Beneath its beautifully preserved late-1960s Ford styling is a thoroughly modernized performance platform built around a supercharged 5.0-liter Coyote V8, six-speed automatic transmission, upgraded suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and modern comfort features. Finished in a striking two-tone red and cream combination, the truck retains the unmistakable character that makes the fifth-generation F-Series so desirable while sitting dramatically lower over a staggered set of polished wheels. Ranger badging, bright body-side moldings, chrome bumpers, a chrome grille, FORD tailgate lettering, and the contrasting cream roof give it a sophisticated factory-inspired appearance rather than an overly modified look. Supercharged Coyote Power At the center of the build is a Gen 1 Ford 5.0L Coyote V8 topped with a Roush water-to-air intercooled supercharger, with the combination rated at approximately 750 horsepower. A twin 340-LPH Aeromotive fuel system supplies the supercharged engine, while Power By The Hour engine and transmission management helps integrate the late-model drivetrain into the vintage Ford chassis. Behind the Coyote is Ford's 6R80 six-speed automatic transmission, giving this F-100 the benefit of modern gearing, highway manners, and significantly greater usability than a traditional three- or four-speed vintage automatic. The exhaust is handled by a custom 2.5-inch Borla system with an X-pipe, providing the aggressive sound expected from a blown Coyote without compromising the truck's refined character. Modernized Chassis & Suspension The chassis was designed to make use of the substantial increase in power rather than simply accommodate it. Up front, the truck utilizes an independent suspension with upper and lower control arms, along with electronic power rack-and-pinion steering. At the rear is a parallel four-link suspension, while coilovers at all four corners provide the low stance and more contemporary suspension control. Power is transferred through a Ford 8.8-inch rear axle equipped with 3.73:1 gearing and a Traction-Lok limited-slip differential. Stopping performance has likewise been upgraded with power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes. The photos also show upgraded front brake hardware and a remotely mounted electric cooling fan incorporated into the build. A mini rear frame step, raised bed floor, and modified inner wheelhouse arrangement allow the truck to achieve its aggressive static ride height while retaining a remarkably clean exterior profile. Wheels & Stance One of the strongest visual elements of the build is its wheel and tire combination. The polished multi-spoke billet-style wheels
