Built by Gateway Classic Mustang, a specialist in Pro-Touring Mustangs, this 1966 Mustang is a down-to-business, corner carver with a plethora of performance parts. This restoration is now 10 years old and has just under 4,000 miles. The car was a SEMA feature car, a BF Goodrich display car, and has been featured in magazines.
Featuring a solid original body free from patch panels, this 1966 Mustang received a bare metal base/clear refinish in standard Shelby colors. During the restoration, the car received all new glass, all new trim, new chrome and new rubber throughout. The engine compartment and undercarriage have been refinished in a clean coat of semi-gloss black.
The engine is a fuel injected 347 stroker that made 450 HP on the engine dyno. It uses a forged crank, Roush heads, a Comp Roller cam, JPA headers Accel ignition, and a Billet Specialties front runner kit. The rear gears are a 3.50 limited slip, and combined with the Tremec TKO 500, this car really rips around town.
The RSS front suspension combined with the Gateway 3 link out back make the car handle as if it’s on rails. The RRS Stage 3 brakes bring the Mustang to a halt in a New York minute and the large 17” wheel and BFG Comp 2 tires are a huge improvement over any stock set up.
The interior is straight business with the deleted rear seat, rollbar, and Autometer gauges and harness set up. All the wiring is new throughout the car, complete with a modern fuse box.
