1961 FORD F-100 CUSTOM PICKUP

Details

A 1961 Ford unibody big-window custom-built truck. Featured in Truckin' Magazine, this truck has undergone a no-expense-spared restoration and customization creating an ultra-cool custom out of a limited-production pickup. Only a handful were sold with the big rear window. The body had all the handles, emblems and gas door removed, and a custom roll pan installed. A steel 3-piece bed cover was fabricated to cover the gas tank, which was moved to the front of the bed. The custom paint job started

with Sunset Orange and dark silver two-tone, then mixed several oranges together to create the overlapping flames. The customizing did not stop with the body; the interior has custom door panels, dash, center console and Premier Audio stereo with a custom amplifier and speaker tucked behind the seat. A Hurricane air conditioner was installed, along with power windows, locks and tilt steering column with a LeCarra steering wheel. This custom pickup is powered by a 351ci 8-cylinder Windsor engine with Edelbrock intake, carburetor, Lunati cam and Hedman headers, all mated to a C6 automatic transmission. It’s equipped with a custom induction system, 9' rear end, custom upper and lower A-arms, front disc brakes and American Racing wheels. Out back the rear leaf springs were flipped under the axle to drop the rear.
