Bad Boy - Ford F-100 Pickup Restomod with 5.2 liter V8

This pickup is a bad boy from the picture book! The basis was actually a good 1956 Ford F-100 (FIN F10V6U52860) in the typical "worthless condition", but now there is practically a new car. And one with a huge Ford Racing GT350 Voodoo V8 under the hood, which is also used in the Mustang. And of course the engine is not in series. The main components are a special kooks-exhaust system, a Moshimoto cooler and some other minor changes are installed. The engine was coupled to a GT350 6-speed manual transmission and the pickup also has a pure rear-wheel drive. But after the body had been completely restored and painted in the evil Keystone KEY9801 Satin Black, the suspension from that time also had to believe it. Components from Cobra are now installed that provide the F-100 with independent suspension, which was invented at the time, but was not used in such vehicles.

And, of course, all other components that have to do with the power transmission of the engine have been strengthened accordingly and specially adapted for this vehicle. And in order for the power to hit the road, a new wheel set was also needed. Black aluminum rims with appropriate tires are installed and the fat slippers are covered with front and rear fenders widened by 3 inches (approx. 8 cm). The entire body has been redesigned and there was, for example, a new loading area, specially made Foot Rests and clean Tailgate. And in general, the pickup is only equipped with the most necessary decorations, which means that there are not even exterior mirrors or the typical indicators. And of course the cabin is also in top condition. There are Sports Seats with leather upholstery, a new center console with LEDs and Dakota digital displays, a headlining made of suede and the carpet, a decision was made in favor of a variant of Dynamat that should provide the best sound insulation.

This keeps the roaring V8 a little bit outside and at the same time you can enjoy the high-end audio system, which even has one Backup camera features. Other highlights of the cabin are stainless steel Sport steering wheel, a stainless steel pedals and a red stitching that can be found on all important components. Many small changes such as the modern headlights at the front and rear, the high-performance brake system with perforated brake discs and red-painted brake callipers, or the darkened discs on the side round off the unique piece based on an F-100 pickup. If we receive timely information on further changes, there is of course an update for this report. You will be informed if you simply use ours Feed subscribe to.
