Originally crafted in the '80s and freshly revitalized, this 1933 Ford Custom Pickup Hot Rod showcases the perfect blend of classic style and modern performance. The extensive restoration features new paint, interior, a fresh powerplant, and upgrades to the bed and suspension, making this steel-bodied stunner a head-turning standout.
Beneath its Porsche Red exterior, a powerful Chevrolet 350 crate V8 breathes life into this custom build. Equipped with a hydraulic roller cam, Holley 4-barrel carburetor, and HEI distributor, this setup ensures reliable power delivery and crisp throttle response. The engine stays cool with a custom aluminum radiator and electric cooling fan, while Block Hugger headers and Jet Hot coated dual exhaust with custom rear exit trumpets give it an aggressive yet refined rumble. Power is sent through a smooth-shifting TH350 automatic transmission, delivering torque to a Posi-traction rear end, making sure every bit of horsepower gets to the pavement.
Complementing the powertrain is a fully independent suspension setup. A Mustang II-style front suspension with coil-over shocks provides a comfortable yet responsive ride, while a Corvette independent rear suspension keeps the rear wheels planted under hard acceleration. The car rolls on staggered 17"" & 18"" Forged Split Spoke American Racing wheels, wrapped in radial tires, with power four-wheel disc brakes offering ample stopping power.
The exterior features a tastefully executed 4-inch chopped roof, a custom steel cab visor, and a shortened 10-inch bed. The steel body, bed, and running boards are paired with fiberglass front and rear fenders for weight savings. The Rootlieb 3-piece steel hood adds a vintage hot rod flair, while the custom louvered tailgate and Bitchin firewall complete the attention to detail. The bed showcases a stainless steel-trimmed wood floor with a custom wood stain and hidden fasteners for a clean, polished look.
Inside, a custom black leather bench seat is wrapped in premium Italian leather hides, offering luxurious comfort. The billet aluminum banjo-style steering wheel sits atop a tilt steering column, giving the driver an ideal position. The dash is outfitted with white-face Auto Meter gauges, keeping the driver well informed, while a Kenwood CD player with Bluetooth connectivity ensures you can enjoy modern tunes on the road. Custom-mounted speakers are integrated into the door panels, and a center console features convenient cup holders for added functionality.
This pickup's unique design is further highlighted by its custom valances that replace the traditional bumpers, giving it a clean, sleek look. The operational tilt-out windshield adds another touch of classic hot rod flair.
With its seamless blend of old-school charm and modern performance, this 1933 Ford Custom Pickup Hot Rod is a true masterpiece, perfect for cruising or showing off at your local car event.
