RICK PIETILA

Ann Arbor, MI 1965 Ford F-100

RICK’S 1965 F-100 is referred to as the F-ROD. It’s driven daily (except in bad winters), and it makes the drive on vacations from Michigan to Florida.

With all work done by Rick and his wife in their home garage, it has a 351 Cleveland and C4 trans, ’03 Vic front with Fatman narrowed tubular A-arms, RideTech coilovers, Vintage Air, Ididit tilt column, rear frame kicked up 8 inches with 3-inch lowering springs, ’02 Vic axle with 3.08 gears, fuel cell moved to rear of the bed, rolled pans front and rear, and fully painted with $75 worth of Rustoleum rattle cans. Home built and put to use just the way we like them. Thanks for reading and following along, Rick!
