I wonder what it cost to build one nowadays. Man I need to make my $7million ASAP.

The driver side muffler is farther back than the pass muffler.

Just what the world needs, another poor fastback Mustang turned into an Eleanor clone, with rear tires that are almost 100 mm wider than the fronts ... that will handle well. :sarcasm:

Just another slow GT-500 on the track. ;)

Even back in the day, Mustang II front end was horrible, why so many opt for that style of suspension kills me.

Over done, and it's a '67 not a '68.

Wow tuff crowd. That is one sweet car and super clean.
Ok so the tire set up is not ideal for road track and there are better set ups than a Stang 2 front end but come on that is still a great driving and great looking car.
Is that look a tad over done. One could say yes but so was a
60s mustang with torq thrust
black fox 5.0 with 5 spokes
fox with big an little weld wheels and a cowl hood
Sn95 with Saleen wheels
Pretty tuff to be unique in the mustang world.
My opinion is that is a great looking car that would be as capable as most car enthusiast would require.

Don't get me wrong, it's a nicely built car, but show some originality FFS ... doesn't deserve a magazine article IMO when it's so much like so many other Eleanor clones already done for years and years.


cheers

Love everything except the procharger. Classics shouldn't whistle. [emoji58]

I'd certainly kick my car to the curb for it though.

$219,000 US according to the CR site

getting into a price range where you could do a nice custom one-off build
