Orange 1961 Ford E100 Low Miles 307 CID V8 4 Speed Automatic
This beauty is powered by a potent 307 CID V8 engine, which is equipped with a newly installed Holley Terminator-X fuel injection setup, ceramic coated shorty headers, and dual exhausts with stainless steel mufflers. It's kept cool by a large aluminum radiator, which is outfitted with a Spal electric fan. A 200R4 4-speed automatic slushbox handles the gear changes that send the power out back to the Corvette IRS rear end. In addition to the independent rear suspension, the front suspension was replaced with a fully adjustable Heidts setup, with tubular upper and lower control arms. This nifty truck's engine has also been moved backward from the original location, thanks to a custom boxed frame, thus giving it a near mid-engine layout. While having the engine so far back might make one think it's a corner-carver, it's not quite there yet - its center of gravity is a bit high for that; but it definitely handles better than most drivers are going to want to go, should they decide to explore its outer limits. The Heidts front suspension setup also allows for the use of power rack and pinion steering, so it's definitely easy to guide through the corners. It also stops well, thanks to its power 4-wheel disc brakes and meaty radial tires: sized 195/70R14's in front and 245/60R15's out back.
Once you've finished exploring all of the slick (and subtle) custom touches outside, you'll be itching to get inside. When you open the doors, you can't help but noticing how smoothly the doors latch and unlatch, and how crisply they close thanks to the Audi door latches that were installed. New weatherstripping and window felts keep things sealed (and quiet), so that occupants can enjoy the creature comforts inside. The interior has been well fitted with virtually all the creature comforts you could want in a truck like this, including heat and air conditioning, auto dimming inside mirror, power outside mirrors, intermittent wipers, iDidit cruise control, overhead console with outside temperature and compass heading, and automatic headlights. There's even a trick kill switch installed (we'll tell you what it is when you buy the truck)! The real smoked glass windows (no window film here!) helps keep the cool in, and heat and prying eyes out. A full set of AutoMeter gauges provide critical information to the driver, and a trans temp gauge is tucked away for the driver's eyes.
