Vehicle Description
The word "Custom" on this 1973 Ford F-100 was initially just a trim
line. But as you can see from the gleaming modern paint, shimmering
grille, leather interior, 450+ hp V8, and a whole host of other
features...this is a true custom pickup in every sense of the
word.
The Peal White on this is a very cool application. When the
sunlight releases the metallic tones buried deep in the clearcoat
finish, it has a sparkle that rivals the brightwork. That's why
this truck doesn't need any side trim. Just clean straight lines
and shaved door handles to create an uninterrupted profile. But on
a great classic American like this you always have to have some
brightwork. It's reserved for the front where the grille, bumper
and F-O-R-D lettering looks like a mirror leading the way. In the
rear the bumper is just as shiny, and the tailgate trim gives a
hint at the pickup's zoom-zoom nature. And of course, we didn't
forget about the large shimmering Ultra Motorsports wheels that are
also staggered 20 and 22-inches front/rear for an aggressive
stance. There's too much to go over the full list of what's gone
into this F-100 Custom (call for all the details.) But you can see
the level of intricacy in places like the clear turn signals up
front, the blue dot taillights, and how there's even a tough
spray-in bedliner under the retractable cover, in case you still
want to use it for a hardware store run.
The moment you pop the door openers, you discover an interior
that's far more comfortable than anything that came out of the
1970s. The custom black leather bucket seats have modern bolstering
for all-day comfort. And when you fold down the center jump seat,
you get a cup holder center console with the comfort worthy of a
road trip. Trucks like this were made for the driver, so everything
is within easy reach, including the heat/defrost controls and the
upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo. But the moment you grab the Grant GT
three-spoke steering wheel and stare at the full Dakota Digital
gauge package (w/shift light), you know this truck was made for
driving fun. But just in case you didn't figure that out already,
there's a Hurst shifter on the floor.
With a truck that's already show-worth on the inside and out, you
better believe that it's finished off with something special in the
engine bay. And once you look beyond the shine of the air grabber,
master cylinder, valve covers, and other components, you'll see the
substance of a performance-built 390 cubic-inch V8. It has been
enhanced with go-fast goodies like an Edelbrock cam, PRC rockers,
Hi-Tech pushrods, Edelbrock RPM heads, Edelbrock Performer FE
intake, Holley 750 Ultra Double Pumper four-barrel carburetor, and
Hedman Elite HD headers. The full package is rated at around 450
horsepower, and everyone knows it thanks to the fierce growl out of
the Flowmaster dual exhaust. Best of all there's only 2,500 miles
on this motor and the four-speed top loaded transmission that gives
you complete control over the monster V8. All this power gets to
the road via an Eaton Ford 9-inch limited-slip rear end running
3.90 gears for good take-offs. This truck feels great on the road
thanks to Ford's sturdy and versatile twin I-beam front suspension
that has been given new bushings. Plus, the power steering, front
disc brakes, and modern performance tires make this Custom an easy
every day choice.
This Ford F-100 truly lives up to its Custom name. And when it's
one-of-a-kind, with quality like this, it means you only get one
chance at taking it home. Call today!!
