The body was repainted in black during the refurbishment. Features include a steel bed, chrome side mirrors, driving lights, chrome bumpers, a slatted grille, a driver-side wiper, and running boards with Ford-branded step plates.

Black-painted 16″ wheels wear chrome hubcaps and trim rings along with staggered 6.5″ front and 7.5″ rear Diamondback Auburn Deluxe white-wall tires, and a matching spare is mounted to the passenger side of the bed. Stopping power is provided by drum brakes all around. The front suspension was fitted with shocks while the rear maintains a transverse leaf spring setup with lever shocks.
The refurbished cab features a bench seat upholstered in green vinyl along with a contrasting black metal dashboard and door panels. Equipment includes a Ford-branded heater box mounted above the passenger footwell as well as a floor-mounted gear shifter, crank windows, a dome light, and a glove compartment.
Instrumentation includes a central speedometer with gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and amperage. An aftermarket tachometer and coolant temperature gauge have been installed on the lower dashboard. The five-digit odometer shows 38k miles, approximately 2k of which were added during current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 221ci flathead V8 was removed and repainted before being overhauled under prior ownership. Service performed during current ownership is said to have included replacing the distributor, coil, spark plugs, cloth ignition wires, generator, starter, fuel pump, and water pump. An oil change was completed in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed manual transmission and a 4.11:1 rear gear. The chassis and underbody components are said to have been coated in POR-15 material during the refurbishment, and clutch components were replaced during current ownership. Corrosion is present on the underbody.
The VIN stamping has been partially worn off and can be seen above.
