1947 Ford F100

Description

When a hard-working farm truck retires, some go quietly into history. This one hit the gym, got a wardrobe upgrade, and learned a few new tricks. This 1947 Ford F100 has been thoughtfully transformed from honest laborer into full-blown flathead hot rod, finished in a rich Teal Blue Metallic that pops against fresh chrome, classic woodgrain bed panels, and period-correct American Racing Torq Thrust wheels. It’s a short-bed pickup with long-lasting curb appeal—and it knows it. Inside, the vibe shifts from cool to confidently warm with a red vinyl interior that feels perfectly at home in a vintage street machine. A sporty three-spoke steering wheel anchors the cabin, while a full AutoMeter gauge suite keeps tabs on everything that matters, including oil pressure, water temp, volts, fuel, and a bold 120-mph speedometer. A column-mounted AutoMeter tach adds race-inspired flair, and yes—seatbelts are present, because this truck plans on being driven, not just admired. Under the steel hood lives the soul of this build: a 239 cubic-inch Flathead V8 upgraded with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. It breathes through true dual exhaust and Cherry Bomb mufflers, delivering that unmistakable flathead soundtrack that modern engines simply can’t fake. Power runs through a surprisingly civilized AOD four-speed automatic overdrive transmission and out to a ten-bolt rear, making highway cruising as easy as Saturday-night cruising. The driving experience has been thoroughly modernized where it counts, with rack-and-pinion steering, front disc brakes, and traditional leaf-spring suspension that strikes a perfect balance between classic feel and real-world usability. This isn’t a museum piece—it’s a time machine you can actually enjoy. This 1947 Ford F100 is equal parts nostalgia, hot-rod attitude, and thoughtful engineering. It doesn’t just tell a story—it invites you to drive your dream. Autohaus of Naples – Drive Your Dream Autohaus of Naples is a boutique luxury dealership in beautiful Naples, Florida.
