LOT #1306 - 1956 FORD F-100 CUSTOM PICKUP
NO RESERVE
This 1956 Ford F-100 underwent a full no-expense-spared
build and restoration. Under the hood is a fuel-injected
351ci (5.8-liter) Windsor V8 engine paired to a Ford 4-speed
automatic transmission. Highly modified, the 351 Windsor
features several “go-fast” features, including JE Pistons, ARP
studs and a custom exhaust system. The Ford turns with ease
thanks to a Mustang II rack & pinion steering system and rides
on a RideTech ShockWave suspension, while Wilwood brakes
help bring it to a halt. Up front, a forward-tilting hood kit
reveals the detailed and power-packed engine, while a clear
polycarbonate bed floor shows off the detailed rear chassis
and independent rear suspension. The custom bodywork
was brought to life with House of Kolor Ultra Orange Pearl
signed with Egyptian Gold Pearl flames. A full custom
interior matches the exterior detail, and soft crème Ferrari
leather and suede was sewn over Glide Engineering seats and
sculpted door panels. Mercedes-Benz Tan wool carpet covers
the floorboards, while a Genie Shifter and leather-wrapped
Colorado Custom’s wheel command the driving experience.
