Description of 1955 Ford F-100

Originally Built to compete in the prestigious Don Riddler Memorial Award at the Detroit Autorama in 2013. This modern of work art has collected multiple awards and magazine cover shots over the years. Included is the SEMA Royal Purplebest truck award, and best interior at the Toronto auto show. I will go into the build specs in detail below. The truck was purchased by its current owner in 2016. The current owner has maintained, and driven it. It has sustained very little signs of being driven. I have shown what I can find in the gallery. There are multiple pics and videos of it running on a google album that if you message me your email address I will send you an invite.
Build details, I have paraphrased from several articles I found on the truck that i am happy to supply to any interested buyer:
  • Body The starting point of the build was a truck that was full of body work. It was decided to discard most of the original body and utilize just the stripped out cab. Work was completed at Oddball Customs inCanada. The body is all sheet metalno glass or mud. The hood and innerstructurehave been reshaped. Paint used was Glazurit. There is a subtle 2 inch chop to the roof. the rear window is from a larger 56 F-100. Drip rails have been shaved as have the door handles, body vents. Seams are all filled custom inner fender wellswere fabricated. Flat running boards, and hidden hinges are just a couple more of the subtle body mods. The bed is completed in white ash wood.
  • Chassis: I find the chassisto be a work of art. One off customer frame designedand built by TCI Engineering utilizing 2X8 inch rectangle steel stock. The cross member, and ladder style frame connectors use perfect finish welds. Curry 9 inch rear end with a 3:70 cogs suspended by a combinationstainless four link with matching Panhard and Anti Roll Bars. Ride Tech Shockwaves are found all around. Electronically controlled airbag system is functionaland allows the truck to "lay frame". Braking is completed by 12 inch Wilwood rotors and fourpiston calipers. Power rack and pinion steering.
  • Interior: the interior futuresa shaved stock dash board, Dakota Digitalgauges. Vintage ac system is housed in the console as is the controls for the air suspension. The door panels and seats are covered with tan/ brown leather. the seats are modified2010 Ford F150 power units. Carpet is Wilton Wool. Audio system is Planet Audio head unitwith JL speakers. All working properly.
  • Motor and Transmission: Newly installed Roush 347R crate motor backed up by a Ford AOD transmission with a HughesPerformance torqueconverter.
