- My friend Ethan Ruff told me about a '65 Mustang that we had to shoot. Ron built this car to race at Shelby events and other track days and it's a beast. Fully caged. LOUD. Dog Box transmission from NASCAR with that beautiful "no lift shift." This car is a bruiser making over 600 naturally aspirated horsepower and it is loud. Technically street legal but honestly this is a race car so sit back and enjoy the ride...

I admire and love the fact he kept many things period correct- wheels, suspension, brakes, no high-tech nonsense.
No high-tech nonsense? Lol
It makes nothing but sense to do high-tech upgrades to older cars so that they perform better
@@petrolhead8851 go buy a new Mustang, Camaro, or Challenger. Keep old cars old. There are literally millions of "high tech" cars on the road to choose from. There is nothing like driving a vintage car that is still vintage.
I had a 4.57 posi 9" rear in my '65 fastback. 289 hi po w/4 speed. Street/ strip,red & red interior. It was pretty fast for what it was. 8.30 in the 1/8th on 7" cheater slicks. I had more fun with that car than any other. I'm 70 now & still wish i had it! This black one is insanely beautiful! Turning 7,000 rpm all the time,i definitely needed my tach!ps.i gave $650 for it in 1971! LOL
This is one of the coolest cars yall have had on here. Absolutely love it. I would bet money there is room for more holes hahaha.
Thank you to all involved
Banging gears in the New Balances. Love it!
I have never heard of a dry dump system reducing engine longevity. Gm has been using it in certain corvette models since 06 I believe.
Yeah that’s news to me. For what I’m sure it cost that’s unacceptable to have a 100 hour life.
I have to agree with you on that. Dry sump has and always been seen as a superior lubrication system compared to wet sump because you can direct the oil where you want it and it’s set up for better scavenging during high G cornering
He may be pulling way too much vacuum from the top end. Peterson makes a valve to put in the valve cover to dial in crank case vacuum.
Maybe he's using some older system of dry sump that's my only guess
@@childofodin probably some nascar style dry sump system that’s designed to work on an embankment circle track
In 1984 the cops chased me from la crescenta in my 1966 mustang on the same street Wentworth and finally caught me over by pick a part in sun valley after I crashed. Every time I watch your show it reminds me of that day. I still have the car !!! Man that's a cool ride that gentleman has!!!
God bless his heart for running 15” rims 👍
I can’t stand oversized wheels
@@hoonaticbloggs5402 especially not on a classic car, just looks stupid.
@@minnesotatomcat Looks stupid in any car or version.. They all look like these stupid donk.
I hear you! My 65 Fastback tribute GT350 runs on 15” TTD’s. I’ve been driving it daily since 2006 with those on the whole time!
@@minnesotatomcatthat’s your opinion
So happy to see someone build a badass non-fastback Mustang. Rare opinion: I think the regular coupe looks better.
This guy had a blast building this beast and it shows. Definitely the most mechanical mustang ever.
I absolutely love that he didn't want to tear up a fast back (65 had the best half a$$ fast back ever imo). Turning an old 6-cyl into this is just awesome. Great job. Cool build!
Phenomenal looking 65 track/street Mustang hats off to Ron for building his car. 😁🖤🖤🖤
What a car ..!!!! Big RESPECT to Ron and another excellent video. For me personally I think this is just pure American nostalgia and should be celebrated just the way it was intended… his knowledge and enthusiasm shows in every nut and bolt of the vehicle. BRILLIANT BUILD… BRILLIANT VIDEO.. thanks !!
This car is amazing. Pretty sure ive seen It at willow springs before. Really dig this one. Love the full cage with two seats
I’ve really been enjoying your more “working man” passion built vehicles. I still love the million dollar builds, but the sweat equity builds are awesome! Thank you for doing it.
Totally agree. Thats why we show both sides of the custom world
when I look at the newer Mustangs I say to myself "..that's not a Mustang.."
but when I look early Mustangs from the first runners(first early models)that's when I say to myself "..NOW that's a Mustang.."
What do you mean by "newer" because my 07 gt500 sure as hell looks like a mustang.
Very intense car. Great video, brother.
