Description

The Ford F-Series debuted in 1948 and went on to become the best-selling vehicle line in America, a title it has held continuously since 1981. This 1955 Ford F-100, part of the second generation and the iconic half-ton model, represents the perfect blend of classic truck styling and modern performance in a beautifully executed restomod build.

Fully restored and tastefully upgraded, this F-100 has logged just approximately 5,000 miles since completion, retaining a fresh, high-quality presentation throughout. The original steel body is finished in a clean silver paint that subtly reveals a blue hue under certain lighting conditions. The front emblem has been removed for a streamlined look, while the grille is finished in a custom combination of dark silver and chrome, giving the truck a sleek, modernized front profile. All remaining chrome, trim, and emblems shine beautifully, and the lightly tinted glass is in excellent condition.

The bed has been fully refinished with new wood planks and stainless steel runners, and additional custom touches include enclosed rear bed sides and a revised tailgate mounting system that eliminates the factory chains for a cleaner appearance. The truck rides on 17-inch American Racing wheels wrapped in Dunlop tires, giving it a confident and well-balanced stance.

Powertrain & Performance

Under the hood is a professionally built Ford 302 V8, a refreshing sight in a sea of non-Ford swaps. The engine is detailed with Ford Racing valve covers, chrome alternator, and chrome air cleaner, all set within a color-matched engine bay that reflects careful planning and craftsmanship. Attention to detail is evident throughout, from hose routing to component placement.

Additional mechanical highlights include:

• Aluminum radiator with custom shroud

• Ceramic-coated headers

• MagnaFlow exhaust with chrome tips

• Automatic transmission with overdrive

• 10-bolt rear end

• Mustang II–style front suspension

• Power steering

• Power front disc brakes

• Air conditioning

The truck starts easily, runs strong, and delivers smooth, confident performance both around town and on the highway.

Interior & Comfort

The interior is fully custom-upholstered in silver to match the exterior, creating a cohesive and upscale look. The bench seat features a fold-down armrest with integrated cupholders and chrome lap belts. Custom door panels include billet handles, while the headliner incorporates a courtesy light and an overhead console housing a JVC AM/FM/CD stereo.

The dashboard has been kept clean and uncluttered, with Vintage Air vents discreetly mounted below the dash. Vintage Air controls and Classic Instruments gauges are neatly integrated into a custom bezel. A painted tilt steering column with billet levers is topped by a Boyd Coddington steering wheel, completing the refined cabin.

Overall Impression

This 1955 Ford F-100 is a high-quality, thoughtfully built restomod that shows exceptionally well and drives even better. It’s a consistent show winner and draws compliments wherever it goes. Combining classic Ford truck heritage with modern comfort and reliability, this F-100 is ready to be driven, displayed, and enjoyed immediately.
