One Hot Angel

Ford truck fans are more than familiar with beastly iterations of their favorite pickups. But this reimagined 2008 Ford F-250 takes things to a whole new level. This "Star Wars" meets "Mad Max" take on the famed truck is a one-of-a-kind monster that's ready to haul all comers.

One Cool Devil

The truck's skeleton is comprised primarily of thick steel tubing, which provides a frame for the model that's made of 1/8+ steel plates. The truck features a removable top hatch should a quick escape be necessary, while tinted RV/Marine windows with forward hinges provide a view to stunned pedestrians below.

Your Mind on a Fantasy

This abominable snowman comes from the steady and imaginative hand of Gateway Classic Cars of Denver, Colorado. The truck (armored vehicle?) is powered by a hand-built Powerstroke 6.4L diesel engine, which chugs along confidently atop 35" Cooper tires.

A Ten for the Revelry

If not for the suicide-style passenger doors and safety harness belts, the interior looks relatively familiar to that of a 2008 Ford F-250, although it does command considerably more power. Relax in the Ford factory leather eats while the Pioneer-brand touch screen stereo blasts some tunes out of the truck's 1600-watt Rockford Fostgate-brand amp.

Jammin' Up the Agency

The cherry on top is the Aulick Industries industrial-grade rear bed that's prepared for every kind of cargo you can throw at it. Two steel tubes attached to the side of the cargo bed offer additional carrying space for cargo or job site materials.

Rock N' Roll Train

Whether used in heavy-duty construction, private policing, or simply for a town hoppers, this thoroughly touch reimagined Ford F-250 is a stunning example of just how tough Ford trucks are. With the right parts, tools, and imagination, any Ford F-250 can become a true beast.
