A Simple 1966 Ford F-100 - Ferd - Four Wheeler Network
Sometimes when you first see a rig you think, That’s weird but I kind of like it. That’s what we thought the first time we saw Kris Foresee’s 1966 F-100. We remember seeing this simple yet effective—and different—truck for the first time at the... The bed looks like it has parts from an early Bronco grafted to the sides, but those bedsides are just the factory parts chopped down and trimmed to clear older 35-inch BFGs. Kris Foresee, a machinist from Frasier Park, California, has built one unique Ford. The thing works pretty well too, with flexy suspension that helps the vintage sheetmetal up and over the notches and rocks in front of the truck. This truck is not a polished show rig with tons of shop time, custom fab, and expensive parts to drool over. It is simple and effective, built of parts that make sense without adding too many gadgets, frivolous parts, or weight. This yields a truck that is well used, reliable, and well loved. What the truck also has is an engine that does what it needs to, a dead simple granny-geared transmission, axles that are just right for the tire size, two spares (used, with some life left in them), and good suspension.
