Ford Mustang 1970 Description

This brutal-looking 1970 Ford Mustang fastback resto-mod cruises through traffic like a great white shark, the ultimate predator that's confident in its moves and knows it can handle any threat. The low-key silver paint not only keeps it under the radar, but adds a major dose of intimidation: it looks awesome, but being pretty is NOT what this car is about.The silver paint gives it a purposeful look, no question about that, but it's the details that really grab you. All the usual performance clues are there, from the chin spoiler and cowl induction hood to the rear window slats and rear wing on the deck lid. The sportsroof (that's fastback in Ford-speak) is unquestionably one of the best shapes of the muscle car era, and with black stripes to accentuate the silver paint, it looks fast from any angle. Paint and bodywork are quite good, so you'll be proud to show it off on cruise nights, but each time you park it, you'll be itching to get back behind the wheel as soon as possible. Hood pins, chrome bumpers, and some original-style emblems on the front fenders hearken back to the '60s horsepower wars, and it neatly straddles old and new, which is harder to achieve than you'd think. If your business is slaying Corvettes, you need a suitable office. With twin buckets that are neatly reupholstered to look original, this Mustang's cockpit is ready to go to work. There are fresh door panels and carpets, a beautiful dash pad, and a taut headliner, all of which look stock. Ford's original instrument panel remains, but now it's stuffed full of beautiful Dakota Digital gauges that are easily legible through the spokes of the smaller, fatter wood-rimmed steering wheel. There's no console, but it does have a slick-shifting 5-speed manual transmission, which is really the only reasonable choice on a car like this. There's also no stereo, but that's entirely on purpose so you can simply hunt all day, every day, and with ice cold A/C, you'll never complain about the accommodations. The trunk continues the seriousness with a simple mat and spare tire with matching cover. They were NOT fooling around when they built this car.How serious were they when they built it? How about 408 cubic inches' worth of Windsor stroker motor? It's a neat fit in there, but with cackling high-compression slugs inside, this one has an exhaust note that'll knock birds out of the sky. The list of goodies include ported and polished cylinder heads, Comp Cams bumpstick, FAST EFI system, MSD ignition, and a bulletproof bottom end. All told, it brings home a dyno-proven 468 horsepower and 568 pounds of torque AT THE WHEELS. Yeah, it's nasty. It wears finned valve covers and a Ford oval intake, but nobody will mistake it for a stocker. The support staff is impressive, too, including a big radiator with electric fans and the most outrageous set of custom headers this side of a GT40. A heavy-duty 9-inch lives out back, and there's a disc brake and Koni shock at each corner. And those gorgeous Torque Thrust wheels look amazing, especially wrapped in fat 245/45/17 front and 275/40/17 rear BFGoodrich performance radials.There are cars that look fast and then there are cars that ARE fast and form merely follows function. This Mustang is an example of the latter, and you'd better make it yours before someone else lines it up next to you. Call today!
