Coyote Swap Fox Body Build - Mercury Rising Ep: 6 - If You Build It...

In episode 6 of Mercury Rising, we pick up where we left off after installing the front windshield and rear bubble glass. All new components were added to the vehicle to really modernize the ASC McLaren. The car was outfitted with a custom set of one-off wheels for the icing on the cake on the exterior.

The wheels are such a compliment and well chosen. Good job on that. I also have a T-56 Magnum, and man they shift so so smooth. Love'em.

[@latemodelrestoration]

We took our time making the final choice on the wheels we wanted to use. These really turned out better than expected.

[@phild1470]

Everything the “other” mustang channels wish they were. LMR knocking it out the park!

lmr.com/item/LRS-5212PR/86-97-Mustang-LX-Stainless-Steel-Tailpipes with lmr.com/item/JES-MF1236/Jones-Max-Flow-Performance-Muffler I also installed these on a 1995 GT . Fit great on both.

[@ChuckG92]

Now it's no longer a one of 150 '85 ASC/McLaren. Now, it's a one of hundreds of thousands of modified Fox Bodies.

[@fedrooster]

Chuck Griffiths kind of a shame, isn’t it?

[@ChuckG92]

@@fedrooster Indeed, it is. They had the capacity and budget to so it right, then acted like a teenager who just got an inheritance.

[@CrossShot4]

I'm not trying to be rude, but I don't understand why you guys are putting all that money into this car just to give it back to the dude who let it get this bad to begin with?

[@fedrooster]

I was with you until you started adding all of the non factory pieces. It is no longer a special car. I’m out.

[@samusia1224]

Please change the host this kid is so hard to watch its painful.

[@dirtshart]

You lost me at coyote swap.

[@latemodelrestoration]

A Coyote Fox is not for everyone! However, we wanted to build this car with a Modern Driveline to have the creature comforts of a well Street-Mannered Fox with over 400 HP to the wheels. We really wanted to make a one-of-a-kind ASC McLaren Capri and the T56, Coyote was the way to go with build! We appreciate your desire to stay Pushrod! It would have been a sweet build with one of those too. Thank you for your comment.
