- Typically we're showing pretty radical custom built vehicles which we love. But we also have appreciation for simple, well built vehicles that are built to drive. This car is built to drive. With the engine, transmission & rear end from a 2014 Mustang and a few other items, this car is just a blast to drive.
Enjoy!

With the curb weight of a 1967 being almost a 1000Lbs less than a modern GT AND with the newish Coyote motor- That weight to power ratio will hurt a lot of egos.
You get it. That’s why the 450 ish hp is a non issue.
450 is more than enough
@@AutotopiaLA That's what's irritating when people say something like 340 hp isn't enough. When in reality for something as light as a subaru or Mitsubishi it's more than enough. It's the weight that counts.
@@americanball_2841 Both aspects count
@@jmacruisecontrolfc8753 thats fair
I'd take that over a new one any day.
Hell yeah, this pony has a soul
Of course with that coyote in it and the 6 speed. Makes a new car.
Love this line of comments here guys!! Perfect blend of old and new. And it drives sooooo good!
@@AutotopiaLA I tell ya. I'd keep it my daily.
Hand deyown
Finally a Coyote swap classic that doesn't have wheels that make it look like a giant Hotwheel. Seems like 17" is the rim size limit on looking good in those old wheel wells.
Totally agree. I love the simplicity keeping the heritage and look with better performance and driveability.
who cares what type of build you call it..i know everyrime you hut the loud pedal you giggle..i did watching.. Great car!
Yeah when I had my 66 protouring built I wanted it to look like a sleeper little do they know its a coyote swap lol
Should use 22 spinner wheels and hydraulic suspension, with neon and sound system and everything
@@Gigamegasmoll I see you set the r woosh trap...
I like that build. It's not overdone, it's subtle and clean.
Perfect blend of old and new making it a great driver and class looks
The '67s and '68s were the best-looking Mustangs I feel they ever made. This looks incredible.
Completely agree
David Muse. I prefer the 69
@@kristoffersparegodt420 To each his own, man. I hope you get one if you want one. Thumbs up.
David Muse. I also like the 1972 Ford Gran Torino
I agree!
Rich kids get the lambo, a man’s man gets this green machine
You get it! I’d take this one gladly.
right
I rather be rich.
@@youtubecomments5951 no you wouldn’t
It has the charm of an old Mustang, with drive-ability of a new Mustang!
You get it. Exactly
What exactly about old cars made them less driveable? Sounds like you don’t have much experience with older cars.
@@chuck_machine I have 64 Nova and a 2012 Mustang GT. The Nova has a built Vortec 350 that runs low 12s, comparable power to my Mustang, but the Nova only has a 3 speed auto with 4.11 rear gears, where as the Mustang has a 6 speed and can cruise at 80 MPH and get 26 MPG. The Nova is a bare bones raw power kind of car while the Mustang has power and creature comfort!
Seeing a lot of these early fastback coyote swaps, I need to build one.
these are the types of mods I can respect classic style, modern drivability, subtle touches on the interior. Best modded car I've ever seen
I’m with you. Best of both worlds.
I agree. I’m a huge fan of these classic cars that are tastefully upgraded. The old school cool mixed with a little bit more modern performance is awesome!
“All simple, subtle stuff.” And very capable with 6-speed and tight suspension. That faded black plate! Things ready for a fight! Very nice!
Yeah, really cool simple build. Drives great. Looks great.
Car looks tremendous. A restomod without it being over the top. Speechless. The passenger could not wipe the smile off his face.
It’s a perfect blend of old and new for sure
Excellent combination of old and new, classic appeal with modern components. Highly desirable!
Best of both worlds. Modern components. Classic looks. Lovely
Totally agree. Love the blend of both worlds. And it drives so good!
I love that it sounds like a pushrod motor in this car with the mufflers mounted mid-way like that, sounds more old school, this is a build I wish I could do some day.
Couldn’t agree more man. Perfect blend of old and new. And it drives great!
Definitely one of my absolute favourite build's, on any channel. So clean and simple.
This might be the ultimate Mustang build. Simple. Clean. Classic lines meet modern muscle. Nicely done.
Modern engine’d BULLITT!!! Great!
That's 68' not 67'
Close. 67 not 68 but sure looks close. Killer driver!!
You got it
Will Herb yes I know, I was merely stating... I’ve got a 66 coupe, 67 GT500CR and a 68 GT500KR... type on TH-cam, Shmee150 Shelby GT500KR and you will see my KR, very rare, factory special orange. Take look: ‘Shmee150 Shelby GT500KR’ enjoy
AutotopiaLA hey! Take a look at my Shelby on SHMEE150 CHANNEL, just put in ‘Shmee150 Shelby GT500KR’ in TH-cam search bar and you will see my GT500KR in Factory Special Orange. Since you love cars I’m sure you will love it. 🙂
"Hold on man, 'cause here we go!" What an awesome clean build. I love fastbacks, specially in that green!
