The Martini Mustang is Loud & Fast Art

  • For Steve Strope of Pure Vision, turning his idea into loud and fast art is something very few fabricators can dedicate themselves to. His concept was created from a "what if" moment, where he imagined Ford and Martini Racing teaming up to dominate rally races across Europe. Powered by a 1966 Ford/Lotus Indy Car motor, this fastback Mustang is serious business when it comes to performance. Much like a watchmaker who knows the purpose of each moving part, Steve's design signature can be found hidden in the car's details. As enthusiasts spend hours discovering new pieces crafted for his Mustang, Steve smiles from ear to ear and is envigorated to start his next project. Nothing has been left untouched and everything on this Mustang is meant to set your imagination on fire.

    The flush bumpers, that underside with the beautiful exhaust, interior, not to mention the engine! This kind of build quality is almost unheard of.

    Steve- you Sir have hit the nail on the head with your explanation and how you feel about the mustang. I couldn't have said it any better. You have the drive and courage to create what every guys thinks but doesn't do. I have a 66 mustang and understand when you say we like the creative process. You Sir are a gentleman.

    @timremington5696 11 лет назад

    Sincerely, I can't tell you enough how much I love this channel. It truly, honestly, captures the automobile enthusiasts passion. I'm Japanese - born and raised. I've owned an S30z - so I loved the piece done a few weeks back about the 240. And I've owned three first gen mustang fastbacks - 65, 66 and 67. Loved them all. The mods done to this car aren't my particular taste, but to each his own. It's a beautiful, unique car. Good job, bro. Absolutely love it. .

    You keep bringing great stuff. I would dry hump this car. The recessed bumpers. the gaps of the panels, the interior bits. I could look at this car in person for hours. I am an import guy primarily but I love how this is done..not over done. I respect people like the ring brothers but to me this is how a muscle car or any car for that matter SHOULD be done. Congrats Mr. Strope.
