1965 Ford Mustang Touring Pro 600 HP
"The Beast"
This awesome 1965 Ford Mustang Pro Touring 600 HP Beast is a
five-year build with only top shelf parts used and a ton of custom
fab and metal work. It drives and looks amazing. The owner says
it's easily the best driving and performing custom he had and this
bad ass muscle does just as well ripping through corners as it does
cruising down the freeway at 80mph. It has a turbocharged aluminum
4.6L DOHC built by MV Performance, Holley Dominator EFI system,
custom fabricated headers, PT70 Turbocharger with eBoost electronic
boost controller and puts out 600hp to the rear wheels so you know
it's over 700hp at the crank.
The magazine, "Muscle Cars World" is sure the guy who built it was
a metal fabricator and a freak about making sure everything didn't
just look good but performed well together. The hood scoop is all
steel and was formed by hand using an English wheel, the stainless
turbo piping was all custom built along with the intercooler and
core support, transmission tunnel was custom fabricated to allow
for precise angles, custom fabricated oil pan to allow for
additional clearance while performing, floor pan was re-fabricated
to allow him to keep the stock driver seat but have it ride at a
lower, more modern sports car height.
Dash bezel was custom built to allow for 8-gauge display while
keeping the stock look, the front suspension and engine mounts were
customized to allow the engine to sit lower for better balance, and
he custom fabricated front and rear sway bars for the car modeled
after those used in NASCAR. It has been featured on the cover along
with a 6-page spread in Hot Rod Magazine, featured in 6-page spread
in Mustang and Fords Magazine, featured on Stangtv.com, and
featured in the 2011 Budweiser Car Calendar.
