At first glance, you would not connect this 1954 Ford F100 Panel Truck Restomod to being one of the early F-Series models. However, that’s exactly what this is. From the second generation of F-Series, to be exact, this is a four-door panel van. With just 1,000 miles after its extensive restomod, this is one eye-catching vehicle to drive around in, and it’s got several modern conveniences and creature comforts on the inside too. What’s beneath the hood isn’t too shabby either. Let’s find out.
Wearing a blue paintwork with custom “We The People” motifs along the rear panel van upper sections, this 1954 Ford F100 Panel Truck Restomod will certainly turn heads as it rolls and rumbles along. It’s a four-door panel van, but that means two doors up front, and two more serving as the tailgate. Five-spoke chromed alloy wheels complement the extensive chrome detailing on the grille, and out back, two straight shooter style tailpipes are responsible for the rumbles. The interior is a black and blue affair, and contains many custom bits and modifications. The aftermarket steering wheel is a great place to start, and it’s a wood-rimmed, chromed, three-spoke affair. Directly ahead of it lie digitally fed Pro Comp Ultra-Lite speedo and tacho gauges. Shift your attention to the center console for a quartet of smaller Equus gauges to measure matters such as fuel level, battery voltage, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. You’ll also notice the Alpine AM/FM/CD receiver beneath, that takes you into modern times for your choice of tunes. That’s not all, though. Shift your gaze directly to the left of the Alpine unit, and a little Vintage Air control panel lies there, for the aftermarket air conditioning system. The interior is also lit by LED lights. Isn’t that all the comfort and entertainment you need, while cruising in this showpiece?
We’ve talked about cruising, but the fact is, this 1954 Ford F100 Panel Truck Restomod can very well issue a bruising to other vehicles if desired. Ford’s largest offering in 1954 on one of these was a 317ci Lincoln Y-Block V8, but this 1954 Ford Panel Van Restomod takes things up several notches. It packs a Ford Racing 460ci V8 that’s reportedly received a rebuild. Fed via a Holley Sniper EFI system and electric fuel pump, ample power and torque is sent to the rear wheels via a C6 automatic transmission and Ford 9-inch rear end. Disc brakes up front, augmented by drums at the rear help bring the whole caboodle to a stop, while power steering makes maneuvering easier.
The second generation of Ford’s famous F-Series was made between 1953 and 1956. The F-100 was the half-tonner that marked entry into the series, and it was also the best seller. After all, a half-ton truck was what most farmers, small business holders and tradespersons needed. They didn’t want something larger and heavier. Instead, the half-tonner could fulfil work, as well as family transport needs. As time passed by, some of these trucks languished in disrepair, some were restored to pristinely stock order, and some became restomods. This 1954 Ford F-100 Restomod comes from that third category. With an extensive makeover that includes a gargantuan 521ci V8 under the hood, this 2,679-mile machine is now available in Mordoc, Indiana. Its interior has been reupholstered, its got a Flowmaster dual exhaust system, and much more to enjoy.
For decades, the Ford F-Series has been the default choice of many small business holders, particularly those in rural areas. These include farmers, mechanics and other blue-collar workers who’ve needed a truck that would never let them down, especially when driving in the middle of nowhere. That’s why the F-Series counts a fine legacy of fourteen generations since 1948 to date. Initially, the half-ton variant was called F-1, before becoming F-100, and then the famous F-150 moniker that we know today. Now, selecting a classic F-Series truck is a very smart decision because they are becoming quite desirable. Case in point, this 1972 Ford F-100 from Huntington Beach. With just 1,460 miles on the clock. If you want it for yourself, just contact us.

What have we got here? Is it KITT, then? Well, not quite. It’s the exact model of Shelby Mustang used for the 2008 reboot of Knight Rider – the GT500KR.

In case that isn’t enough, this 1,400-mile machine from Iowa also has the Shaker 1000 audio system, Shelby GT500KR forged wheels and even a carbon fiber rear spoiler and front splitter.