Yeah man!! This is such a cool simple fun car to drive. Love it!
@@AutotopiaLA I've already seen this video, commented on it months ago and TH-cam is recommending it to me again. It seems your channel is on boost!
I just picked up my late brother-in-law’s 67 fastback from his garage. It’s been parked for over 36 years. The car is in excellent condition considering its been parked that long. She’s completely stock. 6 cylinder engine, 3 speed trans and 4 wheel drum brakes. I don’t have a plan for her just yet but I will soon!
That’s awesome! What a cool story
Excellent execution of classic and modern elements coming together without getting ridiculous!
I love the coyote engine's steady idle. That makes it sound very high end!!!
Shawn, you're really lucky to drive and hear it!!!
I’m lucky getting to drive so many amazing vehicles! Love it 👊
I would have done the same thing if I had that kinda money. I love how stock it looks too, tastefully done car!
Perfect blend of modern but all the classic heart and looks.
I agree with you !
You could do the swap for a third of the number he threw out.
Sound/stance/power/gauge pack/six speed/American Racing wheels/paint/Two piston brakes are all perfection to me. AND it is a ‘67 with clean quarter panels. I prefer to the ‘68. Love it. Thanks for the ride Autotopia. Time well spent.
Glad you enjoyed it. I love the blend of old & new done tastefully like this car. And it’s a blast to drive. I’d drive it daily if I was the owner.
Now this is a car I can get excited about.....great original styling with some power. Concerning power: If some is good, more's better, and too much is just right. Subtle and clean as a hound's tooth. He got the sound of the pipes just perfect.....I could listen to this thing all day forever. Glad he stuck with 17's and didn't go with "cartoon wheels". Nice.
That’s exactly how I would want a 67 if I had one. Love it.
Perfect Street Rod. Thanks for Posting
Glad you liked it. Perfect blend of old and new. Fun driver
Perfect build. Exactly what you want. It's a reliable street car with amazing looks.
Very nice build. Simple. Clean. Reliable. Can't beat the Bullitt look.
damn all these cayote swaps making me wanna swap out my engine on my gt
It sure works well. Great driver
I'll keep my Windsor stroker
They take boost nicely too.
A nice short throw long lever Hurst shifter would be a nice touch.
Or an old rock crusher.
simple, clean, subtle is what it's all about....for me leaf springs are for stagecoaches so i'd do coilovers in the back as well but, otherwise, powertrain-wise, i'd do exactly the same thing.... this has got to be one of the best looking mustangs i have ever seen...
Nice build, had this nutty idea of rebuilding my 89 with a 5.2 voodoo and a 6 spd. Tremec.
Great job!
I’m a 14 year old kid that loves muscle cars and hoping to get a ‘67 coupe for my first car, this is definitely a dream build and something I want to do when I have the money to do it. Thanks for sharing this beauty Shawn! Great video as always!
Awesome!! Glad you like it. I think this is a great combo of old and new. Love it!!
Never give up on your dreams kids. NEVER. If you want it bad enough, you can have it. Carpe Diem bud!
@@kevinmatthews9469 This guys right. Restoring a 68 mustang coupe with 289 and 4sp right now. Been sitting in a field for over 20 years put my back door. Was my dads and his brothers car got passed around our small town till it set.
Perhaps I didn't iterate my comment properly. I was completely agreeing with you and encouraging this young man to chase after the exact case that he wanted.
Johnny Dulak...bless you young man
Gorgoeus car and build. Been waiting for someone to do a old mustang with a coyote!!
Yeah, really cool and simple enough to enjoy and have reliability.
I mean plenty are out there, this one is incredible though.
Oh haven't seen one
I'm really liking these more down-to-earth builds I've been seeing lately .
I get it. I love em all
i'm a ford guy, thank you for this Shawn!
You’re welcome. This was a fun shoot. Great car!
351 windsor stroker kit to 427 i would rather have one of these than a coyote motor ! just think of 550 hp with 650 ft/b of torque ! and easy to get old parts cheap = but he has a fantastic car and really well done ! thank`s.
I hear you and I could go either way on this
Ronnie Boucher I have a 351W in my ‘94 Bronco but I would go with a TT 5.0 Coyote for that Mustang. Why stop at a 427 Windsor? Might as well drop a stroked out 500+ CI Ford 460 big block? 460 big blocks can be had for $500 for a complete motor all day, sure the parts might be expensive but so are the 427 stroker parts for the Windsor.
