Vehicle Description
Professionally built in Ball, LA, at a cost of just under $350,000,
this one-off custom Ranchero comes with a build list and accounting
memo. It is powered by a 342ci Roush Performance V8 engine with a
300 shot of nitrous. The custom-built chassis has been
powder-coated and modified with a Fat Man front clip and Wilwood
disc brakes all around. The rear suspension is a custom-fabricated
4-link with a Ford 9" rear and Detroit TrueTrac helical gear
limited-slip differential. The transmission is a Tremec 5-speed
manual. Two custom-built electronically actuated doors hide the
nitrous bottles and the air tank in the bed. Inside is a pair of
custom 6-way leather bucket seats with a center console, and a
custom speaker enclosure behind the seats. The gauges were sent out
to be reproduced with custom gauges. The stereo includes a Pioneer
AVIC-N5 head unit, Diamond Audio speakers and Alpine amplifiers.
Under the hood a Be Cool cooling system was installed with
chrome-plated copper radiator hoses. The air conditioning was built
around a Classic Auto Air system with electric servos. Other
details include Painless wiring harness, Aeromotive fuel system
with braided stainless lines good for 1,000hp and Billet
Specialties Tru Trac serpentine belt system.
