Details

Restored in 2008 with no expense spared, this Mustang began as an FE-block 1967 Ford Mustang fastback in Dark Moss Green metallic, originally fitted with an S-code 390ci 4V V8, 4-speed manual and 3.25:1 limited-slip differential. It received a bare-metal rotisserie restoration with custom Shelby-style vents and scoops; painted, treated and wax-oiled interior panels; and an airbrushed and ghosted 427 logo and Shelby GT stripe done by Abbie Aspin. The car was refinished with Moss Green DuPont paint with six coats of clear and features Scott Drake trim, Ringbrothers hood hinges and Spectral black anodized tail moldings, front grille and plate frames. It also sports high-output headlights, sequential LED lights in the rear and front grille, and PIAA driving lights. This custom Mustang is powered by an FE block 427ci 8-cylinder Roush crate engine rated at 500hp and featuring an alloy Carroll Shelby block, Edelbrock intake, Holley 4-barrel carburetor, MSD ignition, AFCO aluminum radiator, 1/2-inch stainless-steel fuel line front to back, custom bracing and supports, custom headers, 3-inch X-pipe exhaust and hand-built wiring harness. Gear changes are provided by a Toploader wide-ratio 4-speed manual transmission with a Lakewood scatter shield, McLeod clutch with hydraulic release bearing, 9-inch 3.55 rear differential with posi-traction and Tom's Kickass axles. Adjustable Wilwood 6-piston front and 4-piston rear disc brakes along with an electric-over-hydraulic power braking system by ABS provide the stopping power. This custom rides on 18-inch U.S. Mags Magnum wheels with Michelin Pilot tires. The chassis features a custom subframe connection, Total Control Products rack & pinion steering, Race Craft drop spindles, sway bars, and suspension using quarter elliptical QA1 coilovers in the rear and QA1 adjustable coilovers in the front. The front struts have Steda camber plates in the towers. The custom full leather interior features ProCar seats, trunk storage and battery case by Buckets & Benches, brushed aluminum dash, Haneline gauges, Lokar pedals, Hurst shifter, custom pistol E-brake and bezels, Clarion 4-speaker sound system and a powder-coated custom roll cage.
