If you love the look of a vintage truck but want the peace of mind of a new one ~~ this truck is perfect for you!
Up for auction is our 1948 Ford F-1 truck. This truck is an original survivor and carries its original patina. You can't replicate what Mother Nature has done.
This is a true shop truck whose life began at Gibbs Garagelocated at 3115 S. Robinson St. in Oklahoma City. After surviving its years at the garage, "Gibbs" slept along the fence row waiting for someone to appreciate his charm once again. With decades passing, that evening came on September 22, 2015 when Gibbs was awakened by headlights and he was rescued.
Sweeping away the years of debris, our builder Anthony Alvarez of Anarchy Fabrication in Paradise, TX began uncovering the true beauty of Gibbs. He was healed of his cancerous corners, floor boards, and tattered edges leaving most of his body with its original characteristics and beauty.
With a custom lowered suspension and boxed-in frame, custom cross member and engine mounts, Mustang II front suspension, front disc brakes with custom copper brake lines, coil assisted shocks in rear, custom headers and exhaust, custom roll pan, halo LED headlights, new Painless full LS wiring system, new aluminum radiator, underbed gas tank, and new bed wood with undercoating, along with Gibbs restored clear coated body, he deserved a bit of power under his bonnet.
420 HP from an LS1 engine providesGibbs the power of his dreams. Ready to cruise down the road in style with power brakes and steering, Nostalgic Air, Nu-Relics power windows, Dakota Digital gauges, Lokar shifter, Dyna Mat insulation, dual electric windshield wipers, door to door 70/30 split loop carpet and bucket seats and custom console with blue tooth stereo, Gibbs is ready to drive anywhere you want to go.
