The next-generation Ford Mustang will be revealed in September, but now there is also a new version of the original pony car.<\/p>\n
Famed custom car builder Ringbrothers has unveiled an entirely new vehicle based on the 1964.5 Mustang convertible that it built for a client.<\/p>\n
Well, it still has the wheel center caps from the original car, but everything else has been custom fabricated.<\/p>\n
Working from CAD data, the team actually scaled the body up an inch in length and width and combined it with the modern in-house designed chassis it uses for many of its projects.<\/p>\n

At a quick glance, it looks like a lightly modified version of the car on the outside, while the interior is a more updated interpretation of the original’s, although it retains low-back seats popular in the period.<\/p>\n
“The client was highly involved in the process and adamant on maintaining a subtle, stock-like appearance,” Ringbrothers co-owner Mike Ring said.<\/p>\n

“Everything was cued off the Mustang\u2019s original design, but we sharpened the lines and added a number of 3D-printed details to make it truly unique.”<\/p>\n

Things are much more modern under the surface. The car is powered by the same 5.0-liter V8 featured in the current Mustang and uses a 10-speed automatic transmission.<\/p>\n
