Brazillian F-1000

So I heard about this '70s f-1000. Aparently the brazillian ford trucks were done like shebby with 1000, 2500...

I also heard that they were available in Brazil as an SUV thingy...

Thought nothing of it till I saw this video

YouTube - F1000 Turbinada!

Ugly is right! And gutless, if you watch a bunch of the other F1000 videos...

I saw some of these when i was in Brasil and Argentina two years ago. I thought they looked pretty cool, although they didn't have enough bed for "real truck" uses.

I'd love one to use as a mud truck though.

There are some pics of these in my gallery.

It's like the newer Sportracs that are based on the Explorer with a little bed. I never linked those, but the 70's version is kinda cool.

Yeah, I think it's REALLY ugly... but it would still be neat to have one for the "rare" factor.

You see a lot of stuff like that in South America. The "Big 3" all had plants down there that built for the local market. When I was working in Venezuela in the mid '70s you could buy a brand new '63 Impala with a four cylinder engine. I heard that they shipped the body dies down and built cars that the locals could afford. Lot's of weird combinations. Brazil has a pretty big auto industry. They used to use a lot of ethanol made from sugar cane.
