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. ***Call us today at 630-443-4582
