A mashup this 1956 Ford F-100 combines some of the best of both Ford and Chevrolet to make one badass truck. Undergoing a frame-off restoration the Ford was give a custom chassis to accommodate the addition of a C6 Corvette suspension and utilize a Camaro rear differential and custom axels.
Staying true to its Ford lineage, the ’58 features a Mustang 5.0 Coyote engine and 6R80 automatic transmission giving it a modern touch. One that resonates throughout the rest of the truck’s components, which according to the listing include, “shaved turn signals and incorporated into the headlights, roll pans front and rear, rounded door corners, filled-in drip rails, Kindig-It door handles, 3″ wider rear fenders, smooth running boards, smooth tailgate, tubbed bed, power one-piece door glass and LED taillights.”
This modern twist on a classic will cross the block at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, AZ this coming January.
