This 1956 Ford F-100 has a true award-worthy vintage style. So if you love old-school, you need to keep reading about this restored show-stopping pickup. Those who love Ford trucks know '56 is the year to get. It's the only time the second-gen F-Series came with the wraparound windshield. And it's that sense of style you see throughout this truck. You have an upgraded red paint that keeps a classic feeling, but now radiates with a clearcoat shine.... It goes particularly well with the mirror-like brightwork pieces like the artful chrome grille, chrome bumpers, and classic two-piece polished wheel covers. You'll love the details, front the Custom Cab badging, to the Ford logo side step plates. Of course, the vintage detail we all love the most is all the lumber in the bed. With the terrific natural-looking floor and matching side rails (with red Ford writing) it's no wonder this is already an award-winner. The interior is about authenticity with a hint of upgrades. You get the classic large embossed three-spoke wheel that always seems to be grippy from every angle. This was made to be a workman's vehicle, that means items like the heater that was there to warm you up after a long fall day out in the fields. But because this one's workman days are over, you get some nice extra features for classic cruising. For example, the bench seat is now covered in a comfy velour cloth. There's a nicely integrated modern control knob below the dash that connects to the modern stereo in the glovebox. Even a USB charger and aux input for the most modern music players. So you get to have your favorite tunes during any Sunday drive. With a pickup that's been this authentic so far, you would expect nothing less than the period-correct 223 cubic-inch motor living under the hood. People will not only marvel at the crisp look of the long block, but also there are terrific details, right down to the Autolite tag on the Holley carb. More than just look great there has been good maintenance, including new ignition components, fuel pump, and rebuilt carb. The result is a pickup that fires up easily and makes a terrific classic sound out of the exhaust. Plus, the column-shifted three-speed manual transmission gives you full control while completing the vintage pickup feeling. Complete with owner's manual, this is the kind of full package that you can take out anytime and instantly turn heads. And at a price like this, it won't stay in our showroom long. Call now!
