Nope, he dosen't. It's an F-100. In fact, that was the first year of the F-100. They were F-1s before that.

53 was the last year for the flathead V8. Does he have that or the OHV 6?

Yep, 1953 was first year of the F-100. All body parts are identical with the 1954 and 1955, except the grille. The first OHV V8 was in 1954, so they had different V8s. The 1956 used teh same beds and all fenders, but the cab was different. Had a wrap around windshield.

is two tone green a factory option for that year?

This reminds me of the doctor taking the pins out of my hand with a hand drill saying this wont hurt much.
