Description
Imagine yourself in the driver’s seat of this Velocity Signature Series 1968 Ford Mustang. and experience a classic American pony car that exhibits a masterful blend of vintage style and modern power that hits the road with a roar. With this early Ford Mustang restomod, you’ll no longer have to choose between driving in style and comfort—because this Velocity build allows you to enjoy the best of both worlds.
The exterior is a nod to the legendary style of the classic Ford Mustang with its unmistakable Fastback roofline, but as always, Velocity has taken the Pony Car’s look to new heights with a custom BASF Glasurit Acapulco Blue paint job and painted white racing stripes. With its 17-inch mag-style wheels, Mach 1 chin spoiler, and LED taillights with sequential turn signals, this Mustang strikes the perfect balance between retro flair and fresh, updated detailing. Brand-new chrome, glass, and weather seals ensure that every element of this car looks as sharp as it performs.
As is the case with all classic Ford Mustang restomods built by Velocity, this Acapulco Blue example rides on an advanced Roadster Shop Spec Chassis and features a Gen III 5.0L Coyote V8 under the hood. This build stands out from most other Velocity Ford Mustang builds because it’s equipped with the optional six-speed manual transmission, ensuring this classic can be enjoyed as the car gods intended. The chassis setup features coilover shocks and four-wheel Baer performance disc brakes that deliver an adrenaline-pumping experience both in straight-line acceleration and carving corners.
Inside, the cabin blends nostalgic design with thoughtful updates. The signature dual-brow dash immediately recalls the Mustang’s roots, surrounded by low-back bucket seats and a wood-rimmed steering wheel that take you back to the era of American muscle cars. Velocity has seamlessly added modern touches like a RetroSound Bluetooth radio for wireless connectivity and dual cup holders for convenience. The all-black interior, crafted with Velocity Leather and accented by chrome details, delivers a refined, luxurious feel.
Don’t miss the chance to drive an iconic American classic car that has been completely modernized and reimagined for modern-day drives. Read more about this Featured Build.
