Patina Pete

Patina Pete

A 1972 F100 Explorer edition, reimagined with a brand new Aluminator 5.2XS crate motor, 6 speed manual trans, QA1 front and Rear suspension, GT350 exhaust, Dakota Dash, new upholstory and all the trimmings, minus a paint job and plus the character!


Picked up from a regretful sale in Victoria

 


Safely back at TidyRigs HQ


When you know, you know. A dent free dry bed!


Aluminator 52XS crate motor on custom engine mounts bolted to the QA1 cradle. The stock QA1 Coyote mounts interfere with the Fat Fender exhaust manifold.

Unboosted brakes, leg day on the daily.


Rim choice and offset will come later. Much fiddling with the QA1 ride height is needed.


QA1 Coilover's and rack-n-pinion will make this F100 a dreamboat to drive.

 


New custom bench seat will change the entire cab
