If it's title as a '65 Mustang it would be allowed.

Rick, per the rules for 2014, no ABS, AWD or traction control unless in Late model class. Rule #13 on second page of rules (post#3) of Jody's post: https://lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=44759

Bob take a late model Porshe C4S AWD chassis and put either a twin turbo Porsche or LS engine in it. That platform has been called the 'ultimate sticky device.'

Do it. You know you want to..

Late model Taurus SHO or Cop car. Turbo V6 all wheel drive. Good parts availability. Ford in a Ford.

I was thinking this would be the drive train for my next project, but I am glad that GoodGuys pulled the plug on AWD. No way can a rear drive full bodied car keep up with a short wheelbase AWD T-bucket. Now I can focus on the car I have and my driving for next season.

This doesn't look very pro-touring.
