1967 Ford Mustang GT500 "Eleanor"

The Project
The 1967 Eleanor profile is arguably the most recognizable silhouette in automotive culture, but vintage mechanics often fall short of modern expectations. For this ground-up restomod project, we stripped away the vulnerabilities of 1960s architecture and engineered a powertrain that delivers contemporary drivability, precise throttle response, and terrifying muscle-car power. Beneath the custom-sculpted hood sits a hand-built, blueprinted, and balanced 451 cubic inch Cobra Jet engine stuffed with heavy-duty forged internals and a sophisticated FAST port-injection EFI system. For the moments when absolute dominance is required, a cleanly integrated Nitrous Outlet single-stage plate system is locked and loaded.
