description General Information Features and Options Car History We are pleased to offer 1967 Mustang “Eleanor” Restomod s/n 102105, which started life as a 289 V8-powered 1967 Mustang convertible before the recent massive “Eleanor” Restomod updates. Looking back in time, the 1967 model year Mustangs featured a wide body and a wider engine bay and front suspension, allowing Ford’s engineers to squeeze in a potent big block V8 engine to compete against the “big block” Dodge Charger and Chevrolet’s Camaro and Chevelle then coming to market in the muscle car wars, making the 1967 and newer Mustangs the perfect basis for today’s very popular Restomod Mustangs.Over the last five years 1967 Mustang RestoMod s/n 102105 was built without regard to cost and was treated to the best of today’s performance updates, including a Keith Craft 351 Windsor engine bored and stroked to 408 cid with an Eagle steel crank and connecting rods, Victor aluminum heads, all topped off with an intake Edelbrock manifold and an Imagine Injection Products billet machined 8-throat throttle-body induction system, dyno tested by Keith Craft at 500 hp with a massive 475 ft/lbs of torque at the flywheel. Cooling is through a lightweight and highly efficient A1 aluminum radiator and engine oil cooler. Engine management is handled by a Motec 8400 engine management system with dual lambda sensors and a Sakata Motorsports custom wiring system with individual coil pack ignition. Fuel comes from a stainless steel gas tank and all-new fuel lines.Power goes through a bulletproof Tremec TKO 600 5-speed gearbox topped off with a Hurst shift, and power is put to the ground through a Total Control Products push-rod 3-link rear suspension with a Watts link assembly and double-adjustable VariShock coil-over shocks, backed up with a 9″ center-section to control the massive horsepower and torque. Steering is by a Total Control Products rack and pinion power steering conversion, which acts as a rigid front reinforcing cross member. The adjustable steering column is also from Total Control Products. The McPherson Strut front suspension is by QA1 Products, and the front springs are Eibach. Brakes are Shelby fully vented discs with aluminum calipers and an ABS Systems electric power brake and booster. The power is put to the pavement through 8″ x 17″ front and 9″ x 17″ rear Unique Performance wheels and BF Goodrich G-Force T/A 245/40/ZR 17 91Y front and 275/40 ZR 17 98Y rear tires.Under-hood accessories include ceramic-coated headers, Global West front strut tops and control arms, Concept 1 serpentine brackets and pulleys, and a Powermaster alternator and starter.