This engineering marvel is amazing! Great build and video!
This thing is an absolute BEAST! Nothing will ever substitute old school muscle.
What a great fella as well.
Nice work (as always)
👍🇦🇺
this thing is BADASS!!! Ron is also the real deal. What a ride!
Shawn looks like a little boy sitting in that passenger seat with his Dad driving!!😂!
Nice to see and hear a purpose built car, that didn't cost an arm and a leg, that was done right. 👍👍
The fact that you had a guy who pretty much did the car himself and that he actually knows all the info about what he did is amazing can listen to him talk all day about his car knowing I own a 65 as well
What a cool build... It is a little strange what he picked to be stock vs modified but sounds great, looks great. Cool car.
A very lovely build
My hat is off to this man!
Man i love these builds, cause the owner/driver really knows the details and the whys. Its just the right amount of rowdy but still restrained !
Simple and efficient. Raw, mechanical beauty. Great job, it's art.
Truly meant to be driven. Screw the luxury! You need that visceral feeling!
I don't know which would have made me pucker more, the pure power and speed of that car or the cop getting behind you guys! Awesome Video and an even more incredible car.
I really like what he did with the car very well put together, I’ve got a1967 mustang fastback that I’ve had since high school 36 years it’s my first car and it’s a six cylinder car, I’ve installed the top loader 4 speed and installed a V8 rear axle and front hubs on it and still look’s factory, the color is white with black interior, it’s fun to drive, I’ve also got a 1970 bronco that I’ve had for 30 years it’s got the 302 with the top loader 4 speed
Nice car, better personality. The attention to detail and reasoning behind the build decisions are great. Nice video.
What a lairy sounding monster that mustang is
That thing is bad ass! Love everything about it!
What a visceral experience it must be inside that beast!
Big Bad Black Mustang! Nice
One smart Fella there
Super nice......love spur-cut gears....reminds of my years racing Husqvarna dirt bikes. Ron really thought stuff out. Wheels not mags but period correct.....still looks like a Mustang.
Min where required and maxed when needed. That trans sounds like an old RC car, that is awesome!
THat kind of power in a light car has to be nuts esp on a road course! That is one bad boy!
Those straight cut gears sound heavenly!
Now thats one cool build, love it!
Another 👍 great video Shawn. The sound, the mechanics of the whole car, fantastic . Period correct. Thanks again
24:44 THE SHOES 😂
Your feet go to crap when you get old youll see.
Eleanors badass sister
It’s an beast of a car love it thanks for sharing!!
I like this dude. He really knows his stuff
Lovely car, spectacular build
That sound is so sweet!
What an awsome video today, please make more like this. These type of cars are so kool, just like your friend with the 70 camaro race car love that video too. Love this channel.
Absolutely love the sound :)
I could go all day picking Ron’s brain and talking about his car.
Fabulous period correct clever build, best Mustang I’ve seen ! Thanks 👍
Beautiful work!
And it is nice to see another muscle car withh beefy wheel set-up, like that classy gray and black Cougar you had on here. They just look proper, unlike those big rim, low profile tyre set-ups.
Honestly Shawn you make these Episodes so interesting. Thanks bro keep it up!
Awesome buuilt! - and awesome work on a beautiful car !!!
This was the best clip you guys have released in a long time!!
If I were to buy a Mustang, it'd be a '65 coupe for sure! Too cool!
That rig is STOUT!!
What an Amazing Track Build!
Absolutely Rare, & Nasty! Gotta love it! Amaze'n. Took my driver's test in a Brand new 66 stang, turquoise white vinyl top, pony interior/deluxe, 289 auto. It was my Mother's. Beautiful car! She traded it in on a brand new 69 fastback. My 2nd car was a 68 1/2 GTA C-6 W/ A 302 hydraulic version of the Boss 302 solid lifter that came out in 69'. Have a svt cobra now, & a 67' modified coupe w/ 540 rwhp. Thanks, J
Porsche 911s have had dry-sump lubrication systems since 1964. That year the 911's oil capacity was 13 quarts in a 2.0 liter engine. Oil is pumped from crankcase to the oil tank (9 qt capacity) in the right rear quarter panel, then pumped to an external cooler then back to the crankcase. Oil level is checked with the motor at idle.
