But this roadster pickup also doesnt lose its classic heritage. Its nicely integrated into the details. For example this may have a hot rod look with the larger rear tires but the full package utilizes classic red steelies and two-piece trim. The real wood side stakes on the truck bed are truly vintage and they are also pleasing to the eye as a nice step-down transition between the cab and bed. And since the early F-Series trucks had this unique grille we love that its such a shining centerpiece against the dark blue front end.The interior is a full custom setup with the kind of saddle leather that would make a new F-150 King Ranch jealous.
