Details: Want one of the ultra rare Ford Mustang A/FX drag carsand#44; but you dont have a few hundred thousand dollar laying around? How about an exceptionally well-built tribute that gets the details correct right down to the performance-built V8and#44; and even throws some great Shelby pieces into the mix. But this one wont give your wallet a heart attack.


You know this coupe was built for some professional fun the moment it came into view. Sureand#44; a Nightmist Blue 66 Mustang is a pretty sight to seeand#44; but on this oneand#44; theres so much more for your eyes to enjoy. Ford had a handful of A/FX drag racers specially-built for members of this Drag Counciland#44; and the person who built this followed Fords template when making this tribute coupe. Up front you have the cool thunderbolt lift-off hoodand#44; plastic GT350R-style lower valanceand#44; and a huge lip spoiler. The sides continue this aggressive appearance with the GT350 stripe packageand#44; Shelby-style side scoopsand#44; and larger fender openings to accommodate the Weld wheels and modern tires. It all ends in an extra long (and functional) spoiler andamp; parachute package that casts a shadow on the wheelie bar. We have a huge file on all the details that have gone into this awesome buildand#44; but theres just too much to list. So give us a call for the full scope of the investment. But for nowand#44; just know that not only does it have the appearance of a vintage competition machineand#44; but as you continue to pour through at all the detailsand#44; youll see all the right components so it can genuinely be on the dragstrip tomorrow.


Insideand#44; we could tell you how much we love the look of the original two-tone blue interiorand#44; but really youre going to enjoy how this Mustang gets down to serious business. This is a true NHRA-ready machine with a full roll cage and all the right additional hardware necessary for competition. It also swings away for the driver and passenger to gain easy entry. The Kirkey racing buckets are covered in a nice blue to coordinate with the interiorand#44; and more importantlyand#44; they keep you planted for those high-speed runs. The same goes for the Stroud racing harnesses. The quick release Cobra steering wheel is easy to grip even in glovesand#44; and the Winters Side Winder shifter and huge shift light means its easy to stay in the powerband. And thats a good thing because theres some serious power propelling you down the strip.


When the hood is liftedand#44; you can get a great view at the combat-ready 408 cubic-inch stroker V8. This motor has been specially built to be both sturdy and speedy. It includes a SCAT crankshaftand#44; SCAT pistonsand#44; Hastings ringsand#44; SCAT connecting rodsand#44; a full Lunati cam packageand#44; Crane rocker armsand#44; aluminum headsand#44; Quick Fuel 750 CFM four-barrel carburetorand#44; Edelbrock Victor Sr intakeand#44; and Hooker Super Competition headers that feed the NHRA-required three-inch straight thru pipes. Just like the rest of this built there are a ton more details that wed love to tell you about in this monster motorand#44; but we have to move on to the rest of the drivetrain. Fords trusty C4 unit has been completely built and reinforced to keep you running hard in the quarter-mile. It feeds a Dynatech 3.5-inch driveshaft that connects to a Ford 9-inch rear with Strange axles. The front end has tubular upper and lower arms with adjustable Lindblad shocks and springs. The rear has been given serious reinforcement by Calvert Racing. Add in a competition four-wheel disc brake packageand#44; and you soon realize how much was invested to create this turnkey drag racer.


We cant stress enough how much more detail has gone into this buildand#44; but quite franklyand#44; you already know that you could never create something this race-ready for even triple our asking price. Thats why you know you have to hurry for
