WE ALL dream of a cool daily driver that is reliable, practical and fast, but building something to tick all those boxes ain’t easy. Street Machine scribe and noted deep thinker Iain ‘Marv’ Kelly has a radical solution with his vision for a pro-touring daily: this audacious bumpside F100.
To make it easier to incorporate modern smarts in an old shell, Iain’s idea is to merge two of FoMoCo’s most divergent models. “I’d start with a 1967-72 bumpside F100 and a smashed Mustang GT S550, fit the independent front and rear suspension cradles from the Mustang, and then box the remaining chassis in,” says Marv. “The 5.0-litre Coyote and six-speed manual would get the nod, as would a Truetrac in the diff. Plus I’d add coil-over suspension, fat sway-bars, big brakes off a Shelby model, and maybe even a Harrop 2650 blower.”
