Description for Ford F-100 1956

Here is SUPER SUPERdry California 1956 f100. 6 cylinder with 4 speed on the floor. If you are looking for a great truck here it is. Truck was parked in 1997. Oiled motor and fired right up. No smoke engine is very solid. Rebuilt orig radiator, new fuel pump, new battery, rebuilt orig carb, new hoses, rebuilt original water pump. Clutch works great and also transmission shifts great. Needs brakes. I would say engine needs a valve job or needs a valve spring ( lacking I little power and is a little chuggy. I talked to a machine shop and they said $175 for a valve job. Engine has NOsmoke and starts right up and can run all day and never gets warm. Has vintage Firestone tiresthat look almost new and no dry rot but don't know how old they are? Has a cracked rear window and no driver door window. All lights work, spot light works, cigarette lighter works, front vent works great, wipers work, horn works. Was painted blue over 30 years ago. This is a very solid and almost rust free truck. Top of cab is GREAT, Floors are GREAT, rear cab corners GREAT, rockers GREAT, the bad spot is were the running boards and rear fenders connect ( lots of stepping on and vibration see pic) other than that SOLID. To make this a daily driver just do the brakes ( cheap) and valve job or valve spring ( cheap) and you will have an amazing barn find patina 1956 f100 that's going up in value everyday.
