We Modernised A 1950s Ford F100, RIDICULOUS RIDES
SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft Cars: BROTHERS Mike and Jim Ring from Spring Green, Wisconsin, are two custom car building legends known as The Ringbrothers. And one of their finest builds is a 1956 Ford F100 truck which took an impressive 3, 000 hours to build spread over seven months, costing 85, 000 in parts alone. Powering the truck is a 415horsepower 5. 0liter Ford Coyote crate motor which is a really good fit for the 50s pickup. Whilst this vehicle has the looks of a 50s masterpiece, The Ringbrothers are known for blending oldschool looks with modern technology. The 1956 Ford F100 is not short of up to date tech either it has power brakes, electronic transmission, fuel injection, air conditioning and even a bluetooth stereo system. The multiawardwinning car customizers state that the pickup truck is the most American vehicle around, and say they are excited to see what people are doing with these trucks.
