When it comes to practicality, it’s hard to beat the good old pickup truck. A symbol of ruggedness, utility, and preparedness, if you own anything with a cargo bed, you’ll know how many times you’re asked to help out with transportation-related errands. But while many pickups live and die as workhorses, there are few that get lovingly restored to become true works of art. “A work of art” is the best way to describe this 1940 MY Ford Pickup restoration, which has undergone extensive work to preserve this timeless slice of automotive heritage. The restoration work carried out on this pickup includes a complete respray and a newly upholstered interior.
Although built to lead a life of hard work, few trucks have been made that could challenge the 1940 Ford Pickup for design beauty. The already elegant styling has been enhanced with a new paint job, which the owner reports was carried out in 2023. The restoration efforts also included all new glass parts and new lights. The grey exterior is perfectly set off by the wheels, which feature chrome hubcaps with whitewall tires. Finally, the truck’s bed floor has been newly refitted with wood. The cabin has been refreshed with a newly upholstered light grey interior. The bench seat has been sourced new, while the headliner has also been redone. A large four-spoke steering wheel is in place, behind which sits a bank of new VDO gauges that monitor vital parameters, including road speed, water temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel levels.
Under the expansive hood is a 221ci Flathead V8 motor. The engine itself is a sight to behold, with the simple and uncomplicated bay featuring plenty of chrome ancillaries. The V8 delivers power to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transmission that has been sourced from a 1995 Ford Mustang. The 1940 Ford Pickup features a floor-mounted shifter, while for maximum load-carry capabilities, the rear end features a solid axle with leaf springs.

This classic American truck sees a full restoration and is built to serve as your loyal weekend cruiser or eye candy on your driveway.
Widely considered as one of the first proper American Sport Utility Vehicles, the Ford Bronco came in 1966, and ran for five generations until 1996. Ford then decided to withdraw the nameplate, amidst some grumbling from the public. However, they had a change of heart two and a half decades later, and a sixth generation Bronco debuted in 2021, to much cheering and applause. The all-new sixth generation Bronco retains many signature features of the original, including removable doors and roof. Plus, it’s got some decent performance. But for those who crave more than decent, we’ve got a custom build by Hennessey Performance right here. This 2024 Ford Bronco Hennessey Velociraptor 500 is just one of 200 built with the Freedom Series Package, includes a serial numbered engine plaque, and has 500 horses on tap. With a mere 7,023 miles on its odometer, this fantastic family SUV awaits a new owner in Orlando, Florida. Contact us ASAP if you’d like to buy it.
Ford’s Model T was such a runaway hit that they had to really knock it out of the park with a successor. Cue up 1927’s Ford Model A, of which over 4.8 million were sold by 1932. The Model A brought about many improvements, including a 3-speed gearbox, a top speed of over 65mph which was positively dizzying in those days, and the traditional layout of clutch, brake, accelerator pedals from left to right. Very few will know that a Model T also had three pedals but with totally different arrangements. Finding a Model A in pristine order is still tough, but we’ve got an appealing 1929 Ford Model A Roadster for sale today. Coming from Natick, Massachusetts, this car boasts 90,000 miles and looks in great condition for something that’s just four years shy of its Centurion birthday.
Ford’s F-Series extends beyond full-size pickup trucks, and into some seriously potent commercial machines. Cue up the Super Duty, which is now in the fifth generation. Today, we’ve got a specially decked-out fourth-generation 2022 Ford F-550 Lariat that’s outfitted for a specific purpose. Perhaps you can glean what that purpose is from our pictures, otherwise we’ll tell you in the following sections. This 60,100-mile truck currently resides in Key West, Florida, and is looking for a new owner.
After making the transition to building civilian versions of their famed military off-roaders, Jeep quickly became a byword for stylish, practical, and dependable transport that could do anything and go virtually anywhere. One look at our 1978 Jeep CJ-7 and you’ll see its war-winning roots. At the same time, it continues to bear a resemblance to a brand that continues to mobilise many off-roading enthusiasts. Now with an upgraded 304ci AMC V8 engine under the hood and additional functional and stylistic modifications, this Jeep CJ-7 is looking for a new home. It could be the deal of the year, with the owner reporting to have fully restored this Jeep with over $13,000 worth of upgrades.
The Ford F-1 is the genesis for the F-series line of trucks - a line that has spawned the most popular type of pickup in the world. And after years in the spotlight, there are plenty of examples around. Whether you’re into immaculate period-correct restorations, honest workhorses, or madly modified restomods, there’s likely an F-1 out there for you. Our featured 1951 Ford F-1 is very much a restomod, with a stunning exterior and some surprises under the hood as well. Featuring a rebuilt 305ci Chevrolet engine and transmission that were reportedly completed less than 3,000 miles ago, this black-on-black pickup is based in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.
Ford debuted the F-Series of pickup trucks in 1948, with the F-1 representing the entry-level, half-ton variant. By 1953, the second generation was introduced, and the F-1 became the F-100. Several generations later, by the seventh generation, a familiar number came; 150. Yes, the F-Series is still around, on the fourteenth generation, and the F-150 is one of the most popular pickup trucks in the USA. Today, we’ve got a nice third-generation 1960 Ford F-100 for sale that’s a great way to celebrate this iconic series and nameplate from one of America’s most prolific automakers. This Arizona-based example is more of a restomod, and comes with a powerful engine too. Let’s discover more about this truck, and find out why you should snap it up ASAP.
