Ford f100 Restomod
Well .we started off with a rusted body and buk,no chassis ,no wheels but with a dream and a vision, we were tasked to build something Botswana has never seen before ,something custom ,something one-off and this was a perfect canvas to show Botswana what we can do, not only with our workmanship,but our craftsmanship and fabrication.
We started with a shell and no base ..but with a plan.. ,we want a new school, old school bakkie....
Then we decided to take later model pajero chassis and start with something that's readily available and serviceable ,Done.
First obstacle was the chassis is too short so we ended up extending the chassis and then this didn't look proportional and we decided to shorten the buk aswell and now it came together.
The bakkie body is of a 4x4 so we came up with the idea of changing the shape of the wheel arches that used to accommodate 4x4 tyres now accommodates a road tyre ,so we redesigned the wheel openings to give it a new school appeal.
Rust ..Rust..Rust ...so we started attending the worst bit ..that was the rear end,the tailgate was a story,and we can't find a fresh one anywhere ...we then decided to re-manufactured and build a tailgate fram scratch ,(all in House)and we are integrating
A electrical lock mechanism to open and close the tailgate by a push of a button,and we also fabricated a rear roll panel to suit the tailgate, no more levers and handles !
The entire buk floor was replaced with newly bent sheet and allot of structure was put into place to strengthen everything up .