Old and new. Best of both worlds. Great build.
Agreed 👊
Amazing! Best of both. Classic muscle with modern tech
The tail lights on a 67. Very sleek
The coolest of Mustangs imo
Love it just needs that chrome near the hood straightened
Yeah. The intake was pushing into the hood and over time it bent the front. Driver not a show car so fuck it...drive it hard!
nothing but the best of varities in mustangs for all situatons on this channel so far,,,love it!!!
Thanks man! We sure are trying to keep bringing the best modded vehicles around. And I guess I have a certain passion for Mustangs.
IMO there is nothing modern out there that can stir the soul like an old muscle car, my favorites the 67-68 Mustang whether slightly modified resto mod driver or a more sorted pro touring (tough for using daily here in NYC) or 70 Cuda at the same build level...although I love your brother’s black on black 70 .....the E-body Cuda is the one that stirs my soul..... maybe throw in a Mark Stielow 69 Camaro in that equation just to round out the big 3 garage list and I would be a happy gear head! Once I get my financials in order, I will be able to get a replacement for my stolen one.
Keep up the great work !
Thanks man. I sure miss having my brothers Cuda here. That was a great old build. And I love the simplicity of this car. Perfect blend of old and new. And it drives as good as it looks.
Sounds AWESOME like it is begging to be tamed.
Or begging to be treated with respect instead of driven like a teenager.
The 69 is still my favourite classic mustang. The 70 is a close second.
Classic body with new drive train, the best of both worlds. Very nice.
Very cool. I've loved the fastback Mustangs since I was a kid
They really need to correct the shape of the hood.
It’s a stock hood?
@@aliceshaw8265 the hood does look bad. You can bet they did some serious firewall and tunnel modifications to make the 6 speed fit.
It's already been explained. Read a little and move on. Even a high school shop student, can read.
Just done right, looking stock. I’d even go one step further and put original GT steel wheels on it...
Keep Ford, Ford!💪
That’s simple yet so perfect. Absolutely love that. Great work as always brother
Thanks Ross. Killer simple build that looks great and is a blast to drive!
How could anyone NOT just love this Mustang?
Killer.
That is a nicely put together ‘67 Mustang. I love it!!
I agree. Fun simple build that drives and looks great.
A nice example of a 67 fastback, good looking ride overall but sounds like every other new Mustang on the road.
I would rather hear the exhaust note of a 390 FE engine over that coyote crate engine any time.
Can’t agree with you on the sound though. Much more open and throaty than another modern Stang. To my ears.
I’ve got a 68 GT FE390 fastback still in LHD in Australia. The ONE reason I bought it was because it was original. Wherever I go it gets looks from all generations just because it hasn’t been messed with. Each to their own I guess but as a kid “Down Under” I drooled over this car. I’ve owned it for some 6 years now & each & every time I look at her, I smile, crank over that monstrous 390 & for a time I am Steve McQueen.😎👍🏼
Yeah, I'm not a big fan of the way the Coyote engines sound. Fwap! Fwap! Fwap! Sounds like it's puking valves out the manifolds.
What a great looking car with an awesome driveline, I love everything about this build, to those that think 130k is a lot of money you couldn’t buy the car and parts for less than that amount and you would still have to paint it and build it.
I’m in Australia and builds like this are in excess of 150k I know as I had one built.
Glad you’re one of the people that understand. Too many people think these builds cost nothing and that over $100K is crazy. This is a perfect blend of old and new.
How did I miss this!? That is a perfect combo!
One word: SLEEPER!!!
Total sleeper
The front of the hood looks like beak ?
I know, right? Not sure what’s going on there.
That hood is bent.
Beautiful work, its crazy to think of how much that car has appreciated and the dollar has been devalued that the "original working mans sports car" listed at $2,368 in 1964, today is worth $100,000. I'm in awe of something that could appreciate/depreciate like that. even adjusted for inflation thats over 5X the cost of the original, amazing.
I've owned 5 Mustangs in the past and 3 of them were 67 Fastbacks to me by far the sexiest of them all.
100 percent done right, love it :)
Agreed. Totally with you
These days, with all the choices with drivetrains, suspension, handling &stopping, not to mention paint and other cosmetic enhancements... $130k isnt really that bad a price tag in my estimation. You dont go into this kind of time/dollar expense unless this is what you truly want (or you really dont mind DEBT!) and to have something that is uniquely your own in some way ... building a ride dont come cheap!! On another note, I love sound of that exhaust!! Something 50+ yrs old shouldnt have a sound straight out of the 80s! lol Well done!!
