One owner, 91 years old, drives it himself
A 91-year-old man bought this 1954 Ford F-100 new, calls it his baby, and drives it. It came in for an alignment. It has never been restored. The tech made a list of what's original: the single-barrel carburetor, the 6-volt electrical system, the brass tank radiator. The shocks and steering stabilizer are new, and the paint isn't factory. The odometer read somewhere around 54,000, but it can't show 100,000, so nobody knows how many times it has rolled over. Hanging off the radiator drain tube on baling wire is an antifreeze catch can made from a Pepsi can.
His son and grandson have both sworn never to sell it.
