Randy is as real as they come. A true craftsman with passion to build a great machine. So glad to see him get the opportunity to brag on his truck here and have it so well received. Thank you for making such a complimentary video revealing this truck.

If this isnt one of the best F100's on the planet than idk what else to look for. This guy has made this truck immaculate.
@RomVlad2 ай бұрын
The truck is simply perfection IMO but the real story is what Randy has done here. This looks like a build you'd see from a high end shop, not from one guy- the steering wheel is just one example of vision and execution.

Well, you can definitely tell that man is a handyman! He sure as hell nailed that truck!😎 Being so damn dialed in and driving so well with a custom suspension, says a lot about the guy's abilities!
@CC-mb8fi2 ай бұрын
A truer custom build one cannot ask for. Enough power, enough handling and stopping, enough stock motor for reliability....... You cannot ask for more for enjoyment and daily driving..... The high end builds are beautiful.....but they sit in an airconditioned garage under lights and mirrors.......bling bling This is lights and mirrors when you know what to look for......on the road with a driver that enjoys it!!!! My ideal build......

I’m a ford guy that’s also a self employed painter/handyman+ & I think this guy and build are great. (I never moved to LA, but I’ve done some local theater & commercials) I’m building an ‘88 t-top Mustang right now and yes, I’m doing literally everything myself. I’m not coyote swapping but I’m building and bored/stroked/& forged 347 with a twin turbo kit. I got everything second hand cheap or swapped for everything.

Amazing. I think keeping (& boxing) the original frame makes it more of a classic truck than body swapping. (Not that I have anything against body swaps. They seem like an efficient way to go.)
@TheSlowoldman2 ай бұрын
Probably one of my favorites of a 61-66 F100 builds I've seen. So understated and not overwrought in any way. At first I thought Foose, based on the the subltle mods and stance, and I mean that as a compliment of the highest order. Stunning for a garage build, I'm constantly amazed at the talent level of self builds, a bit envious of that ability too.

As soon as I saw this truck, I knew it must have been a result of when I saw Shawn and one of his buddy’s walking around Quarantine Cruise. I tried to catch up to Randy as everyone was cruising towards Newport Beach to cruise up PCH… I never did get a chance to catch up - as I wanted to ask him if his truck was Wimbledon White - same color I’m going to paint my other Pinto (72). Hey there, Shawn. I yelled out to you from my brown bone stock 73 Pinto, and later, I chimed out to your friend as I was leaving. Very cool, you got Randy’s truck on here, and now I don’t have to ask about the color. Great truck.

At the end of the piece you said something like “given this guy doesn’t build vehicles for a living” was kind of a kick in the nuts for me. Most people who build cars for a living have their own cars neglected because after 6 days a week of building other people’s cars to earn some mediocre income, you don’t want to go F with your own builds. “The Cobbler’s Children have no Shoes” kind of cliche. But I will say this with certainty; Randy Ross, does in fact, build cars for a living because it is his Life and his Life’s work. He is the epitome of a “Lifer”. Excellent feature piece and a very accurate representation of Randy’s commitment and consummate professionalism to the car craft community and culture.

A year or so out of High school I bought a 67' F100 stepside 6' bed with a 352ci v8 around 1976 or 77. Dam tuff truck. Was running a 4v carb, 4:11rr and a C6Auto trans. Kept that truck over 10 years time. Ran factory dual exhaust, glass packs with exhaust exiting in front of the rear tires under the running boards on each side. Put wood stake railings on the bed. 15" Turbine aluminum rims on all 4 corners. No power steering or brakes. Had my Trans. shifter mounted on the console hump with a mustang shifter. This was in the 70s and 80s. I also had a 69' Ply Road Runner at the same time.
