Stunning 1956 Ford F-100: Mild Custom Done Right
Daily Slideshow: Wild custom trucks get all the press, but this 1956 Ford F-100 proves that you don't have to do much to make them cool.
Mild is Beautiful
Wild, over-the-top custom Ford trucks are typically the ones that get all the press in big-time publications. These are the trucks that get people's attention, of course, and win awards at all the major shows. But truthfully, early Ford trucks are so awesome as is that we're not so sure you have to chop them up to make them cool. Case in point - this awesome, mostly stock '56 F-100 we found over at Mecum Auctions.
Clean Enough to Eat off Of
Pop the hood, and you'll find one of the most sanitary engine bays you'll ever lay eyes on. The original 272 V8 is present and accounted for, and looking rather nice covered in green paint with silver valve covers. It's so clean in here that you'll probably be cursing those surprise pop up thunderstorms if you're ever out driving in one.
