My new 1953 F-100 deluxe cab pickup
I found this truck at the Monroe WA swap meet a few weeks back as figured I couldn’t live without it. Very clean 1953 Deluxe cab F-100. Has the stock V8 and three speed on the column. Truck runs and drives nice. I had the whitewalls and ironically the green wheels I put on it when I got it home. Truck runs like a watch and everything works except the cigarette lighter. Shows just over 40,000 miles which I believe are original.

That's a nice straight truck. Lose the whitewalls though....

I kinda like the WW's, especially with the '41 caps. They aren't bad on a green truck.

Nice clean original '53. Great find. Detail the motor, put a little gray primer on the rusty areas, and drive the heck out of it.

Stunning! No matter the price, it was a deal. To quote "runs like a watch" .
White walls are perfect. Use it in good health.

Re: My new 1953 F-100 deluxe cab pickup
Since the truck has Montana plates did the seller haul it back to Spokane for you?

Great truck - love the "original" patina! WWs on a truck are either loved or hated - they look great on yours. Miles of smiles!

Re: My new 1953 F-100 deluxe cab pickup
holy smokes. Here's a good one. Our local Ford Dealer has banners strung up in the
show room showing the new 1953 Custom cab. I said to salesman I want two, one F100 and one F350. Now I get the space look: I said false advertising ain't it.. So why do they pump ya all up ........sam |

Re: My new 1953 F-100 deluxe cab pickup
Great truck!! Tailgate is in amazingly good shape. I was raised west side of Spokane and brother lives in Montana so seeing this truck is like going home. Thanks for sharing............
