Vehicle Description
This 1953 Ford F-100 Restomod is an awesome kind of custom pickup
that takes the classic commanding appearance, and puts some serious
modern muscle behind it. So you get to enjoy a fuel-injected LT1 V8
upgrade, six-speed stick, upgraded suspension, four-wheel discs,
and much more from the comfort of an A/C interior.
This classic pickup wants everyone to remember exactly who you are.
The deep blue paint is almost as dark as black, but when the
sunlight hits it, there's a richness of color. It goes for a truly
modern look with the painted grille, front bumper delete, and
custom rear roll pan that goes well with the flat tailgate. They
removed bright work everywhere from the headlight bezels to the
badging for a smoother look. Even the door handles were expertly
eliminated. In fact, the largest piece of bright work you're going
to find on the body is now the truck bed! The other piece of
polished shine you're going to notice are those 15-inch Centerline
racing wheels. Of course, the reason why they really command your
attention is because of the extra wide rear rubber and aggressively
lowered stance that hint at the performance upgrades beneath the
sheetmetal.
It's always an attention-getter when you pop the remote door
openers, and there's plenty more to impress when you get inside.
This has some nice comfort features, like cold-blowing R134a air
conditioning, custom door panels with power windows, and an
AM/FM/CD stereo w/aux input mounted in an overhead console. This is
setup to be a far more driver-focused machine than how Ford built
it in '53. After all, they never had high-back racing bucket seats,
a Hurst floor shifter, or a full Dakota Digital readout panel that
has a cool blue glow to coordinate with this truck's color
theme.
The whole front end tilts forward like a Corvette, and that's for a
very good reason. After all, people are going to marvel at the
Corvette-based LT1 V8 upgrade. This fuel-injected powerhouse
inhales deeply with a cold air induction, and it exhales thought
shorty headers on their way to the sweet-sounding side exhaust.
It's an awesome powerplant upgrade, and you get to control it to
the fullest with a Tremec T56 six-speed manual transmission. This
feeds a strong narrowed Ford 9-inch rear, and Mickey Thompson
Sportsman tires are there to keep plenty of rubber on the road. As
you look at all of this in the undercarriage photos, you'll also
spot a Mustang II-style independent front end, four-link rear, and
adjustable coilovers all-around. Add in power steering and
four-wheel power disc brakes, and this is the powerful restomod
that also provide proper control.
This custom build combines classic looks, modern conveniences, and
high horsepower. So if you want all eyes on you this weekend, you
need to call today!
