Details

This is an officially licensed and certified Eleanor Tribute Edition build and comes with the genuine Eleanor certification paperwork, Eleanor body VIN plate and emblems. This 1967 custom coupe conversion is a completely fresh rotisserie restoration. The body began with a clean and rust-free bare Mustang coupe shell and was designed and created to be a blend of the iconic Eleanor styling with an updated and modern suspension for improved performance. Underneath the distinctive domed Eleanor hood sits a freshly rebuilt Ford FE 428ci V8 engine with a Holley 750 dual-feed carburetor coupled to a Toploader 4-speed manual transmission with a Hurst shifter and Go-Baby-Go switch, which operates the front brake line lock for the occasional burn out. It has an electronic ignition for reliable performance. It exhales through 2.5-inch exhaust exiting through the side rockers. The exhaust system is equipped with electric variable-controlled exhaust dumps so you can conveniently adjust the exhaust volume from full mufflers to deafening open-headers. The original suspension was replaced, front to back. The powder-coated subframe assembly includes front tubular frame rails and subframe connectors, power rack & pinion steering and front adjustable coilovers. The rear suspension consists of a Watts Link 9-inch semi-floating rear differential with pivot and swing arms, QA1 shocks and coilovers, and heim joints and frame-rail brackets. It has a 31-spline Ford posi-traction unit with Motive Performance ring & pinion with functional 3.50 gearing. Stopping power is provided by 4-wheel Wilwood 12.25-inch power disc brakes with 4-piston drilled and slotted rotors and red calipers. In addition, the underside of the Mustang was prepared as meticulously as the top side and painted in the body color, with many coats of clear to allow it to be wiped down with ease. This Eleanor rolls on 8x17 front and 9.5x18 rear Eleanor-style wheels with Z-Rated performance tires. It was professionally finished in Pepper Gray Metallic 2-Stage PPG paint along with black Rally body stripes and multiple layers of clear coat over the top. The underside of the fiberglass hood and the shaved engine compartment are painted in the body color as well. The hood has variable adjustable aluminum billet hood hinges. The overall body gaps and alignment are laser-straight, and the fit and finish of the scoops and custom body modifications were hand-fitted for 90-degree seams. Proper sequential taillights, brushed stainless-steel bullet-style sideview mirror and Eleanor-style flip-up gas-filler lid round out the exterior look. It is equipped with a Vintage Air cooling system, electric trunk release and keyless push-button start, which also includes an alarm and disarming key fob. The all-new deluxe interior features custom low-back leather seats along with a leather center console and matching dash with stainless-steel billet trim on the dash and door panels. The rear area is equipped with a matching leather factory-style fold-down seat with the inoperable NOS bottle located behind it. It also has a custom-painted roll bar with a certified seat belt harness. The dash cluster is fitted with brand-new retro-style Velocity gauges and sits behind an Ididit tilt-steering column with a custom vintage-style wood steering wheel. Show-ready LED lighting in the interior cabin, engine compartment and chassis area allows for that 'wow' factor after dusk. Sound is provided by a RetroSound stereo with Bluetooth connectivity and multiple speakers. It has two batteries in the trunk, one for starting and the second for the LED lighting and accessories. All the accessories, extensive gauges, and lighting, including the front blue driving lights, fog lights and LED lights, operate and function correctly with the flip of a toggle switch.
