With the amazing looking paint, plenty of custom touches (including the A/C interior), and the performance V8 under the hood, you'll probably give the nickname "Quicksilver" to this 1954 Ford F-100.There's no denying that the mid-50s Ford pickups were some of the best-looking tools Ford Motor Division ever built, and this is the cream of the crop. The cab's aggressive forward-leaning stance is enhanced here with the staggered size of the Ridler alloys. The rest of the curvy bodywork has a classic old pickup look that also manages to be sporty at the same time. You can see a serious investment from top to bottom that resulted in a very straight truck. It was then dipped in a silver worthy of the precious metal's name. There was a professional hand that laid down this metal flake finish, and the result it the kind of luster that will make you proud to take this out on every sunny day. A silver with this much shine means the brightwork has to be at its best to keep up. You see it everywhere from the mirror-like grille, to the door handles, to the slats securing the real wood truck bed.Open the door and you can see instantly that this is a custom build with a lot of money invested. The standard bench seat has been replaced with a custom seat that has a sport pattern that wouldn't look out of place on a Mustang or Corvette. And the two-tone gray used for the seats matches the side panels and headliner, as well as coordinate nicely with the exterior silver that returns on the doors and dash. The result is the appearance of a true uniform build that people will love to see. But more than just for show, this F-100 was built to be comfortable, too. That's why you've been upgraded to keyless entry, power locks, power windows, and a Kenwood AM/FM/CD stereo. Best of all, there's cold air conditioning so you can stay cool while looking cool in this icy sliver machine. And the moment you grab the banjo-style steering wheel and gaze at the full set of Shark gauges, you'll instantly now this truck was made for driving, too.The moment you pop the hood at the car show everyone will know you have something special. After all, how many F-100 pickups do you see with a clamshell hood? And once people get closer, they will see this beast of a motor shining brightly in the super-slick engine bay. This is a 351 cubic-inch Windsor V8 that's been upgraded with plenty of bright components like the air grabber, pulleys, master cylinder, and Ford Racing valve covers. But more than just flash, it has the substance of an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock Performer intake. Plus, this one has all the right reliability you'll love considering the V8 has been rebuilt recently, and it also now features an aluminum radiator w/electric fan so this Ford stays cool even in traffic with the A/C running. If it all sounds like a great anytime driving package, then you'll also love that it has a rebuilt four-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive. Add in power steering, front disc brakes, and modern Michelin tires, and you can easily drive to car shows many states away without breaking a sweat.Complete with build receipts and maintenance records, this custom build perfectly combines classic looks, modern conveniences, and rumbling V8 power.
