For Sale: 1953 Ford F100 in Grapevine, Texas

Gateway Classic Cars of Dallas is proud to offer this stunning, fully restored 1953 Ford F100 Short Bed. This year marked the 50th Anniversary of Ford, and there is no better way to celebrate that heritage than with a pickup that looks like it just rolled off the assembly line-only better.

Iconic Design & Fresh Aesthetics
Dressed in a vibrant, period-correct Light Blue paint with a contrasting White grille, this F100 captures the optimism of the 1950s. The restoration has been meticulous, featuring gleaming chrome bumpers and the iconic "50th Anniversary" steering wheel emblem. It sits perfectly on color-matched wheels with polished hubcaps and classic whitewall tires, giving it that unmistakable "Main Street USA" stance.

Period-Correct Power with Modern Reliability
Under the hood, you'll find the heart of this workhorse: the "Cost Clipper" 215 CI Inline 6-cylinder engine. This powerplant is known for its smooth delivery and reliability. While it retains its vintage soul, it has been updated for modern driving needs with a 12V alternator system, ensuring quicker starts and better electrical performance. Power is shifted through a classic 3-speed manual "three-on-the-tree" transmission, providing a truly authentic vintage driving experience.

A Cabin That Keeps You Cool
Inside, the restoration continues with a beautiful Brown Vinyl interior that perfectly complements the blue exterior. While the look is 1953, the comfort is 21st century. This F100 has been upgraded with Vintage Air Conditioning, allowing you to enjoy summer cruises and car shows in total comfort. With only 572 miles driven since the completion of the build, every surface feels fresh and new.
