To car manufacturers and some high end builders: THIS is Hot Rodding! No need for 1,000+hp and bunch of turbos. THIS is real!! I need 30 minutes of driving and no talking. Music and enjoyment. Thank you sir for building this amazing Stang.
Guys who don’t know how to drive or only want to own a car to show off can’t understand how fun a naturally aspirated little sport car really is. People only care about numbers, not the actual experience of driving. I would much rather drive an rx2 with around 100 horsepower than a modern turbo’d 1000hp car all these people lust over these days. These carbuerated stangs can really only hope for around 400hp NA with an upgrade block and every possible race upgrade to the motor, and they are still way more simple and fun than a hellcat or a Supra. Then there’s also how much power is actually usable… if you’re breaking traction in every gear and giving 1/10th of the throttle needed to go everywhere, it’s not as fun of a driving experience as a car with power bands, that you can wind out and go through the gears in to make fast. Straight line racing is over rated. I want a canyon carver.
@@AutotopiaLA sounds awesome. Funny when I pictured canyons in the description, I pictured New Zealand tight roads.-These are almost superhighways where I come from.!
Jay Leno talks about that all the time. When a car is set up right with the right power and weight balance, it's more fun to drive than something with too much power.
I REALLY like this man's attitude, and how the car clearly looks like he drives the absolute snot out of it. Props to him for actually enjoying his car!
@@AutotopiaLA Amen to that, man! I aspire to one day have my own version of my dream car, and essentially be pretty much like him with it lol. It's very refreshing to see a super cool and fun car being properly driven and enjoyed as it should be. 😎 P. S. - I know you've heard it 1000 times, but yes, that thing sounds MEAN as hell. I absolutely love the exotic high-revving sound coming out of a car that looks like that. Awesome build, and great vid. 🤙
Back when my father in law had '66 GT 350H (automatic) a daily ummm driver . At a Mustang Anniversary Car Show he's got it displayed, some lady walks up looks comments "It's filthy..blah blah blah" in disgust. Thinking to myself wonder what she drives. Saw her later parading putt putt along in pristine 65 GT 350 trailered garage queen . Bet that ain't "A Grocery Getter" 🤣
@@WineFi Yeah, like the classic old saying, different strokes for different folks! I don’t think she needed to come up to you and make fun of you because your car was dirty and what not. But either way, we all know that she’s not REALLY enjoying her car. I’m not saying you need to beat the living hell out of it. But at least drive it! Take it on a spirited back road drive or a road trip every once in a while! To her, that’s just a show car. Oh well!
This reminds me of my first true build I ever did in 1976. I started with a 1965 Mustang coupe. Paid $400.00 for the car. 289 4sp. Took an article from Hot Rod magazine on a strip/street 289 build to my local engine builder and said built that exact motor. HR claimed the motor as built would produce 425hp+- on premium fuel. Had the T&C top loader completely rebuilt and upgraded the clutch and shifter. Added a 9" with 4.11 gears. Pistons were 12.5/1 comp, roller cam, Holley 750cfm dbl pump on an Edlebrock hi-rise. Gutted everything I could out of the car to save weight. Added a roll bar, upgraded the brakes and suspinsion. Painted it Candy Apple Red. Only got one ticket over the next two years. Best 1/4 time slip was around 11.8 on Super Stock M50/15's smoking the tires the whole way. The car looked great and sounded better. So much fun to drive. Actually met my future wife at the drag strip while racing it one weekend in 1976. Still have the wife. Car is long gone but what great memories. I put my headphones on and listened to Daves car pulling gears, close my eyes and am transported back in time. THANK YOU
Being a classic car fan, the mustang is impeccable and sounds great. The exhaust sound is way different from anything ive heard. Sounds like a racecar.
I am 76 years young, if I owned this car, I know that I would be getting Tickets often as I Love the Sound of going through the Gears in a Muscle Car. The Birth of this Mustang was my Era...
Carroll Shelby would be proud... love the original look, rough, and road ready....straight up street machine. car is badass, not a ford guy either.. but this exact combo is perfect. this is what people fell in love with back in the day
Always love an owner who encourages the guest driver to give it heaps. Made my Easter monday. Sydney, Australia, 5.0 Windsor, 5 spd Tremec, LSD, IRS, in an Aussie built Ford Falcon.
What can you say but this is a real muscle car. Little beat up, old carpet and a sound that can't be beat by cars 10 times more expensive. Outstanding work!!!
