A slick '60s fastback that features an exceptionally straight body this Mustang benefitted from a detailed rotisserie restoration that subjected rust-free metal to strict media blasting and roughly $25K of PPG 2-sta...ge. Many hours were spent ensuring that clean metal had a solid foundation including widened wheel tubs and reinforced factory welds. That vibrant PPG a combination of traditional Wimbledon White and exotic Viper Blue pigment came courtesy of Tucson Arizona's Hood's Etc. And today this Ford rolls as one head-turning thoroughbred that's right at home reflecting a summertime car show! Professionally assembled with nitrous capability the car's aluminum Dart small block features an increased bore that nets a whopping 427 cubic inches of Ford power! Behind that hot mill a dual-disc clutch utilizes a hydraulic throw-out bearing to engage a Keisler Tremec TKO 5-speed. The transmission twists a Strange Ford 9-inch which spins a posi-traction differential and 2.70 gears between an aluminum center section and 35-spline axles. That drivetrain rolls on a proven Total Control Products suspension that's finished with a Flaming River steering box and adjustable coil-over-shocks. Big Wilwood calipers utilize an SSBC proportioning valve to clamp two vented rotors behind two drilled and slotted rotors. And at the corners of the car American Racing wheels spin 245/40ZR17 BF Goodrich g-Force Sports in front of 315/35R17 Nitto NT555 Extreme Drags.
