  • This bright red 1956 Ford f100 came to our restoration shop for a body swap onto an Art Morrison GT Sport chassis. The build snowballed into a long to short bed conversion, and eventually a full re-spray.
    The truck is now an amazing driver with the combination of the AME chassis and the 495hp LS3 engine. Additional components include Forgeline wheels with Wilwood disc brakes, Dakota Digital gauges, and Vintage Air.
    You can see the truck's full build on our website at: metalworksclassics.com/portfo...

    This is the pickup I drove during my high school days. I could only dream of having one as nice as this one. Great work!

    Sharp truck, you can't go wrong with red, bad little ride, those Flowmasters sound good, I know this truck will haul the mail, you guys do amazing work, all top shelf work, also that grille looks great, thanks for sharing

    At least you got a chrome grille...but you didn't go with one piece door glass...the customer made the choice I suppose. Seeing all those rust holes on an apparently pristine truck makes me want to wait until Dynacorn offers brand new cabs , fenders , hoods and boxes.

    Add a great looking fill cap in the right rear fender so fuel tanks in the rear. Why didn’t the owner want you to plug the fill hole in the cab.?

    Very nicely done
    Why wasn't the old gas filler hole filled, instead of that plug?

    Curious about what brand/length of the steering column that was used in this build ?

    Why not a Coyote 5.0 and keep it FORD

    It would have been cooler to keep the Y block😁

      I know! Can’t believe someone had all that work done and put an LS under the hood. Any Ford V8 would be way cooler.

    You guys did good work but it was a waste of a good stock truck on whoever wanted the work done. It was a decent truck coming into this build that didn't have to be messed with to be a nice driver. If anything restomods should be made from junkyard vehicles that have been stripped of their original components. It's just better for everybody that way.

      Couldn't agree more. I've seen so many of the 53-56 350/250 long beds turned into short bed f100s it doesn't make any sense to me. the longbeds are gonna be worth big money some day compared to the dime a dozen lowered kit bashed restomod nightmares.

      @@none-yabizniz187 I own 3 classic trucks, all of which are long beds, 2 step sides and one Fleetside. Never looked twice about them being a long bed, call me weird but I don't see the huge draw of the short bed. I like to put my classic trucks back to work a little bit, because after all that's what they were built for. And a long bed makes it that much easier.
