This F-100 has undergone a complete body off frame custom build. It
has some very impressive performance which is obvious the moment
you fire up the 507 cubic inch engine. It makes a reliable driver
too; the owner has put 10,000 miles on it!
EXTERIOR: They started with an all steel rust free truck. It has a
new steel box, a custom forward tilting hood and fiberglass running
boards. The body work is excellent: straight, no rust or damage.
The fuel filler was relocated. Professionally painted with PPG
Grabber Blue, it has a smooth and glossy finish. Custom
stainless-steel bumpers, stainless hardware used throughout. New
chrome, mirrors, handles and a locking gas cap. The weather strips,
gaskets and fender welts were replaced. It has a 3rd brake light
below the tailgate. New glass and upgraded sliding rear window.
It's rolling on Pro Star wheels: 15x6 in front, 15x12 in the back
with a pair of Hoosier Pro Street tires.
INTERIOR: The inside of the cab is painted smooth and glossy. It is
lined with sound deadener. When you are sitting in the truck you
will be looking at a matched set of Stewart Warner gauges, billet
knobs and handles and a cushion grip wheel on a tilt column.
Rebuilt seat and custom door panels upholstered to match in gray
tweed. Gray headliner kit and matching visors. Upgraded retractable
shoulder belts. Down on the floor is a B&M shifter and chrome
pedals. It has a complete Vintage Air set up inside the cab and
plumbed to the firewall.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: There's a surprise, it has one of the biggest
V8s ever made: a Cadillac 500 cubic inch! It has a performance
build: bored to a 507, custom cut billet cam, silver light pistons,
custom made headers with jet hot coating, a blueprinted HEI
distributor with an Excel ignition, Mallory fuel pump and filter
and an Edelbrock intake with a 750 Edelbrock carb. The valve covers
are one of a kind custom made by the owner. Griffin aluminum
radiator with a custom-made shroud and a stainless overflow tank.
It features power steering and brakes. Clean engine bay is painted
slick.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Inside the box is mint. The metal is straight,
it has tubbed wheel wells and it's painted as slick as the outside.
Custom tailgate latches. Refinished oak floor boards.
UNDERSIDE: The body was off the frame. The original frame has been
boxed and painted gloss black. It has a 72 Camaro front clip with
tubular control arms, 2 inch drop spindles and a sway bar. In back
it has lowering blocks in the leaf springs and custom-made ladder
bars. Disc brakes in front, 11-in drums in back. Relocated
stainless steel gas tank. Great sounding 3 inch exhaust with
Terminator mufflers and it exits each side of the truck under the
running board. Looking up at the motor it has an extra capacity oil
pan. The trans is a Turbo 400 with a deep chrome pan, remote oil
cooler, a shift kit and a Grand National converter. A custom-made
driveshaft connects to a narrowed Ford 9 inch rear with 3.50
Richmond posi gears, Moser axles and big bearings.
SERVICE: It passed inspection with flying colors. The tachometer is
randomly inaccurate.
I have more respect for this truck after my inspection, it is a
quality build that has proven itself! It has 10,000 miles and it's
been done several years yet it performs and looks like new!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment
there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,
your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year
membership.
