Dan Maxwell built this 1974 Ford F-250 Crew Cab at the company in Arizona. In the engine bay Dan swapped a naturally aspirated 7.3 L Godzilla V8 capable of 525 hp (386 kW). Behind the big-block V8 is a 6R80 six-speed automatic transmission controlled by a US Shift TCU. An Atlas II transfer case splits torque between Ford Superduty eight-lug axles. The truck rides on a factory chassis with Superduty suspension and Battle Born disc brakes. Dan sent the truck to Fat Fender Garage for a custom interior using black leather from Apex Leather with Relicate plaid inserts. The cabin also has a one piece headliner, power windows, Dakota Digital gauges, and Vintage Air AC system.
