This 1952 Ford F100 is a nicely built mild custom that is ready to hit the road and take you on cruises, to shows, or maybe just down to the store. The pickup received a complete restoration including a swank custom interior, brilliant blue paint, custom wheels and an updated, modern suspension.
The color of the paint on this Ford is quite the eye catcher – even more so than most bright "resale red" trucks. It has a fine metallic flake that really draws your attention and it has been hand finished to a sparkling sheen. The bed is a blond finished classic wood set up with nice stainless hardware and a smoothed bed door. Speaking of smoothed, the firewall is slick and smooth and features a custom indent that allows room for the distributor.
The interior of the truck features custom carpeting, door panels, headliner and seat covering. It has a very cool traditional hot rod look and works great with the bright blue paint and overall styling of the truck. Gone are the original gauges and in their place, a nice new set of accurate AutoMeter gauges reside. The truck has a Flaming River tilt column, and the best creature comfort of all, Vintage Air Conditioning. There is nothing better than cruising with the A/C on, and not a lot worse than cruising with no A/C at all…
Powering the truck is a 350 with electronic ignition, and an Edelbrock Performer intake, Edelbrock carburetor with automatic chock. The exhaust flows back through black coated headers and a custom exhaust system. There is a custom stainless gas tank relocated to the rear of the truck and a polished aluminum gas cap in the bed. Providing flexible cruising speeds whether on the side streets, or the highway is a 700R4 overdrive transmission. The truck has great pick up through the gears and best of all, an overdrive gear for higher speed cruising… sweetness.
The Ford rides on adjustable coil overs all the way around and has a custom power rack and pinion front-end from Heidts. She has discs up front, drums at the rear and great stopping manners. She’s a great driving F100 that you can take anywhere you please with confidence.
Chevy 3100 are aplenty, but these F100s are a little harder to find. Don’t miss the opportunity to own this great drivable show truck.
