Why do automotive enthusiasts embark down the restomod route? There are a variety of reasons. Maybe one wants a unique and distinctive vehicle that tastefully melds vintage and modern aspects. Maybe it’s just too hard to restore a classic vehicle to its period-correct style due to certain factors. Whatever the reason, restomods such as this 1951 Ford F-1 Pickup are undoubtedly desirable vehicles, and the nature of a restomod means that every one is unique. Boasting just 400 miles after a reported full frame-off restoration, it’s ready for a second life.
A red paint job is always eye catching, and this 1951 Ford F-1 Pickup doesn’t disappoint with its Viper Red paint job that proudly shows off that Fifties design, which is all the more special, as this is the first generation of the Ford F-Series! Custom tail lights and rear bumper meld beautifully with the custom tail gate that opens to reveal an oak wood and stainless steel bed that you won’t want to dirty! Polished five-spoke alloys hide four-wheel power disc brakes behind them. The interior is in gray, and includes power windows, air conditioning, new seats and a modern JVC head unit with CD, MP3 and AUX connectivity for a fresh and funky listening experience. Even the gauges are old-style units, but look closer and you can see a digital odometer among the analog speedometer, and the old-style fonts have been silk-screened. Metal pedals and a chromed gear lever are present, as is three-spoke wood-rimmed Grant GT steering wheel.
The first generation of Ford F-Series came with in-line sixes, Flathead V8s and Y-block V8s, but this 1951 Ford F-1 Pickup eschews all of those for a 350ci (5.7L) Corvette V8 with 350hp sent to the rear wheels via a TCI 350 automatic transmission and 3.73 rear end. Rack and pinion power steering means that you don’t need to exert much to steer this truck, and coil over suspension ensures a smooth ride. A custom fuel tank holds ample fuel for plenty of cruising.

Ford’s F-Series is probably America’s longest-running pickup truck series. Introduced in 1948, it’s still going strong after fourteen generations of excellence.

If you’re interested in netting yourself a classic American truck with some tasteful upgrades, contact us right now.
Ford’s longest-running series, the F-Series of pickup trucks dates back to 1948. World War II had ended, and Ford wanted to mobilize American farmers, small business holders and tradespersons. Fiercely competing with Chevy, the F-Series hit the market as soon as possible, and is now in its fourteenth generation! Of course, there’s nothing like a classic F-Series to enjoy that vintage truck vibe, but what about a restomod? Take this second generation 1956 Ford F-100 Restomod as a prime example. It’s a classic F-Series half-ton truck, but features an LT1 V8, an automatic gearbox, a custom interior with air conditioning and Bluetooth, and so much more. Read on to discover what this truck offers, and hit us up if you’d like to purchase it from its current owner in Carlsbad, California.
Classic trucks are just as interesting and worthy of collection as classic cars. Think about it; they’re great examples of mobility in the pre-digital era, and, with icons such as the Ford F-Series, representative of the American economy, of sorts. Yes, countless F-Series trucks have, since 1948, helped millions of small businessholders and tradespersons get around. Now on the fourteenth generation, the F-Series remains one of America’s best-selling trucks. Today, we have a classic fifth-generation 1972 Ford F-100 Sport Custom for sale from Grand Junction, Colorado. With a fresh coat of green paint, an aftermarket audio player and plenty of love lavished on it, this 85,585-mile truck is ready for a new owner.
Now here’s a lovely golden oldie that will put a smile on your face every time you grab its keys and head out to take it for a spin. This pleasing first-generation 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible could be yours if you like. Up for sale in West Palm Beach, Florida with a mere 52,636 miles on the clock, it’s a fine first-generation example of a trend-setter. Yes, if not for the Mustang, we wouldn’t have the pony car segment, as well as models like the Chevy Camaro, Pontiac Firebird, etc. The Mustang not only created a segment, it redefined what the fun but practical car could be. This particular example packs the popular 289ci V8 under the hood, and comes with a manual transmission. It’s also got factory air conditioning!
This 1965 Mustang Convertible presents as a fully developed restomod designed for modern drivability while preserving the identity of an early Mustang. The car carries a 302ci V8 supported by FiTech fuel injection, updated wiring, revised suspension geometry, and several comfort-oriented enhancements. Its Aqua Green Metallic finish and Pony-inspired cabin combine to deliver a distinctive, unified look with classic lines and updated performance manners.
Ford gives its Mustang pony car plenty of gallop straight from the factory. But what if you want a raging racehorse instead? Well, that’s where you’d need to venture into the realm of Shelby. Shelby Mustangs are worshipped and revered as some of the most potent around, ever since Carroll Shelby looked at the first-generation Mustang and decided to work his magic on it. Now, Shelby Mustangs roll out of the Ford factory itself, in tribute to the great man who sadly left us some years back. Today, we have a 2020 Ford Mustang GT350 for sale from Gilbert, Arizona with just 5,900 miles to its name. What’s even nicer is that it’s been tuned by Lund Racing and features a supercharger installed on to its 5.2-liter V8. This, the 6-speed manual transmission and many more things make this the ultimate performance Mustang for the discerning driving enthusiast.
The OG Hummer, the AM General Humvee is the military variant on which the entire Hummer brand was created around, at the request of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Having encountered these vehicles in movies, it’s no surprise that The Terminator fell in love with them. Of course, at that time, the only way a civilian could expose themselves to a Humvee in the capacity of driving it was to likely join the military. Now, you can find plenty of old, ex-service Humvees entering civilian life after they retire from active duty. This 1987 AM General Humvee M998 is one such candidate, and it’s got just 37,300 miles to its name. But that’s not important, what matters is how it’s been tastefully customized. You’ve got a Tropical Blue repaint, a custom navy and white Sunbrella top, a diesel V8 under the hood, and so much more to appreciate. Hard to imagine, isn’t it, that this was once a military troop transport!
Today, RAM is a stand-alone brand of pickup trucks and well-known for its versatile array of tough, capable and yes, luxurious offerings in the full-size, medium-duty and heavy-duty segments. But before 2010, RAM was merely a model under the Dodge hierarchy, and the trucks were known as the Dodge Ram. That’s what we have here, a 1997 Dodge Ram 2500 LT for sale from Baytown, Texas. This is a second-generation Dodge RAM and it’s done 154,788 miles so far. With its Cummins turbodiesel six, manual gearbox and replaced interior, it’s the ideal truck for someone looking for a decent workhorse, as well as a person who wants something a little different from the Nineties. Contact us if you fit the bill.
The first new Chevy truck to come out since World War II ended, the Advance Design era ran between 1947 and 1955. It replaced the older AK series and was bigger, stronger and sleeker in design. The range started with the 3100 half-tonner, and went on through the one-ton 3800, and into chassis cabs and medium-duty trucks. Now, the Advance Design has found some fame as a restomod platform. That’s what we have here, a 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod from Smithville, Texas. This truck has undergone a full makeover, including a new 396ci V8, a 4-speed automatic gearbox, air conditioning and much more. If you want to rock and roll around in something different to your typical classic car, this is a fine option to consider.
