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 415-horsepower 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 old-school 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 multi-award-winning 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.
