Tom, I’ve always enjoyed going along for the ride in your customers cars and I can fully understand why some owners might be reluctant to let you SHOW the awesome powerhouses that you create. But reluctant flew right out the window for this test drive. The hardcore burnout into fourth gear was BEAUTIFUL, man ! I especially like choice of Fords 10 speed automatic transmission for this build. Any negative comments about this particular transmission would have to come from people that have never experienced its amazing performance firsthand. Automatic transmissions in stock trim aren’t normally associated with powerful engines and I didn’t expect much from the one that came with the 2020 Mustang Ecoboost that I rented recently. The 2.3 liter Ecoboost engine is the base engine for the Mustang and isn’t as well known as the powerful 5.0 liter Coyote engine in the Mustang GT. The turbocharged and intercooled Ecoboost is rated at 310 horsepower and when coupled with the 10 speed automatic transmission, it becomes a well balanced, TIRE SMOKING combination. By choosing the “DRAG STRIP” performance mode, the transmission becomes a beast. The torque converter stall speed loosens up allowing the turbo to spool up quickly, the shift points are raised to the 7000 rpm redline and the shift firmness hits incredibly hard. With the traction control turned off and the transmission left in “drive”, it will light the tires shifting into 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears. And like your Revology Shelby burnout, it will roast the tires on into third gear. I love power shifting a manual transmission because of the old school mystique, but Fords 10 speed automatic is definitely a good choice for hardcore performance 👍.
Another excellent example of First Class workmanship!
Absolute Masterpiece! 👍

I happen to know the owner of this beauty.
I hear he can’t really play a note😝
@@jasonsinay2336 Ha!
I love all your cars and what a wonderful tribute.
Beautiful craftsmanship! What are your build times?
Revology: Brilliant!
NICE as always!
Magnifique, votre travail est exceptionnel, merci à vous de nous faire rêver 🤘🤘🤘
my accountant & i are sooo happy they dont make a '67 convert
There was a Fender Mustang guitar complete with GT stripes.
looks grea in inca silver with no stripes, i assume that hood scoop is blocked as it only has an aesthetic function as do the side scoops
It's getting to the point where I can't watch these videos with my pants on 😉.
Great video great car!.. It can do without sequential tail lights though..... At least make it so it can be ordered slightly cheaper without them.
Is the body the same spec and dimension as the original 67 GT500?
No Elenor stripes? 🧐
Have you guys ever built a 69 Mach 1?
Is there any difference between the shelby gt 500 and shelby gt 350's body style?
Eleanor?
Lets roll the windows down so you can hear the engine better......GUITAR MUSIC!
Sorry sir but I'm a gibson man
