Like the post on the HP says, you'd be hard pressed to tell this Excursion wasn't built by Ford. It must have cost a pretty penny to build!

FYI: $90k (maybe Canadian dollars though?). asking price suddenly my '05 looks a whole lot better

It is a 2012 w/6.7 conversion with a 2005 Excursion body, so it's at least a lot more than just the external body panels

Probably a Custom Autos By Tim truck. Nice for sure, but pricey.

Yeah, pricey for sure. The person who commissioned this must have been loaded...

I dont know

I kinda like the color scheme. Reminds me of the 1958 Ford Fairlane 500 I learned to drive in (the colors, that is, not the vehicle itself). If I had much more expendable money than I do, I'd consider buying it.

Factory color, Golden Bronze Metallic.




IMO the badges take away from the truck. Either needs to be just F250 (fender) or just Excursion (door), not both. Ideally would be new fender emblems that say Excursion.

I agree

If you're going to go to all the expense to create a "new" Excursion, what's a little more to get some custom Excursion badges for the fender.

You've never seen a King Ranch F-Series truck before? That's one of the colors Ford offers them in.

Yeah, I have, but am not a fan. More of a gray/black/white guy. Nice truck, though.

Ah, ok...the way you posted that, I figured you were commenting that they painted it a weird, non-OEM color.
