1965-1966 Mustang
To produce an extremely popular car, with virtually no competition. That is exactly what Ford did when it began marketing the Mustang in April 1964. So, with little effort a new car was concocted using the Falcon chassis. A legend was born and the Mustang scored a world record of 418,000 sales by the end its first year of existence. |

This is my 1966 mustang coup V8. It's arcadian blue , it's still the first paint(so you can see).
I'm busy with an engineswap , the 289 is out and a 302 5.0 HO is going in there.
Also the C4 trans is out and a AOD is going in there.
In the rear is going 3.73 trac lock gearing. |

1965 Shelby GT350 Replica
|
|

We ( BB RallySport ) built this car as a Classic Tarmac Rally car to compete in Australian Rallies - we have succesfully competed at Targa Tasmania, Rally Tasmania and Classic Adelaide. The car is basically 1965 period spec with the exception of disc brakes on the rear .. 289W/Close Ratio Toploader/Disc Brake 9" with 3.7:1 Detroit Locker. It is fully race prepared including rollcage and all safety gear. It goes great and we've achieved several class wins ... It sounds awesome with the traditional Shelby style side pipes |
