1958 FORD F100

“I’VE ALWAYS been a Ford fan and I went to a bloke in town who imports cars who had one coming in from the States and promised me the first look at it. The day I saw it, it was pouring rain and looking through a fence I said ‘I’m buying it!’. The paint was good but the tyres were shot, the bumpers were rusty and the interior was a dog’s breakfast so I fixed all of those things up. I’ve also done a whole heap of work to the engine to get it running properly. Don’t know if it’s a 390ci or a 428ci and the only way to know is to pull it down, but it’s running beautifully now. A mate was at the Pomona swap meet in the US and found a set of extractors for this so he got them and we put a new exhaust system on. Now I can just enjoy driving it.”
