Vehicle Description
You know what's out there on the classic truck market, 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 paint,
custom interior, 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. It's about planning out multiple layers, and
understanding what has to be sprayed in the right order so that
many different shades of green becomes one cohesive masterpiece.
When that's complete, protect it with enough clearcoat that gives
this the green flames a show-worthy shine. You're so stunned by the
appearance you might forget how rare it is to find a vintage pickup
that hasn't been beaten up by decades as a workhorse. But while the
paintwork is the first thing you see, it's far from the only custom
touch. The bold hood has a custom scoop, the door handles are
shaved, and the suspension has been lowered for true custom build
appearance. This pickup is so bold it doesn't need chrome in the
usual places (that's why the grille and front bumper are painted.)
In fact, 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 shine, this Ford is wearing iconic
Cragar wheels.
If you loved the cool custom exterior, you're going to enjoy
popping the remote door openers to show off the inside. The same
bold green is used inside, 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 driver, with a custom green and chrome Lecarra
steering wheel, and beyond that there's a full set of gauges, which
is another clue to something very special under the hood.
On a build this cool, of course there are matching flames under the
hood, too! With this kind of show-stopping appearance in the engine
bay, it might be easy to overlook the motor. But that would be a
shame, because it's a desirable big block 348 cubic-inch V8. While
these were made famous for three-duces, this one goes one step
further with a dual-quad setup. Yes, 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 block, and it's even supported by trustworthy
components like an aluminum radiator. But you really don't think
about that too much, do you? No, 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 side, you'll
enjoy driving this custom pickup, thanks to features like the
independent front suspension, power steering, and the TH400
three-speed automatic transmission. There's 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 yourself, so if you don't hurry up, you might just be green
with envy. Call now!!
