This beautiful Burgundy 1956 Ford F100 Pick up is for sale in our Louisville KY showroom. The F series pickup was introduced in 1947 as the first truck created by Ford after the war. It would also be the first truck that was based on a dedicated truck chassis. All of this is irrelevant on this beauty given the many custom changes that have been done. Start with the exterior the custom burgundy metallic is naturally a color not available on the 55 Fords but really sets off the body lines of this classic. Under the tilt hood is a 302 Ford V8 the heart pumping. It’s refreshing to see, as many of these old Ford’s get Chevy transplants. Mated to the 302 is C-4 automatic transmission, so that the drivetrain stays all Ford. For added safety and better aesthetics, the fuel tank/filler have been relocated to under the bed. An aluminum cover in the rear center of bed looks great and makes it easy to access for fill ups. The floor of the bed is a combination of finished wood planks and chrome metal strips. The Classic Cragar wheels finish off the look and stance of this beauty. The front suspension is a Mustang II style with power steering and power brakes. These upgrades improve the handling and stopping ability of this gorgeous truck. Inside, the cab has been modernized with a set of leather bucket seats, Chrome Tilt Steering Wheel, a floor mounted Lokar Shifter, Lokar Pedals, Omega Custom Instruments gauges and Vintage Air HVAC Controls. Options on this 1956 Ford F100 pick up include; AC, AM/FM Radio with CD player, Power Steering, Power Brakes, Tilt Wheel, Leather Bucket seats, Seat Belts, and Chrome Cragar Wheels wrapped in Radial Tires.