By far the best car/owner duo. That car is an extension of that owners personality and character. Love that fact that he drives it like beast because thats what they are for, show cars are cool but this man his making life-long memories
I love this guy, he would have been my best friend back in the sixties. I've had several small block fords including a 65 mustang hardtop. Great fun. The young guys have missed so much in the past 50 years.
The exhaust note of the last engine was beyond amazing....this engine and exhaust note is beyond words.......sooooooo cool... I could listen to his forever!
Actually your hearing ability stop after about 30 mins in a car like this without hearing protection, wear ear plugs because you can still enjoy the sound but you won't damage your ears
there should be an ASMR video or something of the sound of this car, i almost cried listening to how intoxicating and addictive this car sounds, i own a 16 Shelby GT350 and fell in love with how it sounds and i cant drive it like a normal human because of how intoxicating and addictive it is, until i heard this, and now i feel like this is the best sounding V8 i have ever heard, i am a proper gear head and been around all sorts of muscle cars, exotics and owned quite a few of them, this single handedly took the win for me, much respect to the owner and Autopia for showing us this car
What a unique, high strung beastly sound that car makes. I love the fact he builds his cars to drive the piss out of them as intended. Whether it's all motor or boosted, small or big block, 500 or 1000 HP +, owners that truly understand how to drive their cars is a treat our senses as viewers.
There have been some amazing cars on this channel over the years. This is hands down my favorite one. The guy is just enjoying this machine. I love what he does with it. This car deserves to be driven this way. There are enough restored garage queens out there already.
This is the way to build a classic car. I love cars like this that are not show cars and you don't mind taking it out and having fun with it. My wife's uncle has a 70' mustang with a 302 that he put a modern 5 speed in. It's nothing fancy and he daily drives it, no concern for getting it dirty.
Finally got my 1st $$ paint job around 2010. First time out of the paint shop tow truck guy did damage...fixed it, got stuck in a downpour first drive. Laughed about it, cars were made to drive, use it or lose it! DIdnt "get ruined" by the know it alls back then.
The idea that this car is driven for fun and not to be pampered in anyway is the best......I wish there were more cars out there like this one.....this car wants to be driven hard......what a gem!
It sounds the way it does through phone audio, hard to imagine it sounding better in person but it definitely does. No modern car can remotely compare.
This is by far my favorite car you have ever shot. Super cool dude and the car is freakin bad ass. If I could pick one guy to take me for a ride it would be him. It’s just a simple beast
Technically it's a 302 because 302's and 289's are the same block(4.00in bore) The pistons/rods/crankshaft are what separate them cubic inch wise.This guy just put a 302 rotating assembly in this block so now it's a 302.
Didn't he say that it's a 360? That the builders dynod other 360s and made 550 to 600hp. They're not revving high enough for the math on a 4.8l, but 5.8l at 560 to 600hp with that kind of RPM makes more sense.
The beauty of the Ford 289 firing order and the built valve train ignites a smile on my face. That sound is tuned to sooth the soul and motivate you to kick some ass! Thank you for this one, just remarkable y'all, thank you!
I grew up going to Road America in the '70s and '80s. For my money, This is the single best car you have reviewed! It literally Screams Race Car! Where's Tomy when you need him, eh?
Completely agree, grew up around road America, have a lake home close, love hearing the cars in summer. I'd love to hear this car scream around road America and the twisty roads that surround!
Not gonna lie, hearing this car damn near brings tears to my eyes. I love it. I have a 90 Supercharged 302 Fox and I want it to sound like this! Carroll would be so proud of this machine.
I’ve always loved Dave’s personality. Seen him being interviewed before. Dave drives the balls off the car and brings the sound of hell coming down the road!
I love the used look on the car and how the driver drives it. If I had a car like this, I would probably daily it. The used look really gives it some soul
I love seeing a high reving 289 instead of someone else swapping in something massive, and I love seeing a dude who doesn't care that the car doesn't look perfectly pristine. Bro just wants to drive the car and have fun.
You were right, this car is wicked, it's bold, it's raw, it's wild... It cannot be more Mustang than this one, it's a reference. No matter newer ones are quicker, faster, whatever, when we think about a TRUE Mustang, this is the one to remember. Man I'm glad I came back and subscribe to your Channel. Thank you to bring us this master piece of a car on YT. Cheers from Montreal, Canada.
Since the first reveal ive been a fan. All the cars and truck on here are superb, but this mustang has to be my favorite. You can literally see the soul of that car. And the owner drives it the way the car wants it to.
