Truly a work of love and mechanical art!

[@Mr.Cool_X_Man]

Awesome stang! Wanted to see more of the spoiler!

[@TheSmellofGas]

Yeah, the spoiler has been custom modified my the owner. He did a hell of a job with the specs on this car. He also painted the headlights the yellow tint. Another great decision. 👍

[@chriscomer1472]

I love how he fit a 427 stroker in the car without doing a shock tower delete ...

[@bjsteg79]

It's a windsor block 427. Take a 351 (302 with a 1" taller deck), bore and stroke it out with a kit, viola! You have a 427 that will fit where a 302 will fit.

[@chriscomer1472]

@@bjsteg79 I just started my journey doing a 65 coupe restomod and was thinking 347 stroker ... But now Im thinking 427 🤣

[@bjsteg79]

@@chriscomer1472 I'd start with a standard 351 roller. Drive the car for a couple years and sort out everything, because there will be linkage issues, heating/cooling things to sort out, drivetrain fixes or tweaks, suspension & steering adjustments...etc. Then when you feel ballsy, go for a the 427 build. Stroked motors tend to overheat, the 347 is the max on a stock 302 block. 302s have a tendency to split in half (literally) when you start pushing 450 ft/lbs torque. 427 stroke is the max on a ford 351 block; a 408 is actually pretty stable and still putting down 500-600 hp with good heads & cam. If you get a man-o-war or dart block, you can stroke the 351 out to a 458/460, which is big block territory and 150lbs less weight in the nose.

Bad ASF!! he has everything someone would want in a 65. Hats off man, badass car

[@TheSmellofGas]

I agree with you. It's a killer 65!💯👍

[@JoefussGarage-jl1bb]

Well, for those people, who can write a check, 😉 in just as happy, for this guy, as I am for garage rat, building all him or herself.. My self included, as I'm building a 65 GT350 Kinda Tribute as well.. No sweat equity snobbery here. Love his ride, and his passion...

[@DroneStrike1776]

No everyone has the capabilities and time to build it themselves. Does that discredit a car enthusiast?

I need this motor! That 427 makes my 302 sound like a punk. 🤣

[@tjbreaux681]

Does anyone know the offset of those wheels. I’ve seen plenty of people ask him but all he says is that they’re 18x11

[@TheSmellofGas]

The owner of this Mustang is on Instagram @steadydipped.

[@historyv350]

Did you buy it as a project? How bad was it to start out? Excellent build 👏

[@TheSmellofGas]

The owner can chime in to provide more details, but it's my understanding that he started with a good straight stock mustang.

[@steadydipped239]

I did buy as a project car. It was actually a great starting point as It had a 289, straight body, no rust, primed, & ready for paint. Thanks!

[@bjsteg79]

"We got the uhhh pan hardrod" man, it kinda irks me when guys buy their car and don't know what the heck they got. (btw, it's a panhard bar) They don't give a crap about the car, they're just worried about how they look in the car. That's not a car enthusiast.

[@bjsteg79]

Don't get me wrong. Not everyone has the skills or time to build their own car. Running my own business for the past 12 years, I appreciate guys laying out a build and working with shop to see it done. You can have all the money in the world, and zero time to get the car done in a timely manner. But those guys can tell you what cam is in the motor, what the lift and duration is, what jets they're running in their carb, what gear they're running...etc. They can fix the car if it breaks down on the side of a road. This guy is calling a tow truck and trash talking the shop online.

[@daltonnash465]

I never understand people that spend this much money on a performance build and then put an automatic in it.

[@jonbarnett6132]

Because it's THERE build, if they don't want to endlessly shift thru traffic that's there prerogative. Btw having a manual doesn't make you more manly dude.

[@daltonnash465]

@jonbarnett6132 Yeah, and it's MY opinion! Then why not buy a low rider or a tesla if you are sitting in traffic?? Yes, that may be true, but in a car that is built for racing, it does make you in more control of the car when you are on track! BTW, commenting on someone's comment online with no repercussions doesn't make you more manly either DUDE!