Awesome comment! You get it. The dollar range on this is not bad considering what the final result is. Looks great and drives great. And that sound😎
this proves that all those 200k and 300k pro touring restomods are overbuilt...
Pretty much a perfect build couldn’t ask for much more. These guys that put like 20 inch wheels on these old cars that just don’t belong on them this is the perfect size i would’ve put wider tires on though. What a dream car.
More money in that car than in many houses around here. That said, if I could afford it, I would do the same. Great combination of old and new. I love 60s fastback Mustangs, and to have a 5.0 Coyote under the hood...nice!
I bought a 69 sport roof in Jade with a factory Hurst 4 speed. I was planning to do something like this. When I got home from buying it, I realized the previous owner had put two full binders of service records he and the original owner kept. I felt it would have been blasphemy to hack away at such a clean, well documented classic. Sold it and got a run down 68 Camaro I’m almost done with.
Smart and respectful in my opinion. Build a beater not a collector. Would love to see the Camaro when it’s done.
Thank you! I’ve owned my 68, J-Code, 4-speed GT Fastback for 42 years and would never do anything like this to my car. I agree, leave it to the beaters, not the documented classic👍
$120,000?! 😂 hell nahh I would guess 40k max for everything.
Yeah, not sure if they included the car itself into that calculation...and say you obtained the coyote and transmission from a salvage car, as well. Then you'd more or less only be paying for the salvage car.
Sounds like he is throwing a California number on that price😂. In NC you can buy a Fastback in decent shape under $20k and then buy the motor and what not online for under $10k depending on mileage. Then other steps so should all be under or around the $40k mark
@@jamiecreech9192 Must be nice. The further north you go, the harder it gets!
I was just gonna say, what financially illiterate idiot would spend 120,000 to build that car. 40k max, I can buy an entire brand new coyote drive train for 15k and that's not even trying to find one on craigslist or wherever. And you can get a nice well kept mustang with maybe an inline 6 for like 10k. Then the rest just goes into brakes, suspension odds and ends here and there and the work you need to do to fit the coyote in the car if you dont do it by yourself.
John Arceane yeah man, that’s why I always tell people look online for cars on the East Coast. They made so many of these cars and people in North Carolina just have them sitting around waiting for restoration
This is a great car! I'm happy with my mild tuned 68 fastback ,but this beats it by far. Nice video .Thanks !
Yeah, really great driveable reliable Mustang. Sleeper
The sound is perfect for that car
I don't know what those cables are, hanging near the rear wheels, but it's scary.
Don’t like those either. E brake lines.
Steve McQueen had no problem driving his 67/68 the way it was..
Nope. But I’d bet he’d love more power, brakes, suspension and a little more tire if he could’ve had it. So would the stunt driver.
@@AutotopiaLA Actually Steve did most of his driving....and when a turn was missed by mistake, the director kept it in the movie.
Thats when you could tell that the car had a split rear end...no posi........
AutotopiaLA I think he'd probably say that people should stop desecrating classic cars, flick a cigarette out the window, and leave you standing in a non-posi cloud of smoke.
@@FancyAnimal really? Lol
Tasteful, great looking and fun to drive. Great machine!!
She sounds so great! I like The retro and mixed in with the new school
Front is too naked.. suspension elements and everything behind the grill is too visible... Otherwise great looking and sounding car
Thats why when i had my 66 done i hid everything! gotta go for the clean look th-cam.com/video/Szbia63RUbQ/w-d-xo.html
That car wasn't that nice when it was brand new off the show room floor.
I like how it's updated with modern more dependable technology, but still has the classic look of the fine cars of the 60s.
Yeah, I think it’s a perfect blend of old and new tech
IMO this is the right way to resto mod a classic. Modernize in subtle ways that it you still clearly know what you are look at. I used a similar approach with my RX-7, though my focus was mostly performance while retaining something that could almost look factory.
I absolutely love this build! Excellent video!!!!👍👍👍👍👍
120k for this mustang seems dumb high for a fast back with a coyote and fresh paint.
And suspension, brakes, interior...if you do the work yourself would be much less of course.
Rich Americans and their toys....trying to buy cool...
Right i would find something better then a mustang for over 100k
I’ve seen really nice custom restomods for the same price. This car shouldn’t be worth more than 75k max
Driven Not Hidden Agree I thought they were going to say 75k. I was a little off.
