THE INSPIRATION-
As Jaded began, I set out to build a first generation (1966) Mustang, incorporate styling cues from modern Mustangs, and blend them as seamlessly as today's late model muscle cars blend vintage cues. Those subtle changes that draw you into the car for a closer look.
THE CHALLENGES-
It was extremely difficult to maintain proportion and balance while retaining the heritage.
JADED still had to look like a Mustang, not a Frankenstein collection of parts slapped together. Once the design was solidified, choosing components that fit the car and creating a cohesive well rounded package was the next challenge. Starting with a drivetrain from the legendary 2004 COBRA gave me a great head start on a bulletproof and powerful foundation. The Schwartz G-Machine full frame chassis solved many problems, including suspension, steering and most importantly, rigidity that would support torque and power into the 600 HP range.
THE DETAILS-
The feel of the 2004 interior gives the car a modern edge with seats that are heavily bolstered, 6 way adjustable, and very comfortable. The body had to be stunning, the color had to be right... and the timing of the Eastwood Contour line of products was perfect for JADED.
I wanted to show that you don't have to break the bank to get great results.
With well-chosen products, you can get a world class appearance that holds up to anything.
The proof is in the car - thousands of hours, pints of blood, many sleepless nights and the passion that we all share in this hobby... the drive to create something that is "our own" is manifested in JADED. I'm very proud of this project, and humbled by the many friends and manufacturers that contributed their energy and time. Now it's time to DRIVE IT!

Beautiful car, awesome job building it! It was this video that ultimately help me choose the new color for my project. Seeing the jaded green color in acton was all it took. Just ordered my paint, primer, clears and accessories from Eastwood and am ready for the task.. I'll be borrowing some of your clearcoat techniques laying down matte/gloss side by side as well. Thanks Kevin!
That is a beautiful 66 Mustang. My 65 had a different destiny. See Crush or Restore A 65 Mustang Story.
I love the use of the shelby gt500kr style hood and i love the dark green color. I also like the incorporation of modern technology headlights and the interior! Something i'd love to do. Good job
Derek from VGG brought me here... And I won't go away!
I wish they would of had more detail on the rolling chassis and suspension components.
Such a great build. Good job!

This mustang build was very well thought out excellent build quality Kevin is good at what he does it has old styling cues with modern drive train and suspension it is a sweet breed of Frankenstein anyone who says negative about this car has problems I think it is awesome and people need to think of the time and energy and thought process that went into this car?
nice car BUT sometimes we do too much to a car ,they did that here,to much modern on this classic.
You're 1000% wrong...
Is this like 1969 Mustang Black Jade ?
so this car is a shit bread of a 2009-1996-67 wow why not just keep one theme instead of taking parts from different years looks stupid sorry...
Thanks! Fantastic car, lots of work in that puppy. I appreciate the details. Beautiful.
The headlight, fender, hood, to grill body gaps are jacked. Nothing lines up there at all. At 1:06-1:08 you can see it plain as day. I would not have been happy with that being a final product. But that’s just splitting hairs to some I guess
Look again at 1:40,it lines up with the design they had in mind but still looks goofy
Great thing about a custom ride, you can make it any way you want. I wouldn't have done what Kevin did, but it's not my car. My first new car bought by myself was a white '66 Mustang coupe, a "dealer mistake"-someone had ordered the car with the 'K' code engine (HO) & a 4 speed & it came with a 3 speed on the floor, so I got a deal on it. It was a very quick car & I think I prefer the 3 speed over the 4 for getting out of the hole. I was wiping out MOPARs off the line with ease. :D
Dash nope, headlights and some of the contour work...nope.....basically everything else is spot on though. I don't mean to sound like a hater but certain new stuff looks cheap compared to the old. The taillights led conversion looks very chinese. Paint and metal work is awesome. And also....140 hp loss to the wheels? Something is not adding up?
Anyone know what wheels those are?
I like almost everything about the car. Almost because the green color doesn't do it for me. If I decided with a green it would be an olive colored. But overall it is a very nice ride.
These guys get it...thanks for having beautiful lights that are not beetle looking
Hey. I haven't seen information on what the frames out of ? Was it built just for the car or is it an existing frame out of another ride ?
Anyone monitoring?
What difference is there between this Jade green and the original 1966 R-code green from Ford?
Awesome '66!
Awesome car but can you fit golf clubs in the trunk? 👀
Why fuck up a nice car
Awesome Kevin, hope to do half this to my 67 fstbk!
How do you make those tail lights??
🤯
how did you do the black out for the lights?
Whats the exhaust - sounds great
Wow thats fukin nice!
Sweet. Would be better in red
This was at SEMA! Beautiful car!
Is it a manual or an auto? I'm sure it's a manual but want to be sure
why does it matter?
The Por 15 that was put on the window trim where it use to be chrome. How was it done? Was this sprayed or brushed on?
...and I want to know why they used the POR-15, which can get plotted when exposed to sun, instead of their Ruse Encapsulator or another Eastwood product.
Maybe they used POR topcoat as well.
Mark Snelgrove POR also has a paint you can use in sun exposed areas. It doesn't fade.
640 crank hp and only 500 wheel hp, I hope that's a miscalculation, cause damn that's a lot of parasitic loss.
i doubt either of those are accurate. unless its a totally built bottom end and head/cam work
beast !!
i dont like the color..but Still badd ass! respects
ugly car stick to one theme headflights lame, tail lights lame, color ugly, drive train too modern
they ruined a classic you dont make classics look like stupid modern shit buckets... that front should of never been changed.
Says who? It isn't your car. This build is gorgeous. You're what's wrong with the car community.
are people making them or this is the only 66 that has all that? cause if so then ima try and get a 66 and make it to that jaded project but a little of my own flaire. amazing car though man, love mustangs and with that cat, if I had the money I would buy it in a mili sec
