Sadly, that configuration is all show and no go, which is certainly not the case now. It is nice to start with a true performance model, though, as all of the trim is in place. The body was rust free, requiring only the usual straightening from door dings and the like that are typical of a 40 year old car. Acapulco Blue, tinted slightly darker than stock, was chosen for the body. Thats not usually a manly color for a Mustang, but the deeper tint, grayed-out trim, bright wheels and great stance set the tone for the rumble to follow. The bodywork is very straight, the paint has huge shine, and the details are done right. Weve installed new side marker light and reverse light bezels to go with the rechromed bumpers, while the grille is an excellent original. American Racing Hopster wheels, 17 inches all around, add some shine to the side profile. The doors, hood and trunk close as they should. A Boss 429 hood scoop is up front for clearance while the rear spoiler and high-quality Tony Branda rear louvers complete the package. Inside, few parts deviate from stock, but those that do make life a lot easier. Theres a very cool JME gauge cluster stuffed with Auto Meter gauges in front of the LeCarra wheel/Ididit tilt column combination. In front of the BandM shifter on the console, there are another pair of redundant, mechanical gauges for water temp and oil pressure. The seats, door panels and dash are all new, as are the sill plates and more. The controls for the Vintage Air A/C system are under the stock AM radio. Star #2 of the build is the Martz chassis. These guys are accustomed to building NASCAR-spec pieces, and it shows in the details. Custom, tubular front upper and lower control arms replace the stockers. Coilover shocks are at all four corners, and splined sway bars with billet pivots are at each end. Wilwood brakes are all around for stopping while power rack-and-pinion steering points the car. A 9 Ford rear end puts the power to the ground with the help of 3.50 gears and a Detroit Locker. The axles hung by a custom four link with a Panhard rod, and its ability to twist the car in half is negated by custom, welded subframe connectors. The exhaust system is custom, featuring ovalized tubing and Borla mufflers. New lines, hoses and a fuel tank round out the mechanical package. Aesthetically, you can see driving placed ahead of show quality on the priority list. Its as clean as a whistle, with the suspension in gloss black powdercoat and the entire underside in a coating of rubberized bedliner to keep noise and stone chips at bay. It also means it requires nothing more than a quick wipe-down with soap and water to return it to the way you see it here! At the Motor Car Group, were enthusiasts first. We want you to enjoy your new car from the minute its delivered and the trailer door drops. Before a car leaves our shop, its gone through comprehensively, both visually and mechanically.
