Ringbrothers has previewed the modified 1956 Ford
F-100 pickup truck it will debut at the SEMA show in a couple of weeks. The
famed custom car builder’s latest project, dubbed ‘Clem 101’, will retain most
of the standard body panels and use all-new underpinnings and technologies.
The car will be based around a boxed frame built
in-house and supporting a modern-day suspension system. Next, Ringbrothers will
install a 5.0-liter Coyote V8 crate engine that sends power to the rear wheels.
No performance figures have been announced but a horsepower figure beyond 500
seems probable.
Visual differences between Clem 101 and a
traditional F-100 will include a green paint scheme, lowered ride height,
flared wheel arches and aftermarket wheels.
