1956 Ford F100 Big Window Pickup, Fresh Restoration, Beautiful Red, IFS, 350/350

1956 Ford F-100 F100 Custom Cab BIG WINDOW

For Sale is my Beautiful, Vibrant Red, All Steel 1956 Ford F-100 BIG WINDOW. Ford only built 6200 of these BIG WINDOW models in 1956, and they are in high demand. She's not a "trailer queen", but a very nice "Driver", and is indeed a pleasure todrive. The truck has lived in California, New Mexico, and Arizona, and is rust-free. I purchased her in 2014 and began her second restoration. Five years after finishing the truck, my wife often says "That is just the cutest truck!" OK, enough gushing. Some will ask, "Why are you selling the truck?" We can't stop the clock, and I'm getting old. I'm downsizing and simplifying my life. Too many cars to maintain equals a lot of stress.Here are the details. When I say "NEW", that indicates something that's been replaced or added since I purchased the truckMECHANICAL HIGHLIGHTS:
