Ford Raptor Conversion

Looks good and runs great to me Spence! Nice conversion!  Terry

Fantastic.  Looks like it is a good runner, for sure.  Conversions are fun, aren't they?

My son is a service manager at the Ford dealership and i spend a lot of time around Fords.  I like the Raptor a lot.  Nice truck. 

Being the proud owner of a 2011 Raptor, I really appreciate your efforts.

Of course, you do need a "jump".

Don't forget to bend the frame like the real ones do when you jump them!

Nice conversion. Now you need to figure out how to get the other cars to get the heck out if its way when it pulls up behind them.

Ugh... Ford , just when I was starting to like you Spence!  Jk, I'm a Chevy guy but nice conversion and good job!  (I'll keep this quiet, but I have that same truck on my ebay watch list ). I will need a little variety on my layout so I'll stick with any of the American brands.

Could you get a still-shot of it?

TM Terry: I also have a 2011 Raptor, black w/ red interior. I bought it new & it has 1800 miles on it. 6.2 liter 412 HP.

Lee &mjrodg3n88: I'm a Ford man without a doubt. I also own a 2013 Shelby GT500 convertible, 662 HP. & we also have a 2013 Taurus SHO, 365 HP. As you can probably figure out by now were not worried about MPG with these vehicles. (LOL). For that (MPG) we own a 1970 VW Bug.

mj: if you look up 1:46 diecast on Ebay you will find 4 different colors of the Raptor.

Not so fast there. Not all real Raptors are subject to "easy" frame bending. This real Raptor has a rear frame support with Fox 2.5" air bumps:

Thanks Spence.  I go the email.  The one I have saved in my watch list is the white one. I had a 2010 Camaro 1SS Cyber Gray Metallic with the flat black racing stripes, 6-speed, but traded it in a couple months ago on a Silverado (I hated not having a truck).

Spence....looks great!!!  I like it!!

Spence,

Great first effort!  When will you have a UPS package car running on the street?

LJ:

Spence,

I thought I saw that there was a UPS version of the step vans.  Glad to see you have them for the rest of your UPS center.  I think the step vans are good runners out of the box and they have been a good platform for some of the modifications/conversions that I have done.

Thanks for posting the video!
