US 1933 Ford Pickup National Award Winning Steel Pickup 383/405 HP Stroker V8 TH350 A/C Leather Year: 1933 Type of vehicle title: Clear Primary color: Purple Mileage: 3358 Transmission type: 3 Speed Automatic Engine: 383 V8 Interior color: Saddle Vehicle Info Watching award-winning customs roll through our RK Motors Charlotte showroom never gets old. But sometimes we get the feeling that the modern street rod movement has become more about flash and less about substance. After all. hot rod culture started with guys who drove their cars out of necessity. and showed them out of desire. This razor-sharp Ford. a direct result of what happens when $250K in resources meets years of specialized labor. is a prime example of that 'built-to-cruise' mentality. And if you're a discerning rodder who's looking for a cool classic that offers more than shiny chrome and bright paint. it's your one-way ticket to bigger and better things!When building a first class show stopper you have to start with an excellent foundation; and in the world of modern street rodding. it doesn't get much better than an all-steel fuselage. Any experienced builder will tell you traditional steel creates a tight and reliable custom that. unlike most resins. retains ALL of its original lines. functional parts and structural integrity. And this '33 Ford pickup. which took nine years to complete. looks absolutely stunning under a rich coat of trick PPG Ocean Chameleon paint. The truck's solid body displays smooth vertical panels and an arrow straight profile that would give any high dollar garage queen a serious run for its money. And everything. from its electric doors to its electric tonneau. has been painstakingly engineered into one clean. completely sorted custom. Naturally. a body that nice deserves to be seen and celebrated to the highest extent. so its color shifting basecoat was sealed in glossy clear and buffed to a fantastic shine. And today. after roughly 2. 00 miles of carefully planned road time. this awesome Ford is an excellent combination of old school style and trophy winning prowess!Everything on this polished and themed creation is exceptionally well-done. and the truck has just the right amount of detail to turn heads and create a lasting impression. At the front of its body. a 1933-branded frame hangs a simple chrome bumper below a stainless grille. a stainless headlight bar and two modern combination headlights. At the top of that grille. a flamed Rootlieb hood runs to a 3-inch chopped and custom airbrushed greenhouse that's cleared by small. hidden windshield wipers. At the sides of that greenhouse. a characteristically clean profile features polished mirrors. suicide doors and body-matched running boards. And at the back of that profile. a steel. custom airbrushed bed cover folds over wood planks. LED tail lights and massive MBRP exhaust tips. There's certainly no mistaking a classic Ford shape. but this pickup has an identity all its own thanks to a cohesive theme. careful workmanship and acute attention to detail. Fold this Ford's hood and you'll find a mean. 383 cubic inch Chevrolet V8 that. thanks to the experts at BluePrint Engines. spins a dyno-proven 405 horsepower into 440 lb. /ft. of tire twisting torque. At the top of that body-matched small block. a polished air cleaner forces wind into a coated Edelbrock carburetor. At the base of that carburetor. a chrome Edelbrock intake hangs an aftermarket distributor between Ron Francis wiring and Accel Extreme 9000 cables. At the base of those cables. polished valve covers reflect a nice set of coated block hugger headers. And in front of those headers. billet pulleys spin a chrome alternator. chrome water pump and Hot Rod air conditioning behind a large puller fan and beefy Walker radiator. Aesthetically. both the monochromatic mill and its assortment of bright accessories seem right at home inside their carefully insulated frame. And details like polished tanks. polished fuel components and a mirrored firewall ensure this truck looks every bit as good as it runs. Under this Ford's well-planned and professionally executed powerplant you'll find a whole catalogue of custom performance parts which mix great aesthetics with excellent driving dynamics. The 383's power flows from a rebuilt Turbo-Hydramatic 350 to a polished aluminum driveshaft and body-matched Ford 9-inch that's fitted with Strange axles. That familiar drivetrain pushes a heavily modified frame on a 4-bar rear suspension. which benefits from high quality coil-over-shocks. Tracking is provided by a Heidts front suspension and lucid rack-and-pinion steering. Quick stops are a cinch thanks to a full outfit of polished Wilwood disc brakes. At the center of the floor. polished stainless exhaust breathes through polished. glasspack-style mufflers. At the corners of the chassis. impressive Billet Specialties wheels twist 215/45ZR17 Sumitomo HTRZs in front of 255/45ZR18 Sumitomo HTRZs. And everything. from the truck's mirrored cab floor to its custom stainless fuel tank. is well-planned. well executed and ready to work its magic!Installed by Dressler Upholstery of McAlisterville. Pennsylvania. this pickup's southwest themed interior looks straight out of a designer Hot Rod magazine. At the front of the cockpit. a body-matched dash hangs billet-seated Dakota Digital gauges between billet foot pedals. a tilt steering column and a polished Billet Specialties wheel. In front of that dash. a riveted seat hangs western-style buttons and an embossed "Cruisin" script above a modern. folding console. At the base of that seat. an Alpine CD player and multi-sound PA hover over thick carpet. leather-lined floor mats and a booted Lokar shifter. At the sides of the passengers. steer-branded panels are dotted with billet door handles. billet power window switches and authentic rope pulls. And above those panels. a custom headliner frames a sizeable Alpine display between small courtesy lamps and modern shoulder belts. Naturally. the story of this hot little street rod includes many awards and accolades. Here's a short list of the truck's major accomplishments:Goodguys Pro Pick at the 2008 Goodguys Great American Nationals in Long Pond. Pennsylvania (awarded before the truck was even complete)Goodguys Pro Pick at the 2010 Goodguys PPG Nationals in Columbus.
