\"1960<\/a><\/p>\n

This pro-touring project called “Falcoonigan” was born from a desire to be different and a 1960 Ford Falcon purchased on eBay for $800. The owner started by building a custom chassis featuring a Fatman Fabrication Mustang II front suspension and 2015 Mustang GT independent rear suspension. He added custom floors, roll cage, and Ridetech adjustable coilovers. The power plant is a second generation 5.0 L Coyote V8 that should make around 460 horsepower thanks to long-tube headers and tune. The V8 is mated to a 2015 Mustang GT drivetrain using a six-speed manual transmission and independent rear with a LSD and 3.55 gears. You can view more photos and follow the project’s progress in the build thread<\/a> or Facebook page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