That is a dope ride. Looking stunning actually. Rather drive this stang anyday than this overdone looking @15:04
What a sweet ‘Stang with neat build history. Respect for the dedication and patience and effort to get this to where it is today! (Guys, I’m still waiting for 4K videos - please!)
Ha!!!! I love this. Thank you for showing this car. Totally sick.
That is one insane 65 Mustang to say the least...28 minutes and I'm still blown away on this build!🤯
sweet ride with crazy engineering
Nice! I like the way the coupes look.
Man what a cool car! Brutal.
I have a black 65 coupe! Yours is an inspiration! I LOVE this channel!
the "Monte Carlo bar" and "export brace" are in fact, the same thing. all Mustangs and Falcons came with the left and right "hockey stick" stamped piece coming off the top of the shock towers to the firewall. But when Falcons went racing in Monte Carlo prior to the Mustang's invention, they found they needed even more support. They looked at the tube running in front of the shock towers and air cleaner that was installed on cars exported across the sea, and realized that would do the trick.
One day someone will do a movie about the Falcon's attempt at Monte Carlo. Like Ford v Ferrari, it's a case of the racers versus the "suits", the Falcon crew from England got real close and then were told to shelve everything as the Mustang was going to be the new "fair haired child" at Ford. It was always about selling a product.
Very nice I love old school.. very good job young man
Very clean build. I love it. Greetings
The sound is incredible
Amazing build 👏🏾
Awesome build!
Love this car, quite a build.
Great car and great video! One correction guys the C6 Z06’s (LS7) are dry sump cars.
Holy Snapping Duck Shit 👀 What an Amazing Incredible car 🤘🔥🤘 Ron is a true master of his craft, Simply Stunning 🤘🔥🤘💖
Man what a wild ride !
That’s for sure
The sound is glorious
That’s one bad ass mustang for sure!
Gotta be 1 of my faves that's been on the channel.. propwr my style n raw!
Nice stang Shawn!
Ron! Congrats on being on here!
I see NASCAR anything in the title and I’m clicking
Dont tell Sean "ya don't need a lot of brakes" lol. That's the last thing he wants to hear! He wants more brakes less cowbell. On the bright side. At least you're further away from this dashboard.
and a proper harness instead of just a lap belt. 😂
This is perfection
Lovely Stang!👏👏👊🖤
Awesome race car 👍🏽 and a simple old school one, no computer's cool 😎
Wow,well done !!
The new balance sneakers are perfect
This car is awesome! Never once saw your "Oh Shit" face but the whole time you had the "Holy F this is awesome face!" I know you felt good with all the safety equipment! Love your videos dude! Always look forward to every single one!
i put koni shocks in my 67 stang fastback 390 gt ..wow what a better set up and it was set hard ---50-50 on the street and that could handle very very well it cost $ 125 for set of 4 frt and back ..best thing i did for it
Dream car always wanted to do something like this
I absolutely love this car, the execution, that he kept everything period-correct, and it's not a trailer queen, just about perfect. that being said, am I to understand that you guys are driving a car that has exhaust fumes coming into the cabin? If I understood that right, and you've also driven in a car that has seriously subpar brakes, I would suggest for your own safety you rethink what cars you get it.
Wicked absolutely wicked.
Such a killer build
This is my favorite guest brother the car is awesome and he is funny as hell and smart as a fox. Awesome video and my favorite of the mustang videos
Wow what an awesome looking car. This is pretty much my dream car. This is what i want to build one day. My dream is to buy a 67 pony coupe from california and drive it along route 66 to the east coast and then ship it back to England where I can build a street rod.
Sounds like a fun time you’re planning. Route 66 is fun!
@@AutotopiaLA I have been dreaming about doing it since I first learnt to drive 18 years ago.
YEP IT'S VERY RAW LOUD 😮 AWESOME 💯 PERCENT FASTER THAN FAST 🔥 JUST GREAT EXPERIENCE FANTASTIC JOB GREAT THANKS 👍
Nice stang 👍👍
Love it awesome and such a great guy
True meaning of Raw
