This 1953 Ford F100 Custom Truck is a true blend of classic style
and modern performance. Featuring a steel body with fiberglass rear
fenders for extra width, it's powered by a potent 351 Windsor
engine boasting around 540HP with a compression ratio of 10.5:1.
The engine setup includes a roller motor for smooth operation.
To ensure reliable ignition, it's equipped with an MSD ignition
system and distributor. Cooling is handled by a new radiator
sourced from a mid-fifty Ford, along with a transmission cooler and
a thermostat-controlled electric fan to maintain optimal
temperatures.
The powertrain is matched with a C6 automatic transmission
featuring a 3000 stall shift kit and a Hurst shifter for precise
gear changes. Traction is enhanced by a narrowed Ford 9" rear end
with Moser axles and a 3.73 Posi setup.
For improved handling and braking, it's been upgraded with a
Mustang 2 front suspension with disc brakes and power-assisted rack
and pinion steering, complemented by a No Limit Engineering
pro-street leaf spring kit at the rear.
Inside, modern amenities abound, including a GM steering column,
YDO gauges, and a Foscate AM/FM radio with a 6-disc changer. The
audio system is enhanced with four Fusion 6.5" speakers and two
Fusion 10" subs, powered by a Fusion 5-channel amp.
Creature comforts include power windows, power vent, and leather
seats sourced from a first-gen Dodge Durango, providing both style
and comfort.
Externally, it features a Pace Edwards roll-up hard tonneau cover,
wing wheelie bars for added stability, and a changeable neon lights
kit for a customizable aesthetic. A power retractable antenna adds
convenience, while Centerline Warrior wheels wrapped in Mickey
Thompson tires provide both style and performance.
The fuel system is robust, featuring an Aeromotive electric fuel
pump and regulator, along with a 30-gallon fuel cell for extended
range. The oak bed adds a touch of classic charm, while the custom
stainless steel grille and 3rd brake light enhance both style and
safety.
Completing the package is a 3" exhaust system with Flowmaster
2-chamber mufflers and an "H" pipe for that signature rumble and
improved exhaust flow. Overall, this 1953 Ford F100 Custom Truck is
a meticulously crafted blend of classic aesthetics and modern
performance upgrades, sure to turn heads wherever it goes.
