This is a true American muscle car. The sound of this car is perfect. She's a beast built for speed but is always ready for a gentle cruz on a Friday night with the powered top down. This car tracks perfectly down the open road This beauty was stripped down to a bare shell about 10 years ago. NO significant body or frame rust to begin with, all surfaces were prepared and sealed with POR-15 before shipping out for paint.
New rear leaf springs were added along with KYB gas shocks on all four corners. Stainless Steel Brake Corp. slotted rotors and calipers now make stopping safe and quick! New front-to-back subframe connectors were also welded in place giving necessary stiffness and support to the convertible’s frame.
The drivetrain was also addressed. Engine was acid-dipped 302 block. New HiPo rods & pistons with Hastings rings were used along with a new gear-driven, high profile Edelbrock cam. The Trick Flow high compression aluminum heads are topped with a dual plane Quick Fuel Street Performer carb meters the gas coming from an electric fuel pump system.
MSD ignition systems (with Accel wires) with “Blaster III” coil as well. A custom aluminum “Be Cool” radiator with electric fan solves the always pervasive Mustang overheating issue perfectly and adds extra HP by not needing a fan belt. One turn of the key and the strong hipo 302 V8 fires right up with just a few pumps of the gas pedal when cold.
New The T5 Transition conversion operates smoothly. Great looking JME Performance gauges add character along with gleaming chrome bumpers in fantastic shape with no pitting or chrome wear. This Mustang really has been a blast to drive and absolutely turns heads everywhere you go!
