You know whats out there on the classic truck marketand#44; so make sure you take some serious time to look over the details of this very custom 1961 Ford F-100. The amount of time and money that it would take to have just have one of the elements like the amazing paintand#44; custom interiorand#44; or the performance built V8 would eat away at your budget past the affordable price that this total custom build can be picked up already for today. The only way to get paint this amazing is by time intensive labor with a true artist. Its about planning out multiple layersand#44; and understanding what has to be sprayed in the right order so that many different shades of green becomes one cohesive masterpiece. When thats completeand#44; protect it with enough clearcoat that gives this the green flames a show-worthy shine. Youre so stunned by the appearance you might forget how rare it is to find a vintage pickup that hasnt been beaten up by decades as a workhorse. But while the paintwork is the first thing you seeand#44; its far from the only custom touch. The bold hood has a custom scoopand#44; the door handles are shavedand#44; and the suspension has been lowered for true custom build appearance. This pickup is so bold it doesnt need chrome in the usual places (thats why the grille and front bumper are painted.) In factand#44; this one utilizes most of its brightwork on the diamond plating inside the custom truck bed. But just in case people need to see a little extra hot rod shineand#44; this Ford is wearing iconic Cragar wheels. If you loved the cool custom exteriorand#44; youre going to enjoy popping the remote door openers to show off the inside. The same bold green is used insideand#44; and even the flames return on the door panels! Someone spent plenty of time and money planning this design out because the diamond plating continues on the kick panels and on the dash where the power window and AM/FM/CD/aux stereo controls are mounted to tie the whole thing together. This custom pickup provides serious comfort for two with late-model bucket seats and a custom cup holder center console in between. But the best features are reserved for the driverand#44; with a custom green and chrome Lecarra steering wheeland#44; and beyond that theres a full set of gaugesand#44; which is another clue to something very special under the hood. On a build this cooland#44; of course there are matching flames under the hoodand#44; too! With this kind of show-stopping appearance in the engine bayand#44; it might be easy to overlook the motor. But that would be a shameand#44; because its a desirable big block 348 cubic-inch V8. While these were made famous for three-ducesand#44; this one goes one step further with a dual-quad setup. Yesand#44; mounted on that performance aluminum intake are dual Edelbrock four-barrel carburetors. The motor is dressed nicely with bright fined aluminum valve covers and a Chevy orange blockand#44; and its even supported by trustworthy components like an aluminum radiator. But you really dont think about that too muchand#44; do you? Noand#44; because you were already sold on the serious power and the growl coming from the dual exhaust. But for those of you who do actually look at the practical sideand#44; youll enjoy driving this custom pickupand#44; thanks to features like the independent front suspensionand#44; power steeringand#44; and the TH400 three-speed automatic transmission. Theres even the added stopping power of four-wheel power disc brakes. Green is truly the name of the game with this pickup. It will cost you far less greenbacks to pick this one up than if you had it built yourselfand#44; so if you dont hurry upand#44; you might just be green with envy. Call now!! |
