Since 1948, Ford’s F-Series lineup of pickup trucks has been an American institution, and continues to this day with the fourteenth generation. Few model lineups can boast such a long production run, making the F-Series a crucial part of American automotive history. Each generation brought something new to the table. This seventh generation 1981 Ford F-100 is thus worthy of your consideration, as it’s tastefully restomodded, comes with 89,200 miles, and a nice surprise under the hood.
Wearing a very prominent red paintwork, you will spot this 1981 Ford F-100 even if you park it in a sea of pickup trucks. Rolling on a set of five-spoke black Ridler alloy wheels with silver accents only enhances its distinctiveness. The body looks straight, the paintwork looks neat, the light lenses look clear, what more could you ask for? There’s also a little Cobra badge on the side flanks, and we will get to that in due course. The owner reports dual side exit exhausts but they appear to be hidden and not easily noticeable. The interior seats two occupants on a set of low-backed seats with red and black RIXXU covers. There’s a full set of instruments, including the 85-mph speedometer that was mandated at the time, and an aftermarket rev counter takes center stage. This is another hint that the powertrain isn’t stock, although the most glaring hint is the chromed Hurst gear stick topped with a white Hurst gear knob. The windows are roll-down units, the ventilation system controls remain in the dash, but the entertainment has been upgraded with a Sony double DIN sized unit that brings Android Auto and Apple CarPlay capabilities to this Eighties truck.
Typically, a seventh generation F-Series truck would come with a variety of V6 and V8 engines, as well as a V8 diesel from International Harvester. However, this 1981 Ford F-100 eschews all that for a 1986 302ci (5.0L) Mustang Cobra V8. Now you understand the Cobra badges on the side flanks! In 1986, this engine was rated for 200hp and 285lb-ft so let’s assume that’s what is sent to the rear wheels of this truck via a 5-speed manual transmission as reported by the owner.
This 1962 Ford F100 Custom Restomod represents the culmination of a meticulous four-year, ground-up build that blends vintage styling with modern performance and craftsmanship. A complete frame-off restoration ensured every detail was addressed, resulting in a truck that is both a showpiece and fully functional. It has won numerous awards, including an NSRA Safety 23 Certificate, and was never transported to events or shows via trailer. Featuring a custom-built chassis from Scott’s Hotrods and Customs, high-performance drivetrain components, and a stunning beige and bronze exterior paint scheme, this F100 is a unique example of restomod excellence. A detailed photo build book, along with receipts and documentation, accompanies the vehicle.
When you think of vehicles that have moved a nation and created significant impact in their respective industry its hard to look past the Ford F-100. For years the humble American truck has been the symbol of perseverance, trust and the American spirit. The current marketplace for Ford F-100’s features a twist – classic examples can take two different journeys, some prefer to build and deck their trucks with the latest aftermarket features and some prefer things the old fashioned factory way. Present today is the latter and takes form with this 1968 Ford F-100 we have today. With a reported 17,000 miles on the clock, this '60s beauty is the perfect classic motor that can also serve as a practical way of getting about.
Sure, it’s a truck. But it’s one of the most legendary truck series in the world. The venerable Ford F-Series is still going strong, now on its fourteenth generation. The most popular member of the series is the F-150, but before that, it was the F-100. This marked the half-ton entry-point into F-Series ownership and mobilized millions of Americans since 1948. If you’re interested in owning a slice of American history, check out this 1956 Ford F-100 Restomod with just 1,000 miles after a full makeover. It’s been completely restored and features a rebuilt V8, plus a few creature comforts.
Ford’s longest-running series to date, the F-Series entered production in 1948, and revolutionized small businesses across America. Here was a sturdy, capable and reliable pickup truck that came in capacities of ½ ton upwards. It offered a great way to transport your goods to market, bring back raw materials, and carry your family as well. Now we’re on the fourteenth generation of the F-Series, and there have been many greats along the way. This 2008 Ford F-150 Harley Davidson comes from the eleventh generation and is the result of a collaboration between Ford and Harley Davidson. This special edition was offered for the tenth generation as well. Furthermore, this truck comes with the Saleen supercharger package, making it one heck of a ride to own and drive.
Jack Roush found his niche as an engine development engineer at the Ford Motor Company. A few years later, his entrepreneurial spirit led him to establish his own company called Roush Performance Engineering. With the experience he gained, he and his talented team developed state-of-the-art muscle cars that combine world-class handling with Detroit-born grunt. Not long after, his efforts sparked an overwhelming demand for his engines and components. What we have here is a 2017 Ford Mustang GT Roush Stage 3, a solid example of what Roush is capable of. According to them, you can experience raw power and meticulous handling and braking capabilities with this car. It is located in Franklin, Massachusetts with just 23,014 miles on its clock.
Ford’s third generation Mustang was introduced in 1979, and quickly became known as the Fox Body, due to it sitting on Ford’s Fox platform. Designed by Jack Telnack, the third generation came as a coupe, convertible and hatchback. Thankfully, it retained the rear-wheel drive layout, despite Ford considering making it front-wheel drive during its early development days. While the Fox Body wasn’t immediately a hit, it’s considered a nice modern classic ʼStang these days. If you’re a Fox Body fan or eager to see what the Fox is like, here’s a nice 1985 Ford Mustang GT for sale. The car has seen plenty of work to make it better than factory, and comes with just 2,000 miles on the clock after a comprehensive overhaul that includes its interior, exterior, and mechanical bits.
