Some consider 1967–1968 Mustangs to be tweeners. They’re not as retro as they could be (if that matters), but they’re also not as stylish as the automobiles from the 1969–1970 model years, which underwent significant styling changes that made them appear much more aggressive than their forerunners.
Nobody is likely to actually despise 1967–1968 Mustangs, though, because Ford’s designers succeeded in their goal of expanding the car’s overall footprint. The style is still recognizable today, and how could it not be? Do you recall seeing Steve McQueen operating a 1968 Mustang GT Fastback in the motion picture Bullitt? Great stuff.

Speaking of epic, some people don’t like leaving well enough alone when it comes to American classics and might even go above and beyond in trying to create something truly bespoke. Case in point, this heavily modified 1967 Mustang Fastback, currently up for grabs to the highest bidder.

The body was extensively modded to where it now boasts raised front and rear wheel arches, plus custom fenders. Meanwhile, the car also sits on a custom chassis courtesy of Scott’s Hotrods ’N Customs, a Tennessee-based tuner. Other interesting visuals include the metallic red exterior with silver stripes, front bumper delete, billet grille, aftermarket front valance, fiberglass hood with pins, custom rear bumper, and chrome bullet-style side mirrors.

Then you’ve got the ‘Hot Rods by Boyd’ wheels, measuring 18-inches at the front and 20-inches out back, wearing Michelin Pilot Sport tires. Suspension-wise, we’re dealing with tubular front control arms, a rear four-link assembly, front and rear anti-sway bars, plus adjustable coilovers – this setup explains the vehicle’s super low stance.

Moving on to the interior, you have a rollbar, Ridetech harnesses, a Kicker amplifier with aftermarket speakers, air conditioning, a red shift knob, aftermarket pedals, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, and Dakota Digital VHX gauges for all the crucial information.

You shouldn’t anticipate a 289 ci small block V8 under the hood because it should be obvious by now that this is no ordinary Mustang. As an alternative, a 5.0-liter Coyote V8 crate engine with a custom air intake and an aluminum radiator with dual electric fans is what you get.

This power unit sends 435 horsepower to the rear via a Tremec six-speed manual gearbox. Completing the “vibe” is a custom stainless dual exhaust system with outlets behind each of the rear wheels. Overall, this has got to be one of the most interesting bespoke Mustangs we’ve ever seen. It’s not necessarily gorgeous, nor is it ungainly. It almost looks like a mix between a period-appropriate Shelby GT350 and a Ford GT, with a hint of Aston Martin V8 Vantage.

It resembles the latter from a rear ¾ angle, the Shelby GT350 from the front and the Ford GT when viewed from the side.
