Radical 65 Fastback, whats your ideas

[67 Evil Eleanor]

I am looking foward to my next build and would like to hear some unique ideas of maybe something you have though of doing.

Griggs GR350 suspension, cage, backseat delete, built 4.6 DOHC & T56 with Webbers and side exhaust.

Looks: 67 Shelby hood, Terlingua paint job (Flat black & electric blue), 17" Foose Nitrous, Scat seats, Shelby 1/4 windows? Small mustang badge in the grille ala shelby.

Really unique: Keep the stock apron and bumper setup and build smoothie chrome bumpers, then add a brushed aluminum adjustable front splitter. Delete the stock bumperettes, use 67 rear marker lights in both front and rear, painted body color. Shave the dashpad, build a brushed aluminum 6 gauge panel with S-W gauges and crinkle black trim, and put a brushed insert on the glovebox.

Minitub it and psuedo-flare the fenders ala Boss 302 and stuff the widest tires possible on it.

It's fun spending other people's money.

If I got another '65 Fastback for my next build, I'd basically make an R-model clone that appears basically original at first glance, but would be equipped with such mods as an aluminum Dart block/AFR head/Weber 48IDA induction stroked 351W, Griggs suspension with SLA front setup, through-floor subframes as I'm using on my current '65 street clone project, and keep it all non-power/no AC. My main goal would be to have a great show/autocross/roadrace car.

I have nothing against using modern technology in vintage Mustangs, but I just like to keep a vintage car fairly vintage.

Ditto that, with some Maier Racing flares front/rear and basket-weave style 3-piece wheels.
