1955 Ford Truck Custom Cab F100 Hot Rod!! Rat Rod!!! on 2040-cars

This is a 1955 Ford Truck F100 Custom Cab! I recently picked this truck up and have not had it long. The truck was built back in the day! late 70's- early 80's. This is a Running Driving Truck! I had to do a few things to it because it had been sitting for quite a few years. I got it running and it runs really good! I have driven the truck around for the last few days, not too far because it is currently on a Ca Non Op. It might still have a few Bugs I would kit carb at some point but she still sounds and runs good down the road. Gears have been changed by previous owner, it will get down the freeway with no problem! I'll try and give my best description of the truck but a lot has been done to it.

Body is good, sheet metal is straight! Paint is older and does have Clear coming off at different areas on truck. There are a few places where paint has pealed so either run like that or it will need paint! your choice! This Truck does have the Tilt front Hood which is set up with Hydraulic tilt that is some how connected to the power steering pump. (I could not get it to work) so u can lift the hood Manually. Interior is straight out of the 70's has that cool old look. Has after market Gauges and they work! Has Under the Dash AC Unit and it blows but will need service!!! Owner told me it worked when parked!! Nice original Seat and has Seat Belts!! inside looks good!!could use a little cleaning like (carpet). Very Nice Grille and YES the Bumpers are off another Truck!! He want that Big Look for the Truck!! Tailgate is custom with Hidden Cables! Ok now for the Rust The Rear Cab Corners will need replaced or repaired! (please see Pics). The Bed is Custom Made! Sides Super Straight and Smooth, also Custom Tailgate Smooth! The Top of Bed Rails have been replaced with Stainless Steel (please look at pics)  I have Ply wood in Bed that I put in and will have a couple bolts holding it down.

Motor is Ford SB either a 260-289, It has a 3 Speed on the Floor mated to it. Fun to Drive with the Floor shifter!!! It starts right up! and sounds good with the Dual Exhaust and I believe the pipes are Glass Packs (sounds Great)! I really don't know a lot about the engine I think the only thing I would do it maybe Kit the Carb, it idles good after it warms up. I think the engine is around 1964-66. The motor does need some cleaning has oil here and there. I have had this trucked parked in my garage for a month or so and no oil leaks on the floor, (not sure where the old oil on block came from).

Chassis is all Original Ford! This Truck Does have Power Steering and Steers really Nice down the Road and when stopped it turns easy!! I drove the truck at high speeds and she drove Straight and Brakes work Like 1955 Brakes Should!! (if you know what I mean you have to put some foot power on them) lol It does not wonder down the road but if you hit a bump it does pull a little nothing bad at all!

Electrical is all there and does have a few too many wires on fire wall but I guess that's the way the guy did it back then. Lights, Blinkers, Hazards, Taillights. Brake lights, Dome light, Wipers all WORK!!!

This is a Running Truck! I have not had it long at all so I 'mtelling you what I know and see on the truck. Its not a show truck its a Hot Rod, Rat Rod or Cruiser, Its Old School and Looks Old School. The Truck sat for a few years before I got to it, so I only know what I see. Still a nice little 55 that you can drive and still do your own stuff to it. If You Have any Questions Please ask!!!

 I am trying to describe the truck the best I can. I have not have it long.
