You wanna play Bullitt in your driveway?

[CaptainHenreh]

Here's your opportunity.

Sort of.

So the Bullitt Mustang was 68 Fastback with a 390 and a 4 speed.
This is a 66 Coupe with a bored-out 5.0 and a 4 speed.

Bullitt Mustang was chased through San Fran by Mafiosos in Dodge Chargers.
This is chased through Winchester by Mexicans in Honda Civics.

Bullitt 'stang, green. Driven by Steve McQueen.
This? Single stage red (same color as my old Nighthawk), driven by...YOU? I mean, you're no Steve McQueen but I bet you could make it work.

So here's the scoop:

1966 Ford Mustang Coupe.
Originally 6 Cylinders, now with a built late model 5.0, bored .030 over for 306 Cubic Inches
-eagle forged rods
-stock crank
-Speedpro forged pistons
-Speedpro rings
-comp cams .512/.512 lift 280 degrees duration
-Comp Cams roller lifters
-Comp Cams valve springs
-Comp Cams pushrods
-Crane Cams spring retainers and keepers

Ford 9" Rear end
4 Speed manual

Unibody-up resto, not that the chassis had much cancer to begin with. Build pics available.

Probably could use a tune on the Dyno, but it runs pretty good.

Shitty pics, better ones forthcoming.
I'm letting MM & Associates take first crack at this. It's my Father In Law's, and he's got project fatigue from building this thing. He'd LIKE to get $8000USD for it, so if you know anyone who'd be interested, let me know. As I gather better pictures and more detailed information, I'm probably going to put it on Craigslist, then Ebay.

Much sexier in person I can promise that!

Does the cowl vent leak?

[CaptainHenreh]

Does the cowl vent leak?

Not AFAIK.

[WRXtranceformed]

HO much want! Lowered with aftermarket modern wheels. Evil thoughts...evil thoughts...

[WRXtranceformed]

I'd like to see more pics of this thing...

[NTIman]

Heres a video of me making sure the tires would spin: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOK6MhGi3y0">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOK6MhGi3y0</a><!-- m -->

Does this car have AC? i forgot to ask you rex. Im not hugely knowledgeable on classics but i do feel like they had AC in cars at that point..haha

[CaptainHenreh]

No. Bolt-in kits are readily available, run about 1300 dollars.

[WRXtranceformed]

Oh boof, that puts a dent in my want factor. No AC in a southern cruiser is brutal.

[WRXtranceformed]

Any more pics of this beast? Still seriously considering~~

[CaptainHenreh]
