This wild '90s show truck relic sports some pretty impressive, one-of-a-kind artwork. Check it out inside!
1. Kicking It Old School
The world of custom trucks these days is pretty wild. But if you're old enough to remember the street truck movement, you know that crazy paint jobs and insane interior treatments are nothing new. The only thing that's changed, really, is that jacked up four-wheel drive trucks have taken the place of dropped, low-profile tire equipped two-wheel drive ones. And no pickup we've spotted in recent history more perfectly encapsulates old school street machines than this artistic 1998 Ford F-150 we found over at Streetside Classics.

2. Rolling Work of Art
Obviously, the star of this show is that burnt orange paint covered in can't-miss graphics. Whether you dig this kind of paint scheme or not, you can't deny the skill it took to lay it down. Heck, the unique treatment even covers the doorjambs and features ghost skulls in the flames on the lower panels. No, this isn't your average Maaco paint job. It's one that obviously cost a pretty penny and took a skilled hand and many hours to complete.

3. Making a Statement, Inside and Out
Of course, with the level of detail this F-150 sports on the outside, the interior has to be something extra special too. And it most certainly is. The orange paint and graphics continue inside, where you'll find a custom center console and quite a few other one-off bits. Everything that isn't painted features contrasting stitching. But in lieu of a back seat, the extended cab now carries a ridiculous sound system consisting of 18 speakers and 4 amps. Because obviously, if they can't see you coming, they should at least hear you!

4. Pop the Hood for a Surprise!
Another unique feature of this rather unique F-150 lies under the hood. It's there that you might expect to find a modular V8 from this era. But you won't. Instead, this truck's got a 4.2-liter V6, which appears to at least have a cold air intake on top. We suppose the owner needed that extra space for the dual batteries and fans that power the massive stereo system, but who knows? And of course, there's also an air horn tucked in there just in case the exterior of this thing isn't audacious enough!

5. Custom Touches for a Custom Truck
To further complement this insane build, you'll find lots of custom touches to set it all off. Dual billet grilles replace the stock ones up front, which are surrounded by custom headlights. The tailgate, bed, and rear bumper have been smoothed, because you're not going to use them, anyway. And like any proper '90s custom, this F-150 has an air bag suspension and 22-inch Boyd Coddington wheels. It's truly one wild blast to the past!
