Vehicle Description
This 1951 Ford F-1 is a unique build. It has a cool classic style
inside and out. But as you dig a little deeper, it has the right
upgrades for a better cruiser, including an updated motor, new
tires, and cold-blowing A/C. And so this is one for those who love
a true old-school driver.
Red is a color that always looks good on classic machines. There's
a good gloss in the sunshine, but the overall finish will never
make you nervous about taking it out for a drive. And that's the
overall theme of a cool cruiser. There's a quality here that comes
from the fundamentals, like straight body panels and doors that
shut solid. And the brightwork on the bumpers, trim, and distinct
grille follow the truck's theme of an authentic feel while still
having a shine that will get you noticed. You'll see all the best
classic details, like the step plates on the running boards and
real wood in the truck bed. And we like how this still keeps the
two-piece wheel trim, but it's now an updated package that lets you
fit better cruising tires - and a new set was just freshly
added!
The interior is an intertwined two-tone red and white that
continues the feeling of a vintage machine. The side panels, door
handles, headliner, and upholstery have a clean and period-correct
feel. The wide bench seat, large three-spoke steering wheel, and
airy cab are pure old-school fun. But the Dolphin gauge package and
cold-blowing air-conditioning remind you this is more than just a
time capsule.
Under the hood is a unique kind of upgrade. If someone reaches for
a few decades younger motor, it usually means a small block V8, but
the update here is a bit more thoughtful. This appears to be a 240
cubic-inch OHV inline-six. That's from the line of legendary robust
Ford inline motors. So you have an updated powerhouse utilizing one
of the best truck engines. And it also has the right upgrades like
the 12-volt system and an alternator. Even with the updated motor,
you still feel nostalgic going down the road thanks to the
column-shifted three-speed manual transmission.
This is the first-gen Ford F-Series that respects its history while
also being a strong cruiser for today. So it's stylish and fun
without being too flashy. That makes for the kind of unique classic
that you know deserves to be in your garage. Call today!!!
