SPECIAL UPDATE:
CHECK OUT THE `68 COUPE AND `66 FASTBACK BELOW FEATURED ON THE COVER OF MUSTANG MONTHLY FOR AUGUST 2009!!
1968 Custom Eleanor Coupe
We just finished the above coupe for a local customer, Chris Werlhof. This Mustang started out as a plain 1968 coupe. It went through a complete ground up rotisserie restoration. We installed and made many modifications and upgrades to this Mustang throughout the build. Click on the above picture to view the photo gallery. The gallery will take you through a picture tour through many of the features and upgrades on this custom Eleanor coupe.
We are currently getting this beautiful '66 Fastback ready to drive on the road. This Mustang has had a total rotisserie restoration from the ground up with plenty of custom features. We added a modern independent rack and pinion coil over front suspension and a fully adjustable 4 Link rear suspension. The engine bay has been cleaned up with the shock towers shaved and the inner panels smoothed. All the wiring to the engine is hidden and out of sight. The 302 engine has dual cold air intakes and is backed up with a modern T-5 transmission. The interior is completely custom on this cool yellow 'Stang. It has a completely modified dash with smoothed features and a wicked custom billet aluminum gauge cluster. Modern air conditioning and leather interior upholstery keep the driver comfortable while driving.
1969 Shelby Clone Fastback (R&D Vehicle)
This 1969 Shelby Clone Fastback is our latest shop Research and Development vehicle. We used this fastback to test the fit of our new 1969-70 Shelby fiberglass parts which are now available for purchase online or over the phone. We have worked for many months to make sure this fiberglass kit will be the very best fitting kit on the market today. Before we made our molds, we test fit all of our prototype pieces on two different Mustangs. Then, we made any necessary adjustments to the fit and finish to make all the pieces fit as well as possible to the existing sheet metal parts on the uni body.
As you can see from the pictures in the gallery, we have achieved our goal of making the parts fit very well right out of the molds. As always, all the parts are hand made with the highest quality raw materials available.

We Recently had the 1970 Boss 302 Mustang from Season IV of the T.V. Show Overhaulin' in our shop. The vehicles owner, Hector Perez, wanted a modern Tremec TKO 500 Manual Transmission System installed in his Overhauled classic. So we partnered up with Keisler Engineering and Ford Racing to Overhaul the Overhaulin' car with a new short throw 5 Speed Modern Transmission. We performed the swap in a matter of days on Hector's sweet ride. We also had one of the editors for Mustang Monthly & Mustang and Fords Magazine present during the complete process. The entire installation will soon be featured in an upcoming MM or Mustang & Fords issue on newstands in the near future.

This is our latest project car that we built for NFL football player Christian Fauria. This car went through a complete ground up rotisserie restoration, with attention to all the details. Early on in the planning stages of the build, the customer made it clear that he wanted a car that would retain the classic lines of the 1968 Mustang, but with a little bit of a modern touch. Plus, the car had to handle up to par with a modern sports car instead of like an old classic 60's 'Stang.
Through the build we replaced all of the original suspension with a state of the art Coil-Over suspension and power rack and pinion out of a late model Mustang. To complement the performance suspension we went with a completely modern drive train powered by the brand new Ford Racing 5.0 Engine under the hood. The result is a car that possesses outstanding custom exterior looks along with the performance to back it up.

Ray's 1967 Shelby GT350 Clone
This car was brought to our shop to get all the finishing touches. One of our good friends, and a customer of ours, has been putting this car together for the last two years. We installed a modern dual A-Arm independent front suspension with power rack and pinion steering. We also upgraded the suspension at all four corners with 12" drilled and slotted Wilwood brake upgrades. The car has a 347 Stroked engine pushing 520 hp. This 'Stang is one super fast ride. Look for this car to be featured in MM & Mustangs and Fast Fords in several articles in the near future.
