1965 Mustang FAST TRACK build at Roadster Shop

[RS-Chris]

With a decidedly GM and Mopar flavor from us the last few months, figured it was time to give the blue oval a little love. A few of you have caught this one in the background in other threads a few times, so here we go!

Joel dropped off this fantastically bland and slightly disheveled '65 Mustang fastback at the shop about 10 months ago. The plan would be a nicely refined '65 utilizing our full FAST TRACK IRS chassis and Ford 5.0 'Aluminator' motor coupled to a T56. Some subtle styling tweaks, modern interior refinements and materials combined with the new underpinnings should make for a great all round 'gt' style car. Highly capable, comfortable and stylish.

First task as always, full tear down and blast to see what we have:

You know it!
More teardown and out to be blasted. Outcome was not too bad. Some rust holes in various typical places, but certainly not the worst we have seen.

I was wondering when you guys would do a mustang. This thing is going to be killer.

Can't wait to see how this one comes along.

Savage framework! Those aluminators are wicked motors as well
