Our concepts have always been taking the best of old and new. Merging the two together to get a car that looks like a vintage car but drives like a new modern day car. The key in our opinion is to get the car to keep all its classic lines but to incorporate the best today as to offer. We just received our new Ford Racing 5.4 supercharged engine. The chassis will be started very soon. Look for more updates soon.

Progress.. We received some new goodies today for the mid-engine mustang project. We should begin to build the chassis in the next month now that we have all the big pieces. We now have a Ford GT engine, transaxle, and all GT parts to make work. We have all the wiring, dash, console, seats. This one will be a Ford GT at heart but all mustang on the outside. Look for more to follow in the coming weeks.

Thanks

If anyone has tried to find GT parts, you know what an achievement that parts list is and how hard that stuff was to find. Just more details that will make this car top notch and one more reason I'm glad to be part of this project!

Thanks for the update...I was just about to post up asking for some info. I see you're going to incorporate a GT(40) aesthetic...an ambitious choice. :bow: I can't wait to see what else you have up your sleeves.

Look like Sparco Modena's with carbon fiber frames (from the back).

Sweet build guys!
