Sylvester Stallone’s 1955 Ford F100 Build by West Coast Customs

Sylvester Stallone’s movie “The Expendables” pays homage to the big action flicks of the 1980s and 1990s. The film features a 1955 Ford F100 truck, which had to be fully worked over for silver screen worthiness.

The customization experts at West Coast Customs would be the ones handling the custom build efforts. After calling upon WyoTech students Owen Lubenow, Rusty McClintock, and Matt Myers for assistance, the crew at West Coast Customs was able to churn out three fully restored 1955 Ford F100s: two for the movie, and one for Stallone to keep.

The ground-up restorations included metal fabrication work and the installation of a 347-cubic-inch Ford small block from ATK Engines, which reportedly put out 429 horsepower and 411 pound-feet of torque when fitted with an Edelbrock Total Power Package.
