Shelby Inspired F-100



  Everybody knows Gene Simmons, if you don't know who he is, he's the bass guitarist from the rock band "Kiss".  Well he and his wife, Shannon Tweed have pulled back the curtain on their really awesome truck; a custom 1956 Ford F-100 pick-up truck at the 2013 SEMA show.  Built with the help of Ford, the classic is named "Snakebit" and has styling features inspired by the high-performance Shelby Mustangs.  The truck is powered by a supercharged 5.4L V8 engine that sends 550 Horsepower and lurks behind the Mustang Inspired Grille with a six-speed Manual Transmission.  It has a stretched wheelbase, a widened box with a Machined floor that imitates wood, 18-inch front wheels and 20-inch real wheels along with custom built head and tail lights.  Inside you'll see handmade panels, two-tone leather interior, classic gauges and custom leather wrapped dash and armrests.  This a cool little truck, its got that great classic look, the best color, a fun manual transmission and most importantly...that big supercharged engine.  Please comment and share. Thanks.
