    Chip Foose

    Over all I like what he has done. I would do a few changes to the car myself but just because I would like the changes, does not mean someone else would. When you look at the car, Chip and the builders took a 71 body and grafted it onto a 2010 Mustang chassis. It took a lot of work and a lot of...

    When I see it fully completely completed, then I will judge it. Right now it looks pretty good. Not sold on the 69/70 rear fenders yet.

    Chip Foose

    I researched that the 2010 had a 109" wheel base and the stock 71 has a 107" wheel base. I was wondering where the issue was going to be with the extra 2". But if you look at where the issue is, it is just modifying the front fender a bit. I wonder how the hood is going to mount on the car. Two...

    Chip Foose

    I just saw a pic from Foose garage with the coyote engine and trans fitted into the Frankenmach....That is my name that I gave it. If this was my car, I would have tracked down a 2013 GT500 5.8L supercharged engine and dropped it in. But my car is a "Q" code 351CJ car. I am so interested in...

    I think this is going to be an amazing build. Taking a 2010 GT500 and basically cutting off the body and grafting a 71 Mustang body to it is a great idea. I like that fact that the parts are updated to the 71 and the car will drive and react like a GT500. I am very interested in this build now...

    Rod and Custom coil over suspension?

    Well wouldn't most of the Mii suspension systems have modified that already? Look how many hot rods out there run a SLA system. I mean a steering box in a car with a bunch of links to a spindle and two rods running to the rad support to support the front end is an old outdated system. Even 1/2...

    Chassis and Suspension upgrades

    I know the Roadster Shop frame you have to cut out the floor and drop the body on. The Schwartz frame is a bolt in frame but is still very pricy. I was thinking a way to use the crown vic front end in the Mustang but no luck. next is companies like Rod and Custom but I want to use Ford parts...

    Chassis and Suspension upgrades

    So I am adding up costs of doing a SLA front kit and rear 4 link kit with the addition of subframe connector and brake systems to my 73. I am also looking at the Roadster shop and Schwartz complete frame systems for the same year. I have gone through a few build projects pages and have not...
