This yellow-Flamed 1964 Ford truck took over seven years to build, and Farmer John bought it to add yet another amazing creation to his collection.
1. Engine
Yuma, Arizona's own Troy Sutton is the man behind this beautiful hot rod, which he later sold to a man known to his friends as Farmer John. Troy replaced the stock '64 Ford engine with a 1970 Chevy small-block 355 cubic-inch motor. Sutton equipped the small-block with Forged JE pistons, Scat steel connecting rods, Total Seal rings, as well as a GM steel crankshaft. On top of the Chevy motor, is a Weiand 6-71 supercharger, Brodix aluminum heads, and a Demon 750 cfm blower carbs. Troy didn't leave a stone unturned with this Ford truck, and the result is simply fascinating.

2. Wheels and Tires
The '64 Ford truck is hardly recognizable, and now it rolls on a set of Colorado Custom Rykers Island wheels. The front wheels are 15"x7" with 3.5-inch backspacing, and the rear wheels measure 15"x14" with 5-inch backspacing. Around the front custom wheels are two 225/55R15 BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires, and 31x18.5x15 Hoosier Pro Street tires in the rear.

3. Suspension
To bring this Ford truck to this perfect stance, Troy installed Firestone airbags. You can only imagine how nice this truck rides, and if you can't imagine that, think about its gas shocks and you'll have a better idea. Troy installed Street Rod Engineering Mustang ll front clip, tubular A-arms, and he dropped the truck two-inches. In the rear, the truck is equipped with a 9-inch axle, parallel four link bar, as well as the same setup as the front for the shocks and airbags.

4. Interior
On the inside, this Ford is extremely unique. The stock seats are long gone, and now the driver and passenger get to experience this crazy truck from two 1990 Ford Mustang bucket seats. The door panels were all redone in leather, and the center console is custom made with sheet metal material. Troy installed Auto Meter gauges instead of the simple stock gauges, and he also replaced the old audio system with an Eclipse system that came with speakers, amp, and a subwoofer.

5. Exterior
The real magic is displayed on the exterior of this very unique 1964 Ford truck. Troy chopped the roof and lowered it 10 inches, as well as narrowed the front bumper two inches in. He also shaved the drip rails, the fuel filler, as well as the door handles, giving it a very sleek and smooth surface. The hood was cut to fit the vicious supercharger, and the bed was also cut to fit a custom exhaust from the side. Finally, in collaboration with C&C Auto Body Shop, Troy gave this truck this deep black paint job with the well-done yellow flames. This is nothing short of a masterpiece.
