Powerful Ponies: Five Restomod Mustangs Done Right

June 3, 2018

Enter The Dragon

This one doesn’t go to either extreme of the last two we mentioned. It’s neither a dream car from the year 2069, nor is it a minimalist masterpiece. Instead, this one, called the Dragon, is just a nice, well balanced Mustang. Built by the legendary Ring Brothers, this 1970 Sportsroof has retained all of its charm. It’s far more non-stock than it may at first appear. There are modern materials everywhere. Aluminum was used to make the seatbelt’s brace, and the logos and badges are either made of aluminum or carbon fiber. The body is finished in a beautiful Dragon Blood burgundy.

There’s a custom interior complete with Recaro seats and an Alpine sound system. It’s the mechanicals that are truly special though. The suspension has a Quadralink rear and AVCO shocks. The steering is custom by ididit, while the wheels are Forgelines with Baer brakes. The car’s 550 horsepower comes via a Roush 427 IR with 8-stack fuel injection, hooked to a Tremec TKO transmission. This doesn’t do anything too extreme, but it’s fast, fun, and gorgeous.
