Check out this gorgeous 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback Movie Car! I purchased this from the former owners through Vanguard, thus the second owner/user. This Eleanor had undergone a complete Rotisserie Restoration with no expense spared. The body and paint job alone was a $20,000+ show quality job with amazing gaps, straight and consistent lines, functional side scoops, and a finish that is glass smooth. The restoration neared completion when the car was driving in March of 2017, then totally finished that summer. It was featured by Summitt Racing in March of 2018, and was also the Cover Feature on Southern Polyurethanes Inc Technical Manual. Everything is brand new. It features 17” PSE Wheels, Wilwood 4-Wheel Disc Brakes, IFS Front Suspension, 4 Link Rear Suspension, and all suspension components have been powder coated. All four adjustable Coil Over Shocks are billet and chrome. Under the hood is the Keith Craft 410ci Windsor V8 Stroker with Fast EFI 2.0 Fuel Injection, Concept 1 Pulley system, Old Air A/C, BeCool Module, Braided Stainless Steel Aeroquip fuel lines and connectors, Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator, Billet Filter, Custom Rick's Fuel tank with in tank pump, custom bent correct filler tube, II Much charcoal fuel filter, Ceramic Coated Headers, Stainless Steel Exhaust with correct “through torque box” Side Exhaust. The engine is partnered with a Tremec TKO600 5-Speed Manual Transmission with hydraulic clutch. There is a full 1967 Shelby Interior including the "Go-Baby-Go" Shifter and authentic Carroll Shelby signature on the dash with certificate of authenticity. This car is stunning and is a true no expense spared and never “built to sell” car. This is the nicest restoration of this movie car ever. I saw many Frakenstein jobs out when I was looking there but this is a true gem which looks as good as it drives!