That gt 350 just sounds ........ Words can,t really describe it . Howls then screams. Stunning for sure , like it's turning 12 grand. love it for sure.
Absolutely one of my favorite cars you’ve ever shot, and just in general, building a 65’ 350R clone, that I’m drawing so much inspiration from Dave’s car, I’ve got a 67’ cougar with a tunnel port 427 side oiler and a 4spd that would be good company for Dave’s car.
This is about as close to perfect as you can get. I used to work with a guy who had one in 1967 he drove the hell out of his. Unfortunately a drunk driver hit him head on and back then it went to the junkyard. Hopefully it was eventually found and rebuilt. This is how Shelby intended the cars to be used.
Holy crap that resonant sound at 6K and up is just a gorgeous harmony of automotive accomplishment. Gives me goose bumps over and over again just hearing it. I'm a GM guy but have to admit that this Ford is probably just about the best sounding V8 I've ever heard.
Brings me back to High School and guy in town had a build 289 with a radical cam and 4 speed. Of all the cars you have reviewed this is my favorite and I’m a mopar fan. Natural
Absolutely freaking phenomenal! As wonderful as the first version of this GT 350 sounded, this actually stepped it up, which truly is amazing! What a beautiful and most wonderful machine you’ve got there, my brother! True love at its finest! Congratulations my friend, what a dreamboat !!!
I love this guys attitude!!! Just drive it and have fun. A lot of people are so focused on hp and looks instead of just driving it and enjoying the experience Such a great video!
Exactly!! Current build is same way. Plenty of compression nasty solid roller, manual trans deep gears. Fun just cruising along at 40 listening to that cam that still isnt smoothing out yet
This. Is. Awesome. I can understand the desire for people to collect cars but I never understood people who didn't drive them and work them. This guy is awesome. I love the fact he drives it like a sports car and makes it work. His attitude is like ehhh.. if it breaks I'll fix it and drive it some more. Awesome. Just awesome.
Love this guy.....he's truly certifiable......thanks for giving Fords some love. Small block Fords are so neat.....been rodding them for years. You can wind a 289 or 302 until only dogs can hear them. Carroll Shelby knew what he was doing. LOL The sound of this baby sorta reminds one of a Porsche 917 at full song in a way. Shaun.....you cracked me up having the cigarette...Mustangs are better than LOVE!
I like this guy. "I dont care if is or is isnt, its not forsale and ima drive. it". Yessir. Cant wait to see that convertible. 8000rpm aluminum big block. Ohh man
Remember the exhaust sound from that electric cobra ….me neither, this is the experience I want to have driving in the canyons, raw and visceral. This is it !!!
I raced a 283 in my 37 Chevy Coupe years ago, it revved and sounded like this. I shifted it at 7000 RPM, believe me it is all you need for pure enjoyment. I have had blown stroked Hemis etc., but that little Revver was most Fun !
I bet that has to be such a visceral experience with the sound, smells and overall feel of that GT350. Hands down, makes every muscle car and race car sound in all the right way. Found myself just listening to him driving his car without watching it.
I got a 1966 Gt 350 Candy Apple Red with White Stripes It got a GT350 R block motor in Boss 302 4sp top loader with 389 gear Detroit Locker in it. I bought this car in 1971 for $1000 a great investment at the time don't you think it only got 62,00.00 miles on it too Bad ass car at my age of 70
And I forgot to tell you it flies also. All horsepower sound too. The car draw crowds when ever I go with it. Two seater with a fiberglass shelve in back when the spare tire is located. My parents had three kids my sister and my brother. All three of us has had mustangs. My sister had a bad ass 1966 CanaryYellow fastback my brother 1965 hardtop and then me a1965 Gt Mustang . I soup it up and use to drag race it. Didn't lose much. Then I bought the 1966 Gt 350 Mustang in which I still own today. So the Mustang was the car to own in those days and still even today they are highly sought after all those year.
Okay Shawn, you've heard me say before that I'm not a Ford guy or a Mustang guy...HOWEVER! The Shelby cars are pretty damn cool. This happens to be my favorite Mustang to date on your channel. It's real, it's driven, it's perfect yet not perfect. Dave has a real gem here! I absolutely love this car!!!! So badass!!!
I absolutely love this car and the cool drive it like you stole it owner. I've got a 65 fastback 302, top loader and 9". If I can get it to sound like that it would be perfect. I'm curious about the solid roller cam and lifters. What brand and does it require any mods to the block or heads other than the obvious beefed up valve train?
