"Pegysu"     1956 Ford F100

Introduction / Overview: 1956 F100 Named Pegysu. I'm a Buddy Holly fan. I wanted the truck to be a traditional custom. Its been done since '96 and we drive it everywhere we go. It was the first frame off vehicle I've ever done and learned alot on. I learned how to subframe on this truck cause I chose a '76 Nova subframe. I used a '66 F100 9" Ford rearend. Its got a SBC with a 350 turbo trans. Thats what I had when I built it at the time in spare parts. Since then, I've got a 351W to put in it, but hate to tear it down for the swap, but someday.............

Drivetrain: '88 305 SBC with a '75 350 Turbo trans and a 9" Ford rearend
