Now that's an off-road Funny Car. The outside looks like a Raptor, but underneath is a race car.

Great Build.

Two questions: Did this start as a regular f150 or a raptor? Where did the hydroboost come from?

 

[sodrty]

yeah, its a 2wd f150, if they made a 2wd raptor I would buy one.
I got the hydroboost from Vanco, it comes with an old chevy corvette style master cylinder made out of cast iron and weighed like 20 lbs.,so I adapted a Strange Engineering aluminum master (about 1.5 lbs)...and saved a bunch of weight... and I machined an adapter plate to bolt the wilwood master to the firewall....

I would assume one out of a mustang would work too. Hmmm, maybe the one I pulled out of my cobra isnt so useless after all.

Thanks

Son of a bitch, between this truck and SPRSNKs monster, I have some envy! I'd love to see the two for your rides out playing together once you get yous complete.
