Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa presents this cool 1959 Ford Panel
Truck. late 50s Ford Panel vans are becoming very popular these
days! These big panel delivery vans are an uncommon sight now days.
This one runs drives and operates better than new. But the body is
well aged with a sympathetic patina motif. A unique feature of this
burly workhorse is the chassis and powerplant. It no longer has the
venerable Ford designed V8 and frame. You'll find after a quick
drive that this 1959 Panel truck drives remarkably like a new car!
In fact, under the skin is the entire drivetrain and chassis of a
2007 Toyota Tundra! All of the mechanicals from the Tundra was
slipped under the body of the Panel Van including the dash. Modern
conveniences such as the AC and AM/FM radio and heater all work as
designed and enhance the experience of riding in a 65-year-old
Truck with the ride, handling, and comfort of a 2000s era car. To
add to the unique experience the truck sits on 17" steel wheels
with whit walled tires and custom beauty rings. It gives the truck
a cool retro-patina flavor. The 4.7l Toyota V8 exhaust through
custom side pipes that allow for quite a bark. This truck sounds
awesome. Inside there's plenty of room for work or friends. With
custom buckets up front and an open, carpeted bay in the rear. The
cargo area is accessed via dual barn doors I the rear. Overall,
this is a great throwback, with the convenience of modern comfort
and performance, plus Toyota reliability! Add this Awesome 1959
F-100 Panel truck to your collection. A great truck for fun or
work!
