69 Mustang GT2

[CptKlutz]

Hi from Denmark!

Been lurking for a bit, but registered now that my build is finally taking off.
I'm in the early stages of a 1969 Mustang fastback build, dubbed the GT2 for "Gran Tourismo" (in the italian original sense) and Turbo. Body is 90% done and close to paint, motor is being built and then we get to the fun parts: putting it together and getting it dialed in! Some highlights (not all parts are final yet):

Ford SB 363 stroker, DART block, all forged & roller, 0 balance, Arias pistons
Single T-76 turbo, intercooler
Big Stuff 3 ECU
BBK SSI-R intake
TKO-600 trans, McLeod RXT
TCP front coil over
13" Mustang Cobra brakes, 4-piston Brembo
TCP manual rack&pinion
TCP gBar rear with FAB9 9" & TrueTrac
18" Shelby CS56 wheels (custom)
Toyo R888 rubber, 245/40 and 295/30
Speedhut gauges
Bielstein seats
Rollbar & Simpson 6pt harness



Car is being built in CA but a lot of finishing will be done over here.

The car sounds nasty to me, but what he^ said.

OK, will put some up as soon as theres something of interest. Right now the body is just a very nice clean shell on a lift with next to nothing in it, getting readied for paint. Engine is just a bunch of parts, waiting for the last stuff to come in b4 assembly begins. Engne is by Total performance BTW, of recent Obsidian (Mustang) fame.

I'll post the rendering of the GT2 tonight when I'm at the other PC.

Not to change the subject but let me know if you are interested in a way to install the center caps on your front FR500 wheels. It involves removing the lip that normally retains the center cap to the wheel. I had to remove this lip just to get my FR's to fit (68 coupe) since it interfered with the hub. Here is a pic with the cap installed on the front wheel.


Beautiful car!

Thanks for the tip, I did figure it out since the picture was taken. Now sporting SVT caps.
