World's Fastest Ford F100



This amazing “World’s Fastest Ford F100” is owned by John & Rita Maffucci. While it sports the look of a classic 1955, there is much more to this mean machine. The ‘55 pickup was found in a chicken coop in Clemont, GA and they set out to return the truck to glory.

The chassis was completed with a Mustang II front end, ’03 Mustang Cobra independent rear end and 4 wheel disc brakes. Frame and all suspension pieces are power coated. The 06 Ford GT Tungsten Paint makes this beauty look fast setting still. Porsche “Lipstick Red” leather was chosen for the interior, along with black carpet bound in the same leather. The seat was custom built by Tim’s Upholstery along with the custom headliner console, with Sony Cd Player, Radar Detector and rear speaker enclosures. Under the hood you will find a Supercharged, Cobra 4.6 Modular Motor, Bassani Headers, Accufab 100m Throttle Body, Ported and Polished Supercharger, Pro M Air Intake, Metco Pulleys and Borla Exhaust putting out 510 RWHP. 

The 55 was the 2007 Good Guys Truck of the year and has won many other awards as well.
On 3-31-2007 in Maxton, NC. John Maffucci’s F100 Cobra sets a new ECTA land speed record.  Running the standing one-mile course. John was able to propel his F100 to a speed of 144.124 MPH, setting a new AA/MP record.
