Vehicle Description
We're not sure if we should call this a resto-mod, pro-street, or
just the ultimate classic 1965 Ford Mustang 2+2. But you don't need
a definition to recognize that the ultra slick red paint, 425 hp
V8, five-speed, and a whole lot of other quality features that make
this custom build the coolest fastback around.
A first-year fastback is a rare treat, but it only takes a moment
to realize you're looking at something extra special. The bright
red paint gives you a clear indication of a serious investment just
by how much shine it radiates in the sunlight. The modern clearcoat
application is far more advanced than anything that came from the
factory in '65, so it sets the tone for this quality custom build
perfectly. And of course, no body imperfections could hide from a
luster like this, so it's a telltale sign of an investment in
bodywork fundamentals. With a shine like this only the best
brightwork will do, and that's why the new bumpers have a
mirror-like appearance. There is some serious aggression built into
this coupe, but it never looses the classic Mustang appearance. For
example, the racing wheels, side scoops, and side pipes are all
reminiscent of the Shelby Mustangs. Plus, the billet grille, cowl
hood, hood pins, and custom side windows are great custom additions
that draw attention, too.
Inside, the competition attitude becomes even better defined. The
modern Procar Rally seats and G-Force racing belts keep you and
your passenger firmly planted. You get a three-spoke sports
steering wheel, and beyond that is a full set of AutoMeter Phantom
gauges, including a tach. A Hurst shifter is a must in a car like
this, and you might have now caught sight of the extra gear. The
door panels, carpets, and dash could give the impression of a nice
stock Mustang. There's even an Autosound AM/FM stereo, power
windows, and provisions for air conditioning. But the full roll
cage running through the interior is another reminder it's a
competition-grade coupe.
Under the hood is a performance-built V8 that you'll be proud to
show off. After all, the bracer bars, steel-braded hoses, polished
brackets & pulleys, bright valve covers, and air grabber come
together to show that solid engineering can be sexy, too. And when
you look beyond the flash, there's even more substance with a 392
cubic-inch block that has plenty of go-fast goodies, including an
Edelbrock intake, Holley four-barrel carburetor, aluminum heads,
and headers. There's a ton more upgrades (call for all the info,)
but just know that there was over $12K invested in the performance
engine build alone. The full power package was dynoed to 429
horsepower at the rear wheels, and the roar of the custom dual
exhaust lets the world know you're making some serious power. A
monster motor like this needs all the right supporting equipment,
and that includes Ron Morris Performance motor mounts, MSD
ignition, racing fuel cell, and an aluminum radiator w/electric
fans. The TKO 600 five-speed manual transmission, MC Motorsports
hydraulic clutch conversion kit, and Centerforce clutch is the
exact kind of stout package you want to transmit all the power to
the Currie 9-inch 3.50 Trac Lok rear end. And when you make this
kind of power, you need to upgrade the suspension, too. That's why
up front there are new control arms, Varishock adjustable shocks,
and a thick sway bar. Add in the grip of modern performance tires
and SSBC four-wheel disc brakes, and this is a serious machine for
the street or track.
With only 3,388 miles on the build, and a full packet of receipts,
manuals, and photos, you can pass this exceptionally new custom
build off for your own (we'll never tell.) But a one-of-a-kind like
this means you have to be the first one to grab it if you want this
Mustang story to be yours. Call now!!
