Ford F-100 1956 Description

UP FOR AUCTION WE HAVE THIS GOOD RESTORABLE 1956 FORD F100 BIG BACK WINDOW PICKUP . THIS TRUCK NEEDS COMPLETE RESTORATION . IT WAS IN DRY STORAGE FOR MANY YEARS . THESE ORIGINAL BIG BACK WINDOW TRUCKS ARE GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO FIND IN UN RESTORED CONDITION. JUST SO BIDDEERS KNOW . HIS IS AN ORIGINAL BIG BACK WINDOW CAB AND NOT A CONVERSION FROM A KIT . IT IS A FACTORY 6 CYLINDER ENGINE WITH A AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND A BIG BACK WINDOW CAB . THATS A DIFFERENT TYPE OF COMBINATION FOR A 56 F100 . THIS TRUCK MAY BE FOR THE PUREST TYPE COLLECTOR WHO WANTS ORIGINALITY . AS TO CONDITION . THIS TRUCK HAD SOME ISSUES WITH THE ROOF AREA SO WE REPAIRED THAT PROBLEM . WE CUT OUT THE RUSTED METAL AND WELDED IN GUSSETS AND NEW OUTER METAL AND THEN THE BODY FILLER . THE ROOF IS NOW VERY NICE . WE ALSO PATCHED THE TWO REAR FENDERS WHERE THE MEET THE RUNNING BOARDS . THEY WILL NEED THE RUNNING BOARD HOLES DRILLED WHEN NEW BOARDS ARE FITTED . THE REST OF THIS TRUCK WILL NEED SMALL RUST AND DENT REPAIRS HERE ANDD THERE BUT NOTHING REAL MAJOR . OVER ALL THIS TRUCK IS A REAL GOOD BUILDER PROJECT FOR RESTORATION . IT NOW HAS A NEW FRONT WINDSHIELD RUBBER GASKET AND A NEW REAR RUBBER GASKET . THE WINDSHIELD AND REAR GLASS ARE BOTH VERY USABLE . NO DOOR GLASS . THE FENDERS ARE ALL VERY USABLE BUT THE PASSENGER FRONT FENDER HAS SEVERAL DENTS IN IT . ALL OTHER FENDERS HAVE ONLY SMALL DINGS . THE WOOD AND THE METAL STRIPS IN THE BOX WAS JUNK SO WE REMOVED THAT AND THE BOX WILL NEED A NEW WOOD KIT . THE ENGINE TURNS OVER JUST FINE BUT I HAVE NOT HAD IT RUNNING . IT WILL NEED THE USUAL PREP WORK FOR IT TO RUN . THIS TRUCK HAS A GOOD CLEAN TITLE IN MY NAME AND MATCHING VIN PLATE . SPEEDOMETER READS 47. 00 BUT I CAN'T SAY THATS ORIGINAL . THERE ARE A COUPLE BOXES OF PARTS FOR THIS TRUCK BECAUSE IT WAS DISASSEMBLED WHEN I GOT IT SO I TACKED IT BACK TOGETHER THE BST I COULD . IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE BASICS ARE HEAR WITH THE TRUCK . HERE IS WHAT I SEE MISSING . --- THE RUNNING BOARDS -- THE REAR WINDOW STAINLESS MOULDINGS -- R AND L DOOR GLASS -- REAR BUMPER BRACKETS . -- BATTERY BOX . -- FRONT VALANCE PAN BELOW BUMPER . THESE ARE THE BASICS BUT THERE VERY WELL MAY BE SOME SMALLER PIECES MISSING AS WELL . OTHER THEN THIS LIST . nbsp; I THINK MOST OF THIS TRUCK IS HERE . THE SEAT RISERS ARE HERE BUT THERE IN ROUGH SHAPE . SEAT SPRINGS ARE GOOD USABLE . GAS TANK IS IN GOOD CONDITION BUT WILL NEED THE USUAL CLEANING OUT INSIDE . THATS ABOUT IT FOR DISCRIPTION .
