Fat Fender Garage’s GT/FX: 800-HP Coyote V-8 Powers a Modern 1956 Ford F-100

Fat Fender Garage has unveiled its latest custom build, the GT/FX, a radical reimagining of the classic 1956 Ford F-100. This truck retains the vintage body lines but sits on a completely new chassis, providing modern handling and ride quality. Under the hood, a high-performance 800-horsepower Coyote V-8 engine delivers supercar-level power in a classic pickup silhouette. The interior is fully modernized with leather bucket seats, blending comfort with the aggressive stance. This build matters because it showcases the growing trend of resto-modding—combining timeless design with contemporary performance and technology. For enthusiasts, the GT/FX represents the ultimate fusion of nostalgia and modern muscle. Fat Fender Garage continues to push the boundaries of what classic trucks can become, and this F-100 is a bold statement in the custom automotive world. Expect more builders to follow suit as demand for high-powered vintage trucks rises.
