Description
Description
This car started life as a ‘notchback’ Mustang on the 1st of January 1968. We believe it underwent the transformation into the highly stylised ‘fastback’ you see today somewhere in the US, some time in 2015 – or thereabouts.
Today, the odometer reads 14,628 miles.
The bonnet is fibreglass, as is the boot lid.
Under the bonnet is, as far as we can tell, a 5.0-litre 302 V8 with Edelbrock carbs dressed as a 427W Cobra engine.
The car has an aluminum intake, electronic ignition, 4-speed transmission, power steering, disc brakes all round, ‘Shelby’ interior with high-back signature seats, ‘Shelby’ steering wheel, 3" lap racing harnesses, flip-up aluminium petrol cap, functional side exhausts, and 17" wheels.
We have driven the car and can report that it starts, goes and stops as you would hope.
It is, you’ll be glad to know, seriously brisk and creates a thunderous noise of precisely the tone, quality and volume required to make birds fall out of the sky and dogs howl at their own reflections.
In common with many big, powerful US muscle cars we’ve encountered over the years, it has a slight tendency to tramline under acceleration – but no more than others of its ilk.
