It&#8217;s powered by a 427 ci LS7 V8 built by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mastmotorsports.com\">Mast Motorsports<\/a> capable of 700 hp (514 kW). The motor features Harrop individual throttle bodies and Stainless Works exhaust headers. A Quartermaster Optimum-V twin-disc clutch transmits torque to a Bowler Level 2 Carbon Edition T56 six-speed manual transmission. From there a Driveshaft Shop driveshaft connects to a 9-inch rear end. The Mustang rides on a CorteX Racing Xtreme Grip Mustang II front suspension and multi-link rear suspension with a Watt&#8217;s link. Other upgrades include Radial-X spindles, \u00d6hlins double-adjustable shocks, and Eibach springs. Braking is controlled by StopTech six-piston front brakes and four-piston rear brakes. The classic body is covered in Wimbledon White painted with blue racing stripes. Completing the look is a set of Forgeline GA3 wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 (285\/30, 335\/25). The unique Mustang is for sale on <a href=\"https:\/\/bringatrailer.com\/listing\/1965-ford-mustang-756\/\">Bring a Trailer<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\"
