Dave And Connie Babiak's '55 Ford F-100
A lot of us grow up with a picture of a truck in our minds that has stuck out over the years. If we had the time and money we would build it. Dave Babiak was no exception. Since high school he had always liked the pickups of the '50s, especially F-100s. Like many of us, however, Dave lead a busy life; a stint in the Navy and 38 years working for UPS didn't give him much time to build his dream truck. All that hard work paid off after a visit to the F-100 Supernationals in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, in 2004. Dave was motivated and inspired to begin his search for his truck. He made an offer on a '55 Ford F-100 that he had seen in the Old Car Traders. That bid was followed by many more and after several months with no deal, Dave began to look elsewhere. But right when he was heading out the door to purchase another project, the seller called, saying if Dave was still interested the F-100 was his, and so the project started. The F-100 had seen farm duty in the high desert of Santa Fe, New Mexico, and was in very good condition. The only major parts he needed to replace were the front fenders and the front panel of the bed.
