Gateway Classic Cars of Dallas is Introducing the bold and beautiful 1936 Ford Pickup LS Swapped Streetrod - a rare mix of style, power, and vintage charm! Dressed in a shining Mopar Hemi Orange, this unique pickup is a rare sight to behold on today's roads. It's not just any old Ford truck, as it packs a powerful 6.0L LQ9 EFI V8 engine under the hood, borrowed from a premium 2004 Escalade. With a classic Ford steel body combined with a GM motor, this vehicle does more than merely blend in.
The truck's exterior highlights include splendidly glowing LED headlights and dual exhaust tips. The Black Rock 16-inch wheels punctuate the vehicle's machismo. However, the most eye-catching feature is the classic flatbed with its extra-glossy real wood - good for showcasing your precious cargo. Plus, it comes with a proper tow hitch, making it a fully functional and practical pickup without causing any harm to the glossy lumber.
When it comes to the interior, style, and comfort are the watchwords. The dash, stylishly painted to match the external orange, houses a discreet AM/FM/CD stereo, offering a modern audio experience without compromising the vintage feel. A late-model cloth bench seat offers comfortable seating, and the sports steering wheel on a polished tilt column provides a sporty driving feel. The bright panel filled with sharp AutoMeter gauges adds a nice finish to the truck's interior.
The engine upgrade is something that deserves attention. It's a desirable LQ9 6.0-liter unit, promising higher power and smooth performance. With shorty heads feeding into the dual exhaust, the engine's sound is as thrilling as its power. The vehicle is designed for comfortable driving, equipped with an aluminum radiator with an electric fan, a 4L60E four-speed overdrive automatic transmission, and upgraded suspension. The truck also boasts a Mustang II-style independent front, caltracs traction bars on the rear leaf springs, QA1 coilovers, and a Ford Explorer rear diff.
The 1936 Ford Pickup LS Swapped Streetrod is not just a vehicle; it's a statement - a demonstration of how sleek upgrades can meet commercial-grade style. It's the embodiment of the finest engineering and design from Detroit's Big Three - all packaged into one stunning truck. So, if you're ready to turn heads everywhere you go, this is the truck for you!
