Ford F100 Trophy Truck “Barely Street Legal” Throwing Down!!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
This is our first but definitely not the last shoot with Morgan Clarke. This guy and his crew build some amazing off road toys and they are truly purpose built to take a beating. This F100 started life as a Toyota Tundra then rolled badly and was turned into this beast. It still retains about 4 feet of Tundra frame rails but the rest is full custom underneath with an F100 cab set onto the frame work and features a built LSX engine to push it through the whoops, over the jumps and pretty much anywhere it wants to go so sit back and enjoy the ride...

I've known Morgan since high school, he was one of my very best friends and an incredible human being. Despite life taking us in our separate directions since, both in places we live and our respective careers. Watching him get this exposure and be successful just soothes my soul. Unconditional love for this dude, his family and his craft! 👊

This is some of the coolest looking driving footage. It's like a monster truck that you're actually allowed to drive on the road and be very intimidating. Seeing one of these roll down the road looks way cooler to me than a nicely done muscle car. Trophy trucks usually don't have such a nice looking body

@@maddogchad77Wrong! There is absolutely no difference between a Trophy Truck and a Trick Truck. The names are synonymous with one another. The only reason they go by different names is because SCORE International copyrighted calling the vehicle a Trophy Truck in their organization, the other race promoters call it a Trick Truck when racing in their respective races. Also, although there are plenty of 2 wheel drive trucks still racing, none have won a race for quite a long time. Every competitive truck racing in Trophy/Trick Truck class has been 4 wheel drive for the past 2-3 years.

Morgan is one talented guy. I have been following him and Tera Crew for a while. Fantastic builds.
I’ve been following Morgan for a long time, this guy in my opinion is one of the best fabricators today. I’m so glad he’s finally getting the exposure that he deserves. He’s been grinding for a long time too!

Being from LA, and being a car guy, I've always had an internal battle over my love of street rods, drag racing, and track racing and my love for off road racing, rock crawling, dune buggies, rails and Trophy trucks. I want them all. I was fortunate as a very young kid starting around age five(1970), that one of my dad's best friends raced the Baja 1000, Patker 500, Mint 500, and all the other races and our two families would drive from LA out into the desert and we'd camp and ride dirt bikes for a couple of days while the race was going on. Racers like Steve McQueen, Mickey Thompson, James Garner, Parnelli Jones, and many others. In those days there was no pre runners, no helicopters, no team crews, it was a driver and a navigator. You carried some spare parts and there were very few people who lived in those areas. If a driver broke down there was no help unless a local happened to live nearby but they were so poor that all they could offer was a pair of hands. Our parents would go down to La Paz every Christmas and bring toys and clothes and food to a couple of families that had helped get Randy's baja bug back in the race and gave them water and a little food when they were broken down in the races. It was so different back then. When I watch what those races have become it is mind blowing. That's why I still want to build a desert racer for King of the Hammer. You get to do trophy truck and rock crawling in one race. I've done the Rubicon trail in a bad ass Jeep and I've done some fast desert running, and I've street raced muscle cars had dirt bikes and street bikes. I'm ready to build something, not sure what though.

King Of The Hammers is the best 2 weeks any car enthusiasts could imagine. It’s unlike anything else, as a fan you get to meet all of the drivers and everyone there is super passionate about the vehicle they brought. Most racers have personally done the design and fabrication of them and are always willing to discuss their ideas with you.

@@uglyass9084 ---- California in general for its geological characteristics, is an amazing place considering we have just about every type of climate and terrain anyone could want. But, I've lived in NorCal for 17 years, moved there at 30yrs old and then moved back to LA because as beautiful as NorCal is, the people are cool but it's completely different than SoCal. SoCal is the home of hot rodding, skateboarding, surfing, dirt bikes, off road racing, sand racing, drag boats, etc... and I grew up around, literally in my neighborhood, famous speed shops for parts like Headman Headers, Iskendarian Cams, Gulstrand racing, Vasek Polak Porsche racing, Paisano Brothers top fuel funnycar racing owner Joe Paisano lived 2 blocks over from my house, my sister and his daughter were friends, Halibrand Racing wheels owner lived a few blocks away and are family friends and so many others. As a kid growing up and then as a teenager and in my later years myself and my friends took advantage, in a good way, of everything we could towards whatever hobby we were doing, which was everything from sports, baseball, football, soccer, surfing, skateboarding, golfing, snow skiing, water skiing, cars, motorcycles both dirt and street, boats, that's what SoCal is and has to offer. Anything you want for recreation and the best of the best can be found here. Like deep sea fishing or big game fishing, one of the biggest names in top of the line lures for Marlin, Tuna, Sail fish, etc... is a shop called Melton International and the Meltons are my family. I've also lived in Hawai'i and that is a great place but I get island fever and need to be back on mainland. In SoCal I have multiple times gone snow skiing in the morning til noon and drove back home to where I live a mile from the beach and gone surfing that afternoon. Sometimes you can be at the beach 80°F and look East and see snow capped mountains in the winter only a two hour drive away. It is paradise except the politicians who are destroying the state are making it too expensive, too much crime, bad infrastructure, making it almost impossible to run a small business like I do. But, the whole country is that way thanks to both Democrats and Republicans that hate us and hate our country.

One of my favorite builds you've covered so far. Love that the guy really drove that thing.
This one and the one you did with RJ Fab are my two favorite trucks in history. An F100 style pre-runner is my absolute dream build. This guys style and taste are amazing, that fabrication level is second to none!!
I love the spartan nature of Vivian. You know that she's ready to get down n durty. No silly frills or princess and the pea mentality. Thru and Thru Experience Build. The way it all works and can be seen, it's like it wants you to know her moves. 🔥builder and build! Kudos for sure
I really love the diversity of builds you do on this channel! Hotrods, lowriders, off-road, pro-touring! Keep it up! A+!
There is nothing compares to that sound
Morgan my mans! Good job showing off the build. Congrats on your success. Siccccccc
With all of Morgan's and crews fabrication ,form and function, it's fun to watch him put it through its paces Vivian is an awesome build 😁😎🤙

From the interview to the drive, this was very well spoken and edited. never seen this channel before, you have a new subscriber. There are plenty of other channels that have lost their luster over the years, this brings back my excitement for the industry. You can tell that hes had his paws on this whole build, dope!
First time seeing this shops work and I’m hooked! Amazing build! The passion, countless hours, and hard work shines in your finished product. Great interview and walkthrough of this build. Bucket list is to drive the shit out of a trophy truck. Seeing this truck hard brake on pavement gave me chills. 🤙🏼🔥
One of the baddest trucks on this planet
Absolutely wicked build, super jelly of that ride you got Shawn...cuz that is what I call terrorizing the streets man!