Looks nice but something is wrong with the front end It just doesn't look right . Passenger side seems to be dipping down a little a d that grill needs to go .
the center of the hood is pushed down at the grill should be straight. look at the chrome trim where it connects to the passenger side hood to fender the gap is tapered.
Wow awesome job ! Love all he did to this stang, 67,68,69 the best mustang body ever built even over all the new stuff period, but the modern updates make this car just over the top so once again congratulations on the great job well done !
Well done 67 . A high school buddy had 67 fastback, blue. He a built 351 Windsor, 2 4's high rise .It was barely streetable!
But it was his daily driver! He was also a Japanese exchange student and a serious gear head.
I really appreciate the genius of keeping things simple.
This is an excellent example of what to do with an already great muscle car and modernized for today's practical means. 👍👍
Amazing work! Just can't get past the hood. It's like a beautiful woman with pink eye.
😂😂😂 hilarious! Yeah, the bend at the front is a bummer. But drive it for a few minutes and you forget about it. And yes, it needs a little love.
Lol that about sums it up
If you can pick the car up for 40k then the engine & trans for like 18k then suspension parts wheels tires all in for about 75k then 50k for some shop to do the work. Shit do the work yourself then you could have that car for 70 to 75k
Yeah, but what if you don’t work on cars? The owner is a business owner and family man and paid to have pro’s do what he can’t do. Makes sense to me.
@@TheRobertChannel Doing the work yourself if you don't have the know-how, space, time or the right tools doesn't make sense at all. Swapping in a Coyote in ANY Ford unibody is hard. Shock towers needs to be removed, or relocated at a minimum, for clearance. you need to convert to rack-and-pinion-steering. The old steering box isn't going to work. Getting a modern rear end to fit isn't a bolt-in-and-out job either. The guy would probably spend equal to the building-cost in tools alone and then you add in the knowledge to perform it.
Many a project has stalled because people run out of talent. It sure looks easy on TV. Take it from a guy in the hobby (me): It's not as easy as it looks. Not even the simplest of tasks.
@@LifeofnotBrian Lol there's no way anybody I their right mind thinks you need a modern rear end to lay down the power. Ford 9 inch from the factory.
@@landonfranklin1170 Power is one thing, but what about handling?. The 9-inch can take the beating, but an IRS is far better if you want to go fast(er) around corners :) A live axle will always be a live axle. Then again, there are pros and cons about everything. It all comes down to what you want the car to do (or do with it).
Another great one there,this was tuning harmony,that stang got just the right touches to push my buttons,i always loved the 67mustang but with modern technology/power/drivability in it,this is just the perfect car for me.Now i first have to rob a bank and move to the USA to get one lol😅Anyways great car and great video as always👍✌️👉
Great car with just the right amount of updates!
ENGINE NOT MOTOR
Love the color/colour, interior and enjoyed the clip.Respect from Brisbane,Australia.
Thanks! I love the simplicity of this build. Built to drive!
Awesome ride, simple, discreet and too much fun👊💯👊
Yeah, really cool simple tasteful build.
Man what a way to spend money on a beautiful car. Great blend of both worlds, with reliability. I love it. It’s weird hearing that coyote sound coming from that though! Forget wasting money on a Lambo or Ferrari. I would gladly take this thing any day!
I’m with you all the way here 👊
Old style, modern reliability. Best of both worlds
Everything about this car is perfect
Agreed. Perfect blend of old & new 👊
That car is amazing. Color is perfect, I'd want a white leather seats because I like green/white contrast. If it was convertible definitely a white top.
in love with this build.
Very tastefully done and money well spent ! Great video.
I agree. Thanks for watching. Fun car to drive.
Simple weekend drive car nice, love the motor sound good.
Totally agree. And reliability.
those coyote V8's are one of the best sounding engines in the world!
Beautiful, 10/10. Although I was never a fan of quarter louvers. And I would put a Pony badge up front.
that car is awsome build to drive enjoy the finish product
It’s such a cool driver. Taking it today to get some work done and looking forward to driving it again!
Had green 67 Fastback. Pulled my 351 Cleveland out of my 70 Mach1 and put it in the 67. We did some crazy shit back then.
Hey Shawn another good vid man you guys rock. Really nice clean build- I think the Stewart Warner green line gauges would be perfect for this car but hey- it's a sweet ride. About 20 some years ago I had a chance to buy a 65 fastback or a 70 camaro rs- same guy owned both. I got the camaro and loved it but man that stang was nice too. Thanks 👍👍👍
70 Camaro is my favorite Camaro ever. Such a cool car
Bro I been binge watching your vids on my breaks , great channel
Beto’s Garage thank you! We have a lot of fun shooting vehicles we think are badasses
