This 1964 Ford F100 is one cool truck! From the gorgeous paint and smoothed bodywork to the strong-running 351 under the hoodand#44; its a fresh take on an old favorite. Someone has invested a ton of time and money to make this one-of-a-kind pickup truly stand outand#44; and youll really have to see it in person to get a full dose of its awesomeness. First offand#44; the two-tone silver-over-red paint job looks fantastic on the upright Fords sheetmetal. There are a few neat body details that are enhanced by the modern paint treatmentand#44; and the relief line running the perimeter of the body is a natural color break. The paint also emphasizes the wonderfully ornate front fendersand#44; which flow neatly into the grille up frontand#44; which has also been painted to match. You were probably so busy looking at that gorgeous two-stage urethane paint that you didnt notice that the emblems have been painted silver to match the upper bodyand#44; a neat detail that makes even knowledgeable folks do a double-take. The bed itself is finished with spray-in bedliner material that looks completely unmarked but is tough enough to still be used as a pickup should. The few pieces of bright trim that do remainand#44; including both bumpersand#44; are in excellent condition and add just the right amount of jewelry. The interior is classically simpleand#44; with black cloth and vinyl upholstery on the original bench seatand#44; simple door panelsand#44; and a color-matched dashboard insert. The factory instrument panel is flashy enough to look custom all by itselfand#44; with the original speedometer in its center and aftermarket gauges in the outboard positions. A fat 3-spoke steering wheel somehow looks exactly right in this 60s hauler and the A/C unit hanging under the dash is a period-correct piece thats remarkably effective. A decent AM/FM/CD stereo system sounds quite good thanks to plenty of sound-deadening materials and plush carpets on the floor. It shows minimal use and the subtle design and tasteful materials wont go out of fashion like so many over-done customs you see. The engine is a Ford 351 cubic inch small block V8and#44; which is a nice upgrade over the trucks original 292 cubic inch unit with a 2-barrel carburetor. With an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold and a matching 4-barrel carband#44; this one really wakes up and gives this vintage pickup the moves of a muscle car. Its not necessarily detailed for showand#44; but its functionaland#44; torqueyand#44; and the important stuff is rightand#44; because it starts easily and idles without getting cranky. The engine bay is quite clean and theres no evidence that this was ever a rusty truckand#44; and service access is still good. Dual exhaust with long-tube headers and throaty mufflers gives it the right toneand#44; and the 3-speed automatic transmission and 9-inch rear dont mind working once in a while. Theres power steering up front and front disc brakes to help in the stopping departmentand#44; and it sits exactly right on those polished Torque Thrust wheels with 255/50/17 Kumho radials all around. This is a nicely done pickup thats unusual enough to get second glances and so beautifully built that everyone who looks will stick around to see all the details. Call today! |
