Gateway Classic Cars Louisville showroom is proud to present this
1968 Ford Mustang "Eleanor" Tribute. So, we all know the real star
of the last Gone in Seconds movie was the car. This Mustang pays
tribute to the movie, the car and is an excellent performer.
Starting out as a father and son project, the original plan was to
build nice solid 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback. The original painter
was taking longer than expected, the car was retrieved and new plan
was implemented. This Mustang has more than just an Eleanor body
kit. Under the gray metallic skin is a full 2x3 inch tube frame
giving this Mustang a more rigid platform which allows it, whether
it be on a road course or a dragstrip, at a higher level of
performance. This Eleanor rides on a full coil over suspension and
has disc brakes at all four corners. Under the hood, things get
real serious with a professionally built 351W engine. Utilizing a
Comp Cams Thumper cam and a set of AFR aluminum heads, the 351W is
up to task of making this car go. The 351W is mated to a World
Class T-5 manual transmission that sends the power to a rock-solid
Ford 9-inch rear end. Inside the interior is all business with a
set of Recaro racing seats to keep you firmly planted when making
performance moves. Keeping the car enjoyable while driving is an
AM/FM radio with a CD player. Not will you look cool driving this
beauty but you will stay cool with the "Old Rellick" AC/Heating
system that was installed. I bet Nic Cage wished his movie car
would had that! Options for this 1968 Ford Mustang Eleanor tribute
include; Air Conditioning, AM/FM radio with CD player, Power
steering, Seat Belts, Disc Brakes, Aluminum Alloy Wheels wrapped in
Radial Tires. To view this 1968 Ford Mustang Eleanor Tribute in
