1954 Ford F-100
The first restyling of Ford's popular F-series truck included an
expanded cab, stylish new grille, and longer hood that flowed into
the front fenders. Changes from the first F-series Pickup to the
second generation went beyond a face lift. Ford expanded the
truck's wheelbase, with longer front and rear leaf springs fitted
to improve ride quality while still maintaining hauling ability.
The front suspension was set back to allow a tighter turning
radius. A new cargo bed, measuring 6 1/2 feet by 20 inches, would
be used all the way up into the eighties.
OHV V-8 239ci. The Y-Block displaced the same 239 cubic-inches as
the flathead by way of its 3.50" bore by 3.10" stroke. Power output
was 130-horsepower, which was an increase of 15% over the
flathead's 106-horsepower (before 1953). 3-speed Manual
transmission column shifter. 10 bolt Ford rear end.
