A Nascar inspired, Boss 429 powered, 845hp pro-tourer on an all new race inspired chassis.

Body
Another Southern California car, this was a solid daily driver with original paint (minus the front fenders and hood). The '69 fastback mustang has always been our favorite with the coveted Boss 429 being at the top of the heap. This is our chance to build one Ruffian style!

Chassis
We're using Speedtech's Extreme chassis with independent rear suspension. One of the key benefits to this chassis is narrow frame rails that allow much wider tires to fit under the stock fenders which means we'll be able to fit massively wide tires under our flared fenders.

Power
Ford used the Mustang to homologate the Boss 429 engine for use in Nascar and Jon Kaase Racing Engines builds the baddest, most powerful Boss 9s on Earth. This aluminum big block is topped with fuel injected ITB's and pumped out 845hp on the dyno.
