1950 Ford Pickup 350 V8, 700R4 Auto, PS/B w/ 4 Wheel Discs, Vintage A/C
Someone pulled out all the stops on this absolutely dialed-in 1950 Ford F-1, giving it a killer hotrod look with plenty of vintage horsepower and attitude compliments of a Chevy small block V8, slick-shifting overdrive automatic transmission, and a unique Purple Chrome Illusion custom paint job. If you appreciate performance hidden inside an old-school truck, this Ford is for you!
At first glance, it's immediately obvious that this F-1 has a whole lot of good stuff going for it. From the eye-catching finish to the raked profile and to the throaty soundtrack, nobody sees this truck driving by and thinks it's their Grampa's old farm truck. Closer to a restomod than a period-perfect piece on the restoration scale, the pros at Okie's Custom Rods and Cycles set out to make a unique impression with their work. The body was taken off the frame, fiberglass running boards were added, the front fenders were filled and molded, and the vent windows were deleted in favor of one-piece door glass. And speaking of the doors, those are now 'suicide' points of entry, and the power antenna was frenched into the body. Both bumpers were deleted, with a custom rear roll pan taking up the void in the rear, and all the handles and mirrors were shaved for a very smooth look, and after all that custom work that amazing paint job was applied. The color is Dupont's Chrome Illusion (purple), and it's been punctuated with ghost flames up front that really kick things up a notch. Finished just 1,636 miles ago, it still shows like a top-end driver, and dare we say that a clay wax and buff might kick it up even higher. It's not perfect, but the all-steel body (again, sans the fiberglass running boards) is laser straight, the gaps are precise, and the way that sunlight hits the amazing color is just a thing of beauty. The reflections are so vivid people keep wanting to throw coins in it for good luck, and the finish is so deep that it just might accept them. The fat fenders look awesome crouching over the modern rolling stock, the clamshell hood and doors fit about as flush as these get, and the custom MAR-K bed has been filled with fresh oak planks and chrome slats that lend it the look of a dance floor. Chrome is minimal but between the bright grille, hood trim, badging, and those flashy wheels, there's plenty of bling to go around.
