This 1953 Ford F100 Pick Up is one of the finest in the country. It was originally built in the early 80s and at that time was strictly a professional show truck. All of the work done on this truck has been professionally done with the utmost attention being paid to details. There are so many custom features, that I am confident we will overlook some in our description. The paint and body is absolutely some of the best ever seen. The black paint shines like new and you can see deep into it like a mirror. The chrome is in excellent condition in all aspects. And there is a ton of it. The tailgate is fully chromed with the outside face being painted black in select areas to give a great effect. The full tilt front end is in perfect condition and is hydraulically operated from within the passenger compartment. The bed of the truck has beautifully stained wood with stainless hardware that is also in perfect condition. There is a sunroof that you would swear was done at the factory. There is some of the nicest pinstripe work tastefully done all over them truck including the frame rails with are painted black as slick as the body, the firewall and even the door jambs. The running boards are fully chromed and in excellent condition. Other then the tilt front end, the body is completely original steel. The drive train and suspension are also a th9ing of beauty again with that same attention to details. The engine is a strong running 302 V8 with chrome valve covers and a billet air cleaner. It is backed up by a Ford C4 transmission that shifts smooth but firmly. The rear end and suspension are fully chromed out of a Corvette with a custom cover. Even the driveshaft is chromed. The front suspension is original straight axle with leaf springs and again is fully chromed. The detail is amazing. The interior is a leather and velour burgundy with the seats out of a Cadillac. The drivers side has power adjustments. The dash is painted to match the exterior paint including the pin striping. It is 100% unmolested and in perfect condition. Better then new. The AC is a under dash unit that will freeze you out even on a 100 degree day. The glass is all in perfect condition. The 2 vent window have some very tasteful engraved scrollwork and the rear window is engraved with "The Family Tradition" which was Ford's marketing slogan back in the 50s. The steering wheel is a custom 4 spoke with a chrome column. The transmission is engaged using a floor "Quick Silver Shifter. I know you have heard it before, but this is honestly got to be one of the nicest 53 F100s in the country. It is a beautiful truck and would be a great addition to any serious collection. It could not be duplicated today for less then $60,000 plus. Serious offers or trades will be considered.
