This 1953 Ford F-100 was refurbished under previous ownership and was acquired by the selling dealer in June 2015. The truck is finished in blue over blue cloth and vinyl upholstery and is powered by a 239ci Flathead V8 paired with a three-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes body-color 15″ steel wheels, a dual exhaust system, running boards, and a wood bed floor and bedrails along with chrome wheel covers, side mirrors, and bumpers. This F-100 is offered by the selling dealer with an Ohio title.

The truck was repainted blue under previous ownership. Equipment includes a white grille, chrome-finished bumpers, black running boards, side window rain guards, and a wood bed floor and bedrails. Close-up images of exterior blemishes are provided in the gallery.

Body-color 15″ steel wheels feature chrome accents and are mounted with 205/75 American Classic whitewall tires. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel drum brakes.

The bench seat is upholstered in blue cloth and vinyl and is joined by body-color metal surfaces. Black rubber mats protect the floors and the truck is equipped with a cab heater.

The three-spoke steering wheel features a 50th-anniversary center logo and frames a horizontal 90-mph speedometer and supplementary gauges. The five-digit mechanical odometer shows 54 miles. Total mileage is unknown.
