This 1969 Ford F100 Ranger XLT might look classic, but it’s actually a brand new truck from the ground up. With all-new sheet metal, chassis, drivetrain, and interior, this build gave us the opportunity to create a “modern” 1969 exactly the way we wanted.

In this video, we walk you through the entire build. From sourcing a new body to installing a Whipple-supercharged Coyote, custom chassis, and fully updated interior. This project pushed us to reimagine what’s possible when you’re not limited by the original truck.

We’re putting miles on it now and getting close to the finish line, stay tuned as this one comes fully together. Let us know if there's anything else you'd like to know about the build!
