1956 Ford F100 F-100 Pickup Custom Automatic

1956 Ford F-100 Description:

Selling my 1956 F100 that's been in my family for sometime now. My brother had it before me, in 2007 this truck had an entire restoration to the tune of almost $75K at that time. I'ts been driven a little over 3000 miles in the last 11 years. For the past 2.5 years it's been sitting in the garage and in that time I have installed a chevy 396 big block and Turbo 400 transmission, they have about 120 miles on them now, thats it. I also have all the paperwork. When the shop reinstalled the hood the didn't get it aligned as it was before the removed it. It closes fine but there's more of a gap on the passenger side now.
In 2008 the paint job was $12k, eventhough this thing looks beautiful there are a couple flaws here and there. Eventhough there are some flaws in the paint this truck Stands out wherever you go ! When the truck was put on a trailer and taken to the shop the trailer they used was too narrow and they mess up the paint as you can see in the pics on the running boards. Also when they removed the hood at their shop one of the mechanics caused a small bump on the hood in the front and had spilled something on the paint. I'll tell you what, I made them reimburse me big time for what they did.
Since putting in the Big block motor had to remove the column shift and install a floor ratchet shifter.
Truck has front disc brakes and rear drums, power windows, power seats, A/C is all there but not charged up. There is a video screen, Alpine stereo with twin Alpine amps under the seats which are not hooked up at the moment.
2 months ago I had redone the entire front suspension, all Moog ball joints, inner/outer tie rods, drag link and such. Haven't driven since.
Also wired in powered linear acutuators for the tilt hood, very cool
This 56 is Loud and Proud, engine and trans run beautifully and there is Power !!
When I add more pics I will add more details on the truck as well, I hate to let her go but buying a house takes everything as you know....
Any questions feel free and ask !!

Burn out and gettin it on in the 1956 Ford F100
