Arguably the best-looking pickup of the 1950s, the F-100 makes a great-looking hot rod without much alteration at all. But when the custom work is taken up a notch, as in the case of this particular 1955 Ford F-100, the curb appeal goes through the roof. Wicked paint, an aggressive stance, 390 big block power, and a comfortable A/C interior, this dialed-in Ford is miles away from your Grandad's old hauler, yet still retains its vintage presence even with a host of upgrades. If you crave lots of attention and the performance to back it up, this dialed-in truck delivers in a big way.

Bright colors always work well on vintage pickup trucks, but the particular shade of Grabber Blue is so bright and vivid that you almost need sunglasses to look directly at it. Mixed up by professionals, it's a basecoat/clearcoat paint that was expertly applied over laser straight sheetmetal, and it has such a deep luster and shine you'd think any fly that landed on it might drown. Custom flame work was added for a bespoke touch on the front end, and the darker blue colors chosen for the accents really work great up against the light blue finish, especially on the hood. During the restoration the cab was replaced with that of a '56 so it has that beautiful wrap around windshield. Everything was very neatly restored and fitted, so the gaps are exacting and even the big hood fits evenly with the fenders. It's the kind of detail that you don't notice immediately but gives the whole truck a very high-quality look that stands up to scrutiny. Everything is steel, too, including the running boards, and the Ford metal looks straight as an arrow when you look down the sides. It's pretty difficult to believe that this truck was completed in 1995, but it certainly speaks to the quality of the build, and how incredibly well-cared-for it's been ever since. Most of the original chrome and stainless trim was left in place, including the grille and headlight surrounds, the gorgeous Ford F-100 emblems on the hood, and the bright chrome pumpers found fore and aft that provided great contrast against the blue finish. Cool-looking taillights are highlighted with company script on the lenses, as was the style with original pickups from the era, while the bed is lined with beautifully finished oak boards and stainless steel rub strips that look so nice you'll hesitate before you haul anything dirty away from Home Depot.

The Ford's utilitarian interior got a huge makeover, anchored by a supple, splint-bench seat that was cut down and wrapped in gorgeous light gray leather that's all-day comfortable. Accentuated by elegant pleated inserts and supported by thick cushions, all pretext of working for a living has been wiped out, creating a luxury-oriented cockpit that's a pleasure to visit. The door panels were upholstered to match the seat, as was the back of the cab, and the headliner was wrapped in dark navy to mirror the look of the plush navy carpets below. A tilt steering column with a leather-wrapped Lecarra steering wheel makes it easy to get comfortable, a billet shifter joins it on the column and falls easy to hand, and there's a full set of handsome original gauges inside a chrome bezel in the dash. A set of auxiliary gauges, including a large tachometer in the center of the dash, were added to keep an eye on the big block under the hood, while aftermarket options like a Kenwood AM/FM/CD head unit, power windows, and a full R134a A/C system were added to make the cab that much more comfortable.

Power in the form of a 390 cubic inch V8, and that genuine 'Built Ford Tough' big block power means that this truck moves with genuine authority. A big Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor atop a polished intake helps build power, while the custom dual exhaust system sounds absolutely fantastic up and down the throttle. The forward-tilting hood covers the big engine without restricting service access, and it looks right tucked back under the cowl and in between the neatly painted inner fenders and firewall. A few chrome and billet dress-up parts add some flash and the blue theme continues with matching details like the power steering pump and power brake booster, while a big aluminum radiator with dual electric fans help keep the show nice and cool. Underneath, the Ford's original frame was reinforced and fitted with a Volare front clip with a thick sway bar, power steering, and power front disc brakes. There's a C6 3-speed automatic transmission built with a trans cooler and a sturdy rear end out back, so it definitely feels like a muscle car from behind the wheel, and it can easily handle the rigors of the modern road. The aggressively raked stance looks great, punctuated with a shiny set of Full Moon wheels adorned with blue 'Ford' script in the center, and it sits on staggered 245/60/15 front and 275/60/15 rear BFGoodrich white-letter radials.

Beautifully built, expertly finished, and nicely sorted, this is a truck that will attract a lot of attention and still put a big smile on the driver's face. Call today!

General Terms

Terms & Conditions

We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).

FEES: A documentation fee of $199 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.

AVAILABILITY: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.

CONTACT: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.

INSPECTION: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.

PAYMENT: We require a non-refundable $500 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers. SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.

DRIVE IT HOME: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.

DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.

VIN VERIFICATION: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.

MILEAGES: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.

CONDITION: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.

AS-IS: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!

DISCLAIMER: This site and all advertising information may be updated without notice whenever new information is obtained and may contain mistakes and inaccuracies. Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied.

Fees and Taxes

Sales tax, title, license fee, registration fee, dealer documentary fee, finance charges, emission testing fees, and compliance fees are additional to the advertised price. Vehicle is listed locally, we reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
