\"front-side<\/a><\/p>\n

Harris Auto & Fabrication<\/a> built this 1966 Ford F-250 at their company in Westerville, Ohio. Under the hood sits a 7.3 L Godzilla V8 producing 550 hp (404 kW). The big-block motor is paired to a six-speed automatic transmission. From there torque is sent to a 8.8-inch rear end with an Eaton Truetrac limited-slip differential and 3.55 ratio. The powertrain is supported by a modified factory chassis with a modified Crown Vic front suspension, Mustang S550 electric power steering, and custom tubular control arms. In the back is a custom 4-link suspension. Each corner are QA1 coilovers and disc brakes. The classic body is covered in Wimbledon White accented by a black roof and Detroit Steel 20-inch wheels wearing Nitto NT555 tires. The truck still retains the factory bedside-mounted toolbox. The pickup will be auctioned at Mecum<\/a> in October in Dallas\/Fort Worth. <\/p>\n
