1951 Ford F100 “Five Star Cab” Pickup TruckFuzzy Dice Auto Sales has up for auction a hidden treasure estate vehicle! This is a classic 1951 Ford F100 Flat Head V8 Pick Up Truck that belonged to the very well known stock car racer, Dick Fleck.Fleck bought this truck new and kept it until he passed away recently in 2013. We purchased it from the family in an estate sale. Dick Fleck lived in Pennsylvania and raced stock cars through-out the east coast and Florida. In a book that he wrote he describes his trips and how he towed his stock car to all the events with his 1951 Pickup Truck. The very same pick up that you see here for auction! The book and other documents go with the truck.When he bought the truck it was blue. Disliking the color, he had it painted red three years later and also had the interior done to match the car. So the paint and interior were actually re-done 59 years ago! The lacquered paint still shines and the interior is presentable. The all steel body is totally rust free but as expected there are blemishes in the body and paint. Most notably are scuffs and some areas of fading on the fenders. These defects are depicted in the photos. A re-paint would make her look new, but if I owned her I’d leave it just as you see it with all its history.The truck still has its original AM radio and heater that are both still functional. It’s also equipped with working windshield wipers, turn signals and a battery shut off switch. Here are some of the recent updates we preformed; Brand new Gas Tank, New Fuel Lines, New Brake Hoses, New Wheel Cylinders, New 6 Volt Battery, New Wiper Blades.Only 18 Miles on the totally rebuilt, bored .040 over, v8 motor with adjustable lifters, Mercury heads and a rebuilt carb and fuel pump. The truck runs quiet, smooth and peppy. She goes straight down the road and stops on a dime. The wooden truck bed was covered with steel flooring many years ago, but as you will see pictured the original wood remains. This is a very nice example of a 1951 Ford truck that I would not hesitate driving anywhere and often. The 51’ Ford F100 half -ton is a widely sought after vehicle and are increasingly becoming hard to fine. Do not miss out on this classic vehicle and its interesting history. The photographs show the good and the not so good. Please don’t hesitate to ask for any additional pictures and/or information. We now have this excellent truck displayed on our lot for sale locally as well, and as expected the lookers are flying in! So get your bids in right away if you are interested as not to miss out on it! Thank you and best of luck bidding!
