1953 Fords
The 1953 Ford line of cars and trucks were a breakthrough advancement in auto technology. The new front end suspensions, choice of design and quality in their cars, as well as style and design, were big sellers for consumers. These Historical Ford Reels break down the car by showcasing their engines, design, durability, capacity, and more.
Taken From Wikipedia
"The long-lived Flathead V8 engine was replaced for 1954 by a 239 cubic inch overhead valve Y-block unit, marking the end of an era. This engine produced 130 hp (97 kW) with a 2-barrel carburetor. An impressive 160 hp (119 kW) 256 C.I. version with a Holley four-barrel was available in the official-use-only law enforcement model. The six-cylinder was up to 223 cu in (3.7 L) and now produced 115 hp.[8] Another new addition was the "Crestline Skyliner" 2-door hardtop, which featured an acrylic glass panel over the front half of the roof. Also added was the new "Astra-Dial Control panel" speedometer, which has a clear, plastic covering on the top, which let sunlight illuminate it in the day-time.[9] New power accessories included a four-way power front seat.[2] The "woody" Country Squire wagon now used artificial fiberglass panels but remained the most-expensive Ford.” .

I used one on the farm during the seventys, tough truck.
I got one of those 53 f100 it's 1 owner has only 70k with flathead v8. Truck is solid no rust. Wouldn't sell it for no amount. Those trucks were built well lots of steel.
That truck looks just like the '53 I drove to school in the late 60s. That trouble free flathead and low geared drivetrain wouldn't win a drag race, but I wish I had kept it after few years of marriage.
I miss those side vent windows on cars and trucks.
They should make a comeback but power. Turn a knob to determine what angle you want them at
@@lordowl3533
Actually some were power on cars like Lincolns and Cadillacs back then.
It would be great to see them back.
That’s one reason I keep my 1985 F150 Lariat
@@rodrogers6895 I'm restoring a 1982 SWB f150 and it's got them but they're manual
They were a great feature. You could angle it so the air blew right on you, or close it slightly to exhaust sir, without the tumbling turbulence of modern cars.
Man! What comfort!
Man I used to have that same truck back in the late 1970s
How old were you?
I was 15 when I purchased it. My dad and I towed it home.
@@RC-Flight How was traffic situation back then?
No problem I lived in the country on a back road.
@@RC-Flight Best truck for today like Nissan Frontier money range?
It's "driverised". I'm buyinized.
Wish companies still made economy trucks.
Ford Maverick pick up starts under 20 grand
@@jj-eo7bj wow, a truck for the price of house! That's economy.
@@pyroparagon8945 $20k for a house? Where do you live, Detroit?
@@rubberduck2649 Anywhere in the rural USA
I miss my 56 F-100.
Learned to drive in one of those!
My dad was involved in oil exploration in the 50’s, bought a 53 panel and converted it into a camper. The truck visited Canada to Mexico on job locations, no idea how many miles it had traveled. Steering gear box failed in 61, replacement not available. Only brakes and clutch had been replaced. She was a tough bugger.
A real truck
I wish the old school pickup trucks were the rage now instead of these NASCAR behemoths that you almost need a CDL to drive. Simple, affordable, comfortable and fun to drive. I would have no problem getting into one of these and driving all the old US routes coast to coast and border to border. Make mine sky blue just like the one in the add and watch out for the biggest smile going down the road
I agree with you. Unfortunately affordable is no longer part of the American Dream.
Get a job lazy fuc
@@kyboy5
Get a job????
I’ve been working somehow somewhere without a break since 1968!!!
Asswipe
@@Retired88M and you can't afford a new truck.. worked since 1968 to be a bum
@@kyboy5 I may be a bum but it’s a hell of a lot better than being an asswipe Trumplican like you have the attitude
My friend had a 1954 ford truck in 1974 he drove to school everyday... i just loved that truck...
Bet you puffed on his meat cigrit a time or two
Had one for 9 years. It was cool: 302, C-4.
I had a '66 Chevy C10 like this-6 cyl/3 on the column, manual choke,1 speed wipers,no radio, power steering, manual brakes, not even a sun visor for the passenger. Awesome truck.
Even then Ford Trucks were King of the Road
Back when a pickup truck wasn't as big as a Kenworth.
Tundras are the worst. They're almost as big as an f-250 but they're a half ton.
@@lordowl3533 Tundras have grown over the years. I’m pretty sure the bodies on the new Tacoma’s are bigger than the old Tundras.
@@appalachiangunman9589 they're pretty close. The big thing about tundras though is how long the back seat area is in the crew cabs. Like if you're Shaq's height, I'm pretty sure you'd still have plenty of leg room. The extended cab tundras have about as much backseat room as a crew cab ram, so that makes them look even bigger. It doesn't help that the front end of them gets taller and flatter on the front each redesign. I can confirm that the current generation of tundras are bigger than a 2007 f250 4x4 crew cab, and the cab is actually longer on the tundra, but it'd be interesting to see a new Tacoma next to an old tundra, and then a new tundra next to an old tundra.
thats comfort....
