This Power Brake, ower Steering 1965 Mustang was professionally built and completed in 2007.

The body started life out as a Raven Black, code Fastback with automatic transmission and standard interior. Many body panels were replaced during the build with a minimum of body filler being used. I have photos of some of the steps taken during the build process. The car is painted with "Screaming Yellow", 2005 Mustang color. The black stripes are correctly proportioned according to Shelby specifications and were clear coated over with the rest of the paint. Shelby type front fiberglass fascia, ide scoops, iberglass hood and racing windows replacing the vents give the Mustang a Shelby GT-350 appearance. The underside of the car is painted gloss "Screaming Yellow" with black accents. The 17 inch wheels are Black Center American Racing Torque Thrust and were added to the car in 2012. "Cal Track" traction bars are welded on.

The entire interior floor including the trunk has been insulated with a "Dynamat" type insulation.
