The original goal of that build was to make a road race car out of it but it came out too nice. So this build is making up for that one :).

I wasnt planning on buying this car until the Coyobra sold (if interested PM Me), But this car came into my lap and I couldnt refuse.

Its a 2005 V6 Mustang with a Manual. Straight body and only 2 owners!
Its gonna be a fun build

I think both turned out really well-

Can't wait to see what you do with this car op. Already looks like a racecar with the momo steering wheel and gutted interior. Have you thought of using an MGW shifter? What transmission are you planning to use anyways?

Did you weigh the car prior to tear down?

Dint have a chance, not that it really matters anyways since literally everything in the car is changing. The goal is for the car to be as close to as 3k as possible.

Dang, just saw your cobra for sale! Wish you didn't have this car, I could've offered my 2001 v6 mustang as a partial trade :(
Want to move to a S197 chassis like my street car so we could steal parts from it if needed. haha
