Details

This 1967 Ford GT500 re-creation started life as an S-code GT 4-speed Mustang Fastback originally sold by a Ford dealership in Decatur, IL. It has been transformed into a Resto-Mod with modern technology throughout and great attention to detail. It underwent an extensive two-year rotisserie restoration with proper body line fitment and numerous hours of preparation, and was finished in Ford Race Red Sikkens paint with Performance White stripes. This Mustang is powered by a Ford Racing 5.0-liter V8 Coyote crate engine rated at 425hp and dyno-tuned with 380hp at the rear wheels. The TREMEC T56 Magnum 6-speed manual transmission features a Centerforce high-performance clutch and pressure plate. It comes equipped with a 9-inch Truetrac posi-traction rear end with a 3.89 gear ratio. The stopping power is handled by 6-piston Wilwood power disc brakes up front and 4-piston in the rear. For improved performance and handling, TCI front and rear suspension with 2-way adjustable coilovers at all four corners was chosen. The interior features custom Mercedes-Benz carpeting and Scat Elite leather seats with a remote-controlled stereo system and Dakota Digital gauges. It features air conditioning, power steering, sequential taillights and a custom gas tank by Rick's Hot Rods with an in-tank fuel pump. It rides on custom Budnik 18-inch knife-edge-design wheels wrapped with Toyo tires. A Marti Report is included.
