‘Senorita’ F-100 Is Slammed, Sculpted, and Super Smooth

By -

Incredible 1976 F-100 build combines big block power with show truck style for the ultimate mashup.

Most custom truck builds follow a predetermined path, one that typically begins with an idea of what category the build will fall into. Whether that be a powerful muscle truck, low rider, or reliable driver. But sometimes, a truck comes along that shatters defined terms like restomod and pro tourer. Trucks like this amazing 1976 F-100, or as it’s otherwise known, “Senorita.”

With a build this incredible, the hardest part is figuring out where to start. So we’ll begin describing the Hot Rod Dirtys creation with that gorgeous exterior. The body and paint work is, quite simply, worthy of a show truck. And even though most of the body has been shaved and trim deleted, that iconic dentside grill remains. The jewel of a body essentially sits on the ground thanks to a full air ride setup hidden by a distressed whiskey barrel.

But lest you think this F-100 is all show and no go, you’d be sadly mistaken. Under the hood lies a beastly 429 with loads of goodies. It’s backed up by a beefy C6 automatic transmission. And as pretty as it is, you’ll have a hard time not ripping off smoky burnouts. At least the builder wasn’t afraid to do just that in the video above.

Inside, you won’t find some vinyl bench seat or one of those 70’s steering wheel wraps, either. In fact, you’d be forgiven if you forgot you were sitting in a 70’s F-100. Because everything is custom built and wrapped, with exotic ostrich skin inserts in the seat. It’s both a visual masterpiece and a comfy place to sit for hours at a time.

It isn’t often that we see a truck so multi-dimensional, but Hot Rod Dirtys really pulled it off with this one. We can’t think of a better show vehicle or boulevard cruiser. Or pretty much whatever you want it to be because we’re not going to slap a label on this F-100.
