Description

1956 FORD F100 RESTO-MOD Frame off restoration! Chamaeleon paint alone was over $8,500.00.Everyone that see this paint job is amazed on how it changes color. Thumbs up every time I take it out.2 Disc brakes in the front and drum brakes in the back,Edelbrock 4 barrel carburetor. New floor totally redone in welded steel with a new battery compartment.Truck runs & drive perfectly. Rebuilt 460engine in 2015 for Mikes Auto Machine Shop in Washingtonville NY he is known for rebuilding race car engines for over 30 years. The 460 engine is one of the best Ford Motor ever made. No oil leaks. The truck was painted with the engine left in the Truck. Since the engine was removed for the rebuilt I found no need to take it out. The Chassis & suspension are original. Chassis was power blasted and repainted, and the front shocks were put on new last year and the back shocks were put on new 6 months ago. The truck was purchased on eBay years ago from a guy in Hollywood California so there was no rust, and have paper work to prove that. If you are familiar with F100 you would know that the brake is on the left side and the gas is on the right side. It was horrible to drive, because the steering column is straight down in between the gas & the brake pedal. So when you needed to use the brakes you would have to swing your foot around the steering column. It was extremely dangerous. I had it moved next to the gas pedal on the right side. What a pleasure. New automatic C6 Transmission cost was $3,600.00 I paid a little less because John from Orange County Transmission was my landlord. New aluminum high performance Radiator with fan. New Aluminum gas tank New Chrome bumpers, new Bed, New fenders, New taillights and New butterfly window Chrome locks. The locks for the fly windows were put in wrong and when I closed them it cracked the glass. Easy fix, but since I live in an area that snows all the time I won’t take it out of the Garage other than driving it up and down my road. Don’t want salt snow or rain to touch her.

You should know that this Truck comes with an extra brand new Painted tailgate. When the truck was being transformed the body, shop purchased the wrong tailgate without the Ford Stamped tailgate. Once I seen that I had them immediately replace with the Ford emblem.So now you have an extra painted new tailgate that has never been used.New front windshield, New plank wood in the Bed with chrome slats. LedGlow light system. You control the light system with your phone. The lights are under the running boards and the inside of the truck under the dash, back and front. Hope to have pictures of this truck at night with the LEDGLOW lights. {Stunning} There are two very, very small chips on this truck so small the camera didn't pick it up. One is on the running board and the other is on the hood where it closes in the seam, and when the hood is closed you can't see it. Pioneer Stereo W/CD, New shocks, New battery with new wires. Had all wiring redone at a cost of $1,100.00 New upholstery throughout, new headliner and under dash enclosure, new Rug all done by Mike's upholstery in Middletown New York.

Have the motor to the windshield wipers and will go with the truck. I carry rain X in case I’m stuck in rain.

The Ford F-Series is known across the globe as a tough, virtually unbreakable workhorse. Through solid engineering and fresh innovation, America's best-selling nameplate has dominated the full-size truck market for close to 30 years. With that in mind, the demand for classic trucks has never been hotter. Ford F100 classic pick-up have when up 40% in the pass 5 years. And that means, after a lifetime of dedicated service, more and more of these gladiators are being retired to dry garages and leisurely show fields. This truck was featured in The Times Herald Record and you will get a copy of that article. Came in first place 4 time at our local car & truck shows and was only shown 7 times.The beneficiary of an extensive, frame-off restoration, this award-winning dressed big block and elegant interior in many well-thought modifications that make it a perfect candidate for miles of parade and years of display. The only thing that the new buyer may want to do is buy new tires and rims. Reason I’m leaving that to the new owner is everyone has your own taste. I wasn’t sure if I would go with chrome rims or power coated rims. I lowered my reserve with the understanding that new owner may want these changes. If it doesn’t sell in two weeks I’m doing the Tires & rims, but it will affect the cost. It would have been very easy to may these changes myself, but due to the new owner’s taste is the only reason I left that out. Tires and rims that are on this truck are not bad, just deserves better. If you're in the market for a stand out classic, settle in and take a closer look at this sweet Ford pickup!

The truck was rolled out of the paint booth to be lovingly wet-sanded and carefully polished. And today, a little over $70,000.00 later, this classy hot rod is one sizzling show-stopper that's cooler than pretty much every car at any show its owner chooses to attend!

A big part of successfully marketing cars and trucks is coming up with memorable but sometimes cheesy slogans. You might find this clich, but 'Built Ford Tough' and 'Built to Last' perfectly describe this fine custom. Despite taking on the softer attributes of a street rod, it still maintains the rugged good looks of traditional Ford trucks. And, thanks to the previous owner's carefully planned modifications, it has a distinct charm that'll last for generations. That charm begins with a bright chrome grille, classy chrome bumper. Behind that grille. All metal no plastic or fiberglass.At the sides of that hood, broad fenders lead the eye to rounded doors, traditional door handles, custom running boards and a custom fuel door.And at the back of the truck, a chained, "FORD" stamped tailgate rides between "New taillights.

. Flip this Ford upside down and you'll find a roster of mechanical improvements that mix classic looks with modern mobility. Behind the big-bore engine ready to roll!

One part vintage and One part modern, this pickup's warm and welcoming interior looks straight out of an old school Hot Rod magazine.

The proud new owner of this American icon will receive:

A stack of restoration receipts

A binder that includes a detailed restoration history and numerous restoration photos.
