1967
Mustang Fastback
Weighing under 3000 lbs, our 67 FIA Fastback definitely qualifies as a lightweight but that doesn't mean we skimped on the interior. Inside is an equal mix of soft and hard surfaces. The transmission tunnel is exposed, bodyworked and painted bronze, matching the six point cage and wheels.
A full size race spare is stored under the back glass, made accessible by removable head rests. The horn button is from an arcade cabinet, a nod to Chris's career as a video game designer. There are a total of only five switches inside, a testament to the team's dedication to simplicity.
The mustang is powered by a 500hp, 364 ci aluminum small block Shelby motor backed by a TKX 5-speed. The sheet metal, though modified, is all Ford. No reproduction panels were used. The velocity stacks are machined out of Ultem 1000, a spaceage material developed for NASA that just happens to look amazing with the Porsche Brewster Green and yellow accented paint.
