ECONOMY STEERING
The owner of this ’56 Ford pickup purchased it for a daily driver, and after driving it for a short time decided to make it more comfortable. Still running the original suspension, it rode rough and typically handled like an old truck, which it happens to be. He wanted a softer ride, and for the truck to handle like a modern sports truck, so several chassis improvements were in order.

SPLIT-LINER
Ronnie Staples has been enjoying custom cars for more than five decades, which not only dates him but also makes him somewhat of a well-versed enthusiast who knows what he wants in a modern super rod.

Clean Up Your Engine Bay
These covers are built for builders who love the Coyote’s performance but want to add some visual order to all that function. Designed specifically for the third-gen Coyote engine, they deliver a cleaner, more intentional appearance by concealing the busy coil packs and top-end components that usually steal attention from an otherwise killer swap.
Designed to Fit Your Build
Whether you’re running a supercharger, a custom intake, or you’re just a fan of the factory manifold’s shape, these cam covers slip right in to complement your setup. They’re shipped in a matte black finish, ready to install straight out of the box — or scuff and shoot them to match your car’s paint, detail color, or intake theme.
Simple, Stylish, and Functional
This package includes only the valve cover covers, keeping the install simple while letting you handle the look your way. The end result? A Gen 3 Coyote that doesn’t just perform like a modern muscle hero — it looks the part too.
