Futuristic & Badass Custom Ford Trucks Heading to SEMA
Brantley Gilbert and SpeedKore’s F-150 Custom Pro-Touring Edition
SpeedKore Performance Group’s 2018 F-150 XLT short-bed pickup pushes Built Ford Tough design even further to communicate its ultra-performance pro-touring truck credentials. It all begins under the hood with the base 5.0-liter twin-cam V8 with Ford Performance supercharger, cold-air intake and side-exit exhaust. It’s backed up with MaxTrac Suspension front lowering spindles, Crown three-inch lowering springs and Brembo eight-piston big brakes. Traction and grip come from Pirelli Scorpion tires mounted to 22-inch HRE TR106 monoblock custom wheels.
A SpeedKore specialty, carbon fiber features prominently in this build in the front fenders, splitter, taillight panel, matching exhaust tips and interior highlights. The exterior features custom gray PPG paint, while the interior gets the full custom European leather treatment from Gabe’s Custom Interiors.
