1967 Ford Mustang Eleanor pro-touring!

[Mathi]

Hi,
My name is Mathias from Belgium and I'm building my dreamcar since October 2013. My idea was simple, just follow my idea without listening to other opinions... And on this moment, I never regret anything I did on the car.

The history of the car:
In 2009 I bought a 1967 Ford Mustang GT 500 Eleanor recreation by Stangaholics, CA. After 5 years of fun with the car, I decided to upgrade the car with some features. I Always wanted to have modern technology in an old car. So first idea was just to swap the engines but after several small issues I started to rebuild the whole car.

Some pictures back in summer of 2013.

In octobre 2013 I pulled the Roush 427R engine out of the car after some issues. Also some dents and scratches were on the car that I want to fix.
After some other issues with the car we started with full disassembly.

In meanwhile I designed my new Eleanor in my head and the more I thought, the better the idea was!

After full disassembly we started to smooth the rear bumper and installed rear tire tubes for a wider rear wheel...

After that we started to work with the CNC side scoops..

And bodywork goes further and further... Making some progress with the fit of the doors...

Our custom roll cage... Started from the original roll bar after the front seats.

Our engine... It's an LS (yes I know and no I don't care) by Nelson Racing engine with an X-ram system. It's a LS 474 (8.1L) and delivers 700 hp.

Tranmission is a Tremec T56 magnum 6 speed manual.