To car manufacturers and some high end builders: THIS is Hot Rodding! No need for 1,000+hp and bunch of turbos. THIS is real!! I need 30 minutes of driving and no talking. Music and enjoyment. Thank you sir for building this amazing Stang.

The sound of this car actually gave me chills! What a build and I’m so glad it’s built to be driven HARD. Carroll would be incredibly proud!
I agree👌🏾
Carroll would only want to rip you off if he was involved.
If every old school GT350 driver was like Dave the world would be a better place! Nice job building that wicked car!
Proof you can drive old muscle hard yet not abuse it.
Cars like this wont tolerate lugging, babying and sunday driving.
It never gets old!

Finally 18:42 he rips it up. Good God.
Absolutely one of my favorite cars you’ve ever shot, and just in general, building a 65’ 350R clone, that I’m drawing so much inspiration from Dave’s car, I’ve got a 67’ cougar with a tunnel port 427 side oiler and a 4spd that would be good company for Dave’s car.
A man that actually drives a mustang the way it should be!! Awesome Car, thanks for sharing!!
Congrats on hitting 1/2 million subs !
That gt350 sounds better than ever !
This is about as close to perfect as you can get. I used to work with a guy who had one in 1967 he drove the hell out of his. Unfortunately a drunk driver hit him head on and back then it went to the junkyard. Hopefully it was eventually found and rebuilt. This is how Shelby intended the cars to be used.
I found myself shouting at the computer screen , my god that gorgeous sounding small block , that sound will be sadly missed one day .
Fuck these goose stepping, sieg heiling Nazis that want to take real cars away from us.
It already kind of is. To my ear, modern engines, including n/a V8s, sound a bit synthetic, if that makes sense.
lol why the hell are you yelling at your screen? Go do some pushups
@@accord_aero_rnew v8s don't sound as beefy as these small blocks.
Holy crap that resonant sound at 6K and up is just a gorgeous harmony of automotive accomplishment. Gives me goose bumps over and over again just hearing it. I'm a GM guy but have to admit that this Ford is probably just about the best sounding V8 I've ever heard.
That car is everything I want my fastback to be! That car, your guys attitudes, and love for drive are fantastic!
Just love the sound and the old school build and look...no computer daily in just simple raw sound and horse power 💪😀. All the best from Denmark 🇩🇰
The best sounding car ever shown on the channel and build pure intoxication
Brings me back to High School and guy in town had a build 289 with a radical cam and 4 speed. Of all the cars you have reviewed this is my favorite and I’m a mopar fan.
Natural
Absolutely freaking phenomenal! As wonderful as the first version of this GT 350 sounded, this actually stepped it up, which truly is amazing! What a beautiful and most wonderful machine you’ve got there, my brother! True love at its finest!
Congratulations my friend, what a dreamboat !!!
He’s got such a perfect Mustang
I love this guys attitude!!! Just drive it and have fun. A lot of people are so focused on hp and looks instead of just driving it and enjoying the experience Such a great video!
Built small blocks remind me of two stroke motorcycles. Love the high RPM sound.
Exactly!! Current build is same way. Plenty of compression nasty solid roller, manual trans deep gears. Fun just cruising along at 40 listening to that cam that still isnt smoothing out yet
could imagine living next to this guy. there goes dave goin' for coffee at 2 in the morning....everyone's awake.
lol!
This is by far my favorite car you’ve filmed. I’ve lost count how many times I have watched the original video.
Easily the best sounding mustang I've ever heard. Never get tired of that sound. Almost sounds like a formula one racer when he's got the rpm's up.
It’s an amazing sound up in the r’s
The sound of this thing gives me fucking chills. Hell yah brother! 🤙🏼
Most potent sounding small block I have ever heard. Thanks for sharing guys.
Best sounding Mustang out there…yes, I’ll be that guy, and mean every word of it!!! Right on Dave, Right On!!! 🤘🏼😎
Dave’s awesome and there’s nothing like his GT350
This. Is. Awesome. I can understand the desire for people to collect cars but I never understood people who didn't drive them and work them. This guy is awesome. I love the fact he drives it like a sports car and makes it work. His attitude is like ehhh.. if it breaks I'll fix it and drive it some more. Awesome. Just awesome.
