We join Solomon from Ford Era on his 32-minute documented journey across the Good Guys Spring Nationals 2022 in beautiful Scottsdale, Arizona to witness all manner of Ford trucks from bagged and resting on the ground to over 12″ lifts with 40s
The first truck Solomon showcases is a resto-modded 1965/66. The truck features the bright orangey-red paint of the late ’90s F150 Lightnings.
The next mods he points out are the mirrors, door handles and interior off of those same 90s Lightnings. It is also mentioned, that the cab has been meticulously extended out to create a Mega Cab. It is definitely an interesting look.
The next few minutes follow Solomon into a fast-paced array of Ford trucks, including a 1977 Ford Econoline Château Weekender in absolutely mint condition. With a white exterior paint and brown and tan interior, this camper is unconditionally 1970s.
Throughout the rest of the video, Solomon continues to show us F100’s, F150s, Super-Duties and Customs, in all shapes, sizes, colors, options, and conditions. There are trucks that we could estimate at over $300,000, just as there are some that we have seen in better condition left on the side of the road, which may very well be the case, since some of these poorer situation trucks were being towed by their already done up counterpart.
Watching the video, reminds us of the potential for some of these trucks to become the heavy-duty working-class trucks they once were. It is a dream for a lot of us to restore an old badass truck. The only problem is to decide if it’s going to be two inches off the ground or on 40-inch mud tires.
What would you do?
Wonderful views on that!
