1953 marked a golden year for Ford, and this F-100 pickup truck in
Glacier Blue is a rolling celebration of that legacy. With its
iconic good looks and a 239 Flathead V8 under that long hood, this
'53 Ford is ready to work, play, or just cruise in style on its
225/75R15 Nexen tires wrapped around 15" painted steel wheels.
The gray vinyl bench seat with red accents invites you to get
behind the wheel and experience the charm of a bygone era. The
painted blue dash and door panels, along with the rubber floor mat,
keep things simple yet stylish inside. And here's a fun fact:
you're looking at a rare find with that column-shifted Ford-O-Matic
3-speed automatic transmission - 1953 was the first year it was
available in the F-Series.
Mechanically, this truck has been restored to keep that reliable
239 Flathead V8 humming smoothly. It's mated to the Ford-O-Matic
transmission for easy cruising, and the drum brakes at all four
corners provide ample stopping power. The leaf springs and shocks
at both ends ensure a comfortable ride, whether you're hauling a
load in the beautifully refinished wood bed or just enjoying a
Sunday drive.
This '53 Ford pickup, complete with its commemorative 50th
anniversary horn button, represents the end of an era as the last
year for the Flathead V8. But it also marks a new beginning, as one
of the first F-Series trucks to offer the convenience of an
automatic transmission. Don't miss your chance to own this piece of
Blue Oval history. Call today!
