I love the idea of a car that does things that it was not intended to do, the concept of a sleeper!
As I have been on my LFS mod journey something became very clear, Ford builds some really classic cars, cars that have a special place in history and in many peoples hearts.
I have always had a soft spot for old Ford pickups or "bakkies" as we know them here in South Africa.
I came across a model based loosely on the 2nd Gen Ford F100. I love the boxy square look of it, its old school and its cool!
The plan for this mod is a big heavy pickup that has nice powerful 427 V8 under the hood, has good steering lock and big tyres.....basically enough power to overpower the tyres but enough grip for controlled slides, so a big fat drift vehicle. It should also make for a nice cruise vehicle and maybe even the odd street race.
I am not giving it slicks, this is a street car and will remain like that.
