@PorterW1111 Is the build and fabrication process part of the appeal? If not there are a few dentside prerunners out there for sale.

The Gully Bros race a very well built 69 here in TX, I think its still for sale.
If you are interested I can make a couple calls.

The build and fab is definitely half the desire. Im a big "built not bought" fan. but thank you for the pics, the more i see how others have built them the better design i can get. thanks

Find a rolled gen1 raptor and plunk a f100 body onto it, bing a bang a boom.

This, wheelbase on a longbed f100/f150 is the same as a scab. All the drivability, comfort and tech of the gen 1 raptor under the earlier body. I looked very hard at doing this when I started my 78 build, but went street rod instead (How many gas swilling off roaders does one really need?)

Very well, really I just wanted something my crippled ass could comfortably get in and would take a paved corner...0630200908.jpg

Build the f100, learn to do it yourself and save a gob of cash, keep the raptor.

Its a tiny bit rusty because its been outside for a couple months and it's been rained on a couple times over the last couple years..it would only rain when I would need to pull it outside of the garage to do another project. But its in so cal so its not all that bad