Love this car. It’s Raw. Screaming power. Love it
That's the ULTIMATE all block Windsor right there hands down, the ULTIMATE!!
HELL to the YES ! ! ! ! Just got home from work, grabbed a cold snack and now THIS !
This is what car building is truly about at it's core,it's building YOUR car out,to YOUR specifications. Sidenote: your mustang sounds incredible!!
Love this guy.....he's truly certifiable......thanks for giving Fords some love. Small block Fords are so neat.....been rodding them for years. You can wind a 289 or 302 until only dogs can hear them. Carroll Shelby knew what he was doing. LOL The sound of this baby sorta reminds one of a Porsche 917 at full song in a way. Shaun.....you cracked me up having the cigarette...Mustangs are better than LOVE!
gen1 chevys can do that also .At a certain rpm they get kinda quiet....ish .
I like this guy. "I dont care if is or is isnt, its not forsale and ima drive. it". Yessir. Cant wait to see that convertible. 8000rpm aluminum big block. Ohh man
Remember the exhaust sound from that electric cobra ….me neither, this is the experience I want to have driving in the canyons, raw and visceral. This is it !!!
Good lord, that exhaust note is something out of Nascar. I absolutely love the rawness of the car and street fighter look. Wicked build
Smiling,, I l love that beautiful sound and best mustang smiling
I raced a 283 in my 37 Chevy Coupe years ago, it revved and sounded like this. I shifted it at 7000 RPM, believe me it is all you need for pure enjoyment. I have had blown stroked Hemis etc., but that little Revver was most Fun !
This might be my favorite car you've done yet. This dude rules
We need more Daves in the car community. Here for good vibes, hard driving and most importantly pure fun!
Dave is the absolute man! 🤟
I bet that has to be such a visceral experience with the sound, smells and overall feel of that GT350. Hands down, makes every muscle car and race car sound in all the right way. Found myself just listening to him driving his car without watching it.
Loving the Wooden Sterning Wheel sick GT350
This car is pure cool
I got a 1966 Gt 350 Candy Apple Red with White Stripes It got a GT350 R block motor in Boss 302 4sp top loader with 389 gear Detroit Locker in it. I bought this car in 1971 for $1000 a great investment at the time don't you think it only got 62,00.00 miles on it too Bad ass car at my age of 70
And I forgot to tell you it flies also. All horsepower sound too. The car draw crowds when ever I go with it. Two seater with a fiberglass shelve in back when the spare tire is located. My parents had three kids my sister and my brother. All three of us has had mustangs. My sister had a bad ass 1966 CanaryYellow fastback my brother 1965 hardtop and then me a1965 Gt Mustang . I soup it up and use to drag race it. Didn't lose much. Then I bought the 1966 Gt 350 Mustang in which I still own today. So the Mustang was the car to own in those days and still even today they are highly sought after all those year.
Just a perfect car i think. Looks awesome and sounds amazing. I love the rooster walking around. Lol😂.
Hands down my favorite car ever, just an absolute raw example of a gt350 nothing like it
This old dude clutch kicking 2nd gear burnouts should be an aspiration for any of us.
He's not old dude! 😂
Grey hair dont mean old. I was going grey in my 20s
I was grinning ear to ear watching this. This is the best sounding car in the world (to me). Thanks for sharing this so we can enjoy as well!
Okay Shawn, you've heard me say before that I'm not a Ford guy or a Mustang guy...HOWEVER! The Shelby cars are pretty damn cool. This happens to be my favorite Mustang to date on your channel. It's real, it's driven, it's perfect yet not perfect. Dave has a real gem here! I absolutely love this car!!!! So badass!!!
Love it! Hard to not love this car and how Dave enjoys it
Absolutely my favorite car of all time. When I was a paperboy my neighbor had one brand new and I've loved it since then.
With an engine that sounds that good, who needs a audio system.
That car just brought out the child in this 52 yr old man. Now I have no choice but to build one. Just wow!!🎵🎶
It’s got me smiling and I’m not even driving the car 😂
Dude. I wanna know how much it is to build that.
@@Jay-rq8wb the whole car or engine?
I absolutely love this car and the cool drive it like you stole it owner. I've got a 65 fastback 302, top loader and 9". If I can get it to sound like that it would be perfect. I'm curious about the solid roller cam and lifters. What brand and does it require any mods to the block or heads other than the obvious beefed up valve train?
@@jonpowell5860simply just a x pipe setup
I loved the way it sounds.It sounds even better than it did before And how he hammers on it.
