I recently purchased a 1954 Ford F100 standard cab 223, 3 speed 6 volt truck from Fast Lane Classic Cars in Missouri. By history it had undergone a frame off restoration some years ago. I'm guessing 15-20 based on the photo album that came with it. After restoration it was used for some advertising and as a show truck until it was stored for a number of years. It is in very sound mechanical condition but needed a second round of little items like getting all the lighting working, some cosmetic interior repairs, etc. It has been to the shop once for carb and brake rebuild. Carb rebuilt with ethanol resistant parts. I drive to to work once a week and run it up to temperature once a week in between. Always wanted an old truck. Didn't ask much about this one before purchasing. Got the vintage truck fever when I saw it. Has been a ton of fun. Back in the day I had a new 1973 F100 short bed that I drove for about ten years. Wish I never sold it.

Welcome
Nice old truck!

Welcome aboard! I do like that pickup.
Brother in Madrid you say? Some friends around here and myself have been threatening to drive our model A's up there for a few years now, and go through the museum there.

Welcome to FTF, it's great to have you!!

That is a beautiful truck, was that a factory color option?

Welcome! That's a nice old rig you picked up.

Welcome to FTF! Beautiful vintage Ford!

I'm still learning alot about this truck. That has been the fun part. I think the blue is a ford color "glacier blue". Not sure about the tan

Beautiful truck!

You should do it. Find a pretty day. Pretty ride out there from ABQ. Funky little coffee shop to check out. The mine shaft and museum are cool. Great short day trip.
