Top 10 Cars We Would Love To Restomod

August 13, 2018

1953 Ford F-100

I challenge you to find anyone who’s into cars and trucks who doesn’t have at least a respect for the Ford F-100. These are trucks that have helped out everyday Americans for years, and looked good while doing it. They’re an ever popular choice for restomods because of just that. This is a 1953 truck in fantastic condition, with the mechanicals working just fine. The paint is still gorgeous, and while it could do with a fresh coat in a few spots, is of secondary concern.

If we spent $14500 on this, what would be the first thing to change? Taking inspiration from this beautiful truck, we’d drop it low to the ground and shear its running boards. The engine doesn’t need to be anything powerful, with something like a Ford Racing 302 being perfect. As this would be a cruiser, we’d again add air ride adjustable suspension, and update the interior while maintaining the original’s look. That means no new round gauges, but the seats and dash could be given new leather and vinyl coats. A sound system wouldn’t go amiss either. Legendary for a reason, restomodding an F-100 would be a dream.
