This is a nice one!

And it runs! I'm curious to see what it ends up going for.

wow! can't believe he is only starting at $1,500, something like that would sell easily in Aussie for at least $15,000.

Notice the gauge in the dash next to the instrument panel? I'm curious if thats an add on or a factory piece. I've seen a few stock mid fifties trucks with a gauge there, Even my donor has one.

This is a nice one!

Unmolested, ready to drive as is. What's the gauge for? Oil Pressure? I have never seen a gauge in the dash like that.

It's been a long time since I had one, but I think it's a vacuum gauge? (Called a mileage meter or something)

I think "STARTING AT" are the key words...reserve isn't met at $3150, it rather depends on what his reserve is. Might BE $15,000. I'll be watching it - it is a rather nice "survivor".

I agree its in nice shape for someting to start with but the thought thta it woud go for 15K is nuts. It'll likely sell near 5K is my guess.

You can't believe EVERYTHING you read...
"All original, the way it came out of the factory. Hasn’t been modified in any way."
If this is the case then it's the first 54 F100 I ever saw come out of the factory with a 55 grille and a 54 valence!