I owned a 1953 it was similar in the cab comfort to my 95. F150. Same seat padding best two sofas i ever owned . I gave my 53 to my brother and he put a bronco chassis under it. If my 95 f150 ever dies. I’m putting the seat in my living room It’s the only seat i can sit on the that doesn’t Affect my sciatica.
Push button handle! What will they think of next!
Wireless all-door locking via a key fob.
Wow, foam seat cushions at extra cost, now that's innovative!
Now, in late ‘21, we have a foam shortage and can’t make enough new cars. Wow, we’re so much more advanced, aren’t we? 🤦♀️
@@catlady8324 what are you talking about they can’t make many new cars cause there’s a chip shortage 💀
the fact that safety was even mentioned 😂😂
Amazing... The technology!
What happened to the TRUCK? Plain with a purpose. I miss manual trannies, simple interiors, and basic colors. Even the imports lost it's flare. I miss my Grandpa's peanut butter brown Datsun with the long cargo bed.
I miss the CD player....
Wish they would advertise at us like this again.
Padded seats,,, for a small extra charge!!!
I used to have a1954 very similar.
Think Ford first
Fast forward to 2021 and it’s still a hum dinger.
Barrett Jackson was selling them for 300,000+ in the Spring this year. 🤠
I really miss my '55.
"PUSH BUTTON HANDLE"🤯
Do you think there still in stock
👍👍👍
When you block the video with solicitation ads it tells viewers the video was not worth watching.
Im on my way to the dealer hope theres a few left in the lot
Does It Have an AM Radio?
That's extra...
No heater, either...extra.
Not in 1953. In the '40's and '50's, trucks were very spartan and utilitarian, especially the economy models. The truck in this video probably had rubber floor mats instead of carpeting as well.
Nope..wind up his masters voice record player....extra cost, of course
All those extra comforts for around 1,900 dollars
É uma relíquia!!! 😷😷😷
Ford need a spokesman like this again. Last time I went car shopping , all I heard was F this and F that , and another guy playing catch the nickels off his elbow. No SALE here.....
Tell ya what...throw in that extra foam rubber in the seat and a case of Trop Arctic 10W40 motor awl for free and you got yourself a deal.
Meanwhile Toyoda-san was still pissing into rice paddies…
😂😀😳😅🐸🐵
Back when safety glass just ment a lot more glass.
A 15 second sit down test? I'm takin' that thing out on the road bub. Now stop yer yappin' toss me them keys and I'll tell ya what I think of her when I get back ya hear?
Sit down test? take it a road test My dad Liked his Chevy's
Bela y fina
And in many situations you could fix it !
Back then brand new they were $1,200.
Same truck today is 50K.
The grandfather of the modern pickup. I think this is the truck Fred Sanford drove on the TV show "Sanford and Son"
Ok I'll take 1 ,do you have 1 in all black?
Um espetáculo
bonita caminhonete
Are the gas tanks in the cab behind the seat in this model?
Yep!
No they are under the cab
Built like a tank...
Also handle like a tank...
@@cavekritter1 True...haha.
They would photo three men in the front seat who were built like horse jockeys.
The width and headroom were there, but no legroom.
Most people back then weren’t overweight hence why nowadays vehicles are made to accommodate the extra pounds that people weigh today.
When trucks looked, ran and worked like trucks instead of these four door station wagon trucks out on the market today. The new ones of today are nothing but pure junk and they look like junk to.
COMES FROM DAYS WHEN IF YOU SEEN ONE COMING DOWN THENROAD YOU KNEW IT WAS BEING DRIVEN BY A "WORKING MAN".YOU BOUGHT ONE YOU THOUGHT WAS TOUGH AND RELIABLE NEVER LET YA DOWN WHEN WORK WAS NEEDED DOING.
what guy did not tell ya was that everything on the damn thing was extra.
Front and rear bumpers painted extra and if chrome more than weeks pay..cigarette lighter extra. Inside overhead light extra.
Better set of tires than factory double cost of old tires. Hubcaps extra. Interior or exterior mirrors extra..clear plastic seat covers cost more than better tires.. enough front seat room to be comfortable during sex.
Вот откуда скамуниздили кабину газ 53?
no heated seats?
That is why they increased the glass area, park the truck in the Sun and seat will heat up in no time...
My rip husband loving🍟
Yea I would if I can afford it ?? Hmm truck like that 2021. 40 k. ??
Hmmmm. Websters Dictionary is missing driverized. Wonder how many people started using that would after that commercial. And I never heard someone say what a comfortable window. Too funny.
Now you know the rest of the story!
Never cracked up over Paul Harvey, hated him and his screechy voice.
@@danbasta3677 Everyone is entitled to there own opinion.
Hehe.for 3 men!!!.maaaan.women really didn't have a chance back then!!!
Excelente propaganda Bravo Bravo Bravo 👏👏👏👏
I’m 6’4 it’s made for a child😂
Better than today's shit fords
Ok, it can seat 3 men but can it seat 3 women? What about 1 transgender, an assexual and a gay guy? Can it accommodate them?
Yes
@@PhoenixT1953 Nice! It is very spacious, then.
Pretty crap cars for a decent world. We now have good cars in a really crap world.
