines the look of these F100s. The Deep Red paint looks rich and solid shining off the tall and rounded cab with that big curved windshield. Awesome. The hood makes a big strong curve down toward the chrome grill and the fenders meet it in a crisp clean line at the leading edge. LED headlights flanking the grill are a nice touch and a simple chrome bumper underlines everything nicely. Out back you will find another sharp looking bumper with a couple chrome exhaust tips peeking out from under it and a simple tailgate over it. That gate drops down to reveal a beautifully refinished and trimmed out wooden bed. The truck has just the right amount of rake to the chassis and hunkers down low over those big and bold Eagle alloy wheels tucked up under those fenders.

Open the door and you will find a simple interior but with a really nice seat upgrade. The door panel is simple in Black with a chrome handle, door pull and window crank along with a bead of chrome across the bottom. A deep dish, three spoke steering wheel is mounted on a tilt column with billet control stalks. Nestled under a painted dash is an arching chrome speedometer with small fuel level, water temp, and oil pressure gauges across the bottom. An auxiliary set of gauges under the dash keeps easy to read and accurate tabs on the critical engine functions, and a molded chrome grip for the automatic transmission is mounted in the floor. There is an FM/Cassette deck mounted in the glove box for your listening pleasure and those seats are leather trimmed captain's chairs with fold down armrests on both sides! Nice.

Pop the hood and you will find a healthy 302 cubic inch motor setting down in a neat and clean engine bay. There is a brushed aluminum air topper sitting on an Edelbrock 4-barell carburetor and intake manifold. The motor is painted in the appropriate Ford Blue and that set of brush lettered Edelbrock valve covers certainly does look good in it. A red cap and blue wires get the spark to the plugs and a set of headers gets the spent gasses out to free flow mufflers. Power flows back through a 3-speed automatic to a 10-bolt rear end on leaf springs. Up front control arms and coil springs along with a beefy front sway bar keep this truck cornering flat and handling well. Front disc brakes provide great stopping power and those awesome wheels are wrapped with 225/6018s in the front and 235/45/20s in the rear.

Good looking, nice driving. Come on down and check it out. It might be just the truck you are looking for.
