I think there was a thread about this not to long ago and it would cost like
$300-$400 to have it designed I believe
(Then again I may be going crazy)

Designing and building/redesigning a MOC is not quick or easy. If it took 10
hours to design a car at $20 an hour...... Where I live they pay gas station
clerks $15 an hour so $20 would be cheap.

The attached took me 5 hours before I was happy with it and it's less complex
than a car.

  Hello!
I’m not very good at making Mocs, and there was one I’ve been wanting for a long
time! Is there anyone who can build me a speed champions-style white 1973 ford
F-100? I’ve been wanting that model for a while! I’ll give a lot more details
and pictures if you message me! If anyone can help me, let me know! Thanks!

I would check rebrickable to see whether there's something that's about
the right scale you're looking for.

I’ve already looked everywhere. As the truck model is so uncommon, I can never
find it at all! Is there any designers who might do requests on rebrickable?
(Y’know, if it ever reopens.) Or am I just dreaming 😂

Have you tried looking on Google? https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=lego+1973+fordF-100
and images - https://www.google.com/search?q=lego+1973+ford+F100&client=firefox-b-d&sxsrf=ALiCzsajSZJLY9Yxt7EzT8fDGprkfvyamw:1661967677971&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiC-cqI0PH5AhWaUsAKHZjyApkQ_AUoAXoECAEQAw&biw=1320&bih=778&dpr=1.25

There are already MOCs of this vehicle out there - maybe you could buy some instructions
and then modify them to your liking.

One of the major MOC sites is down right now, but it's definitely worth having
a look and seeing what's available.

Unfortunately none of that is what I’m looking for. That’s my dilemma lol

You could expand the search to popular cars on Rebrickable and Flickr. Dial in
on the wheels, the body, building techniques, etc. Find the aesthetics you like,
and they might give you the inspiration to reverse engineer your dream truck,
component by component. And if someone's MOC looks really good, see if you
can work something out with them?

If you want to learn more about building techniques or just want to give the
designer better feedback on the build... links:
