A Trans-Am Inspired 1966 Ford ProTouring Mustang 

One of my favorite builds, not over kill . This is something I would build for my self

I think the rabbit in the grill is badass, especially once understanding the history

Made my own Terlingua logos for 66 build I have been doing. Final form is a mix of the Street Or Track logo and the Terlingua bunny painted red set against a carbon fiber background.

I love how unapologetic you are about what you've done to your car. This is a cool tribute to a great legend. Awesome to see.

Man this car is an inspiration. I bought an nearly identical basket case car at a garage sale a couple years ago, and its almost road worthy. Glad to see there are more who are building these cars like I am for function over form. I always appreciate the show cars, but its hard to justify driving them like you really want to.

At 3:18 he says “cause I’m gonna beat the hell out of the car”. 😂. Well said- and as you should!!!! That’s a bad ass car Erik!!! Awesome video and thanks for sharing!!!

Mike Maier is awesome- glad you gave him props. Cool Mustang.👍🏻

Some guy in a Buick Lasaber: hahaha what's he about to do!?? This guy strapped in: but you never know...

Love this car and Erik is a super nice fella. He talked me into getting my car out to this years Goodguys Autocross, now i wanna give CAM-T a go

I love the look of this '66, I'd like to have something similar for my '65.

What I like most about your car all the mechanical has been redone paint comes whenever paint doesn’t make the car drive fast and it doesn’t make it work well mechanics always comes first and you nailed it brother

Nice work Terry, that came out great, loved the downshift intro and the exhaust sounds are way better.

ive literally have seen hundreds of builds of classic mustangs on you tube and in person, this one build stood out the most of all of them, bar none, gave you a thumbs up on you tube, Im so pleased to see Ive done almost exactly the same as you've done, glad to see you rave about the sniper fuel injection system, I did the same, also I did the electric assist power steering and in fact your the very first one to comment on how it works since no one has until now, glad to hear your happy with it cuz I did the same system, I did 4 link rear end with pan hard bar, Love MIke Maier products and who he is I m building a 65 fastback and a 71 mach one, we have such similar stories it really struck a nerve for me in a good way. bravo to you, coolest freaking build Ive ever seen on a stang, unfortunately mine is too nice to beat on like yours so Im jealous in that regard. I also went with 8" rear end, glad your happy with yours. again its like we built the same car in a parallel universe.

I love this build. Beautiful!

Very nice I finally found a car worthy of replicating..

Love what you've done to the car it looks great wouldn't worry about the shot a little rust never hurt anyone.

It's beautiful, what a great build. The only thing I dislike about it are the wheels. Torque Thrusts in gray would be about perfect on this build. Other than that it's a great car.

this is a dream of mine. 2 stangs!! one to pass down. the other to beat the hell out of.

Fantastic job on this car. I'd be mighty proud to own and drive something like that. Thanks for sharing.

Love it. I wanna build up my 66 red coupe to play with

That car is awesome

Build it how you want it. I live in Phoenix and own a 71 Mustang Mach1 and a 65 fastback that I haven't really had a chance to dive into much yet. Nice Car, cool info.

I’d love to see that 71 for inspiration for my 72

Nice car - You have improved the original considerably. No problem with the Rabbit in the grill. The pony and surround got removed on a lot of Mustangs.

I'm in love! Great car!

Nice ride. I have a 65 with a stock hood and never thought a Vic Jr would fit under there. Thanks for that. I might ditch my RPM Air Gap.

Sir that’s one awesome car

Love the build and really appreciate the granular look at it. I’ve got a 66 fastback ready to come off the rotisserie (as soon as I finish up some Maier racing rear flares) I’m wanting to do a 350 R code tribute thing with it and you’ve nailed the vibe I think I’m looking for. And I’m paying attention about that Maier panhard bar, that’s definitely going on. I’d love to have one of his rear ends but not in my budget. I’ve got a 68 firebird that I’ve been running at the track in Portland and I feel you on the power steering. I’ve been fighting those leaks for a month, literally. I just finished putting 12” 6 piston wilwoods in the front (cause that’s the biggest I can put without throwing $2k at wheels) tubular coil overs and adjustable shocks all around,apparently I’m skilled enough for that, but not skilled enough to stop a damn power steering leak. Lost two track laps in Portland and ended the Hot August Nights cruise a couple weeks ago bleeding… the only issue I’ve had in 4500 miles on this build and several hundred miles of track time…..electric steering had never occurred to me. How expensive was that peice? Thanks for posting

I like the build it the way you want it. Great job.

10.5+ caster. Wow!

on mine I added a front spoiler and had a huge increase in cooling, air gets pulled down and really helped high speed stability as well, road tests back in the day would measure front end lift on tests and I can tell you this car at 100 is probably close to 300 lbs lift or more, to prove it I took out the rear pins on my Shelby hood and at 40 mph the rear of the hood would start to lift off the fender , with the spoiler on the car it stayed down tight, also going thru NC on a near 100 degree day the temp stayed perfect , not a normal thing for a stang, probably why every modern car has some kind of spoiler.

God drives a classic mustang. Fact.

Car looks awesome

Sounds and looks great! It's hard to drive a nicely painted car hard. I have mine vinyl wrapped and can swap out a section easily when it gets all chipped up. I'd keep this one in patina as long as possible. It looks good and vintage.

stunning taste!!

It was Jerry Titus that drove the #17 Mustang.

No money left for shoes

Great Job man, just fantastic and sounds absolutely Glorious!🤘🏼

That car is bada$$. This is Andy from the old team AZ days. Ran across your video while restoring my 66 GT. Looking for ideas, won't be as radical as yours, but cool for me. Build them the way it fits your personality. I like the anvil reference. Lol

Nice 71

F-ing sweet ride, but I gotta question the shoe/sandal choice.

@15:35 on, you need to tighten your lower control arm camber bolt ASAP 😮

Great video!

Great build

Terlingua Ranch in Texas use the rabbit and sun as an emblem

Great car, just need to de-shiney those wheels. ;o)

looks like holes in mufflers ??? what is that ? worked muffler shop 13 yrs... keep down rapppp,,, ? sneek in bits.. LOL..

Jerry Titus drove a 67 with #17 on it.

That exhaust is amazing, did I miss where he says where it’s from?

you're telling me your super badass with those on your feet....k

You have pretty much the most epic number you could have. Look into jerry titus and his terlingua mustang.

How did u do the electric steering?? A great look n car!!! Like To copy it

I’m doing one very similar to yours. to me the main thing is the mechanics

The Baer bump steer kit's washers are installed incorrectly.

Great video and lots of good info. Thanks for sharing. I do see you’re running the tcp shock tower brace kit with the vintage ac compressor. Have you had any issues with interference? I have the same compressor placement and am in the market for a Monte Carlo bar/ export brace on a 66 convertible. Thanks!

What is that whistling sound at ~16:30-16:45? I have the TB-EFI on my 351W and get that same annoying whine/whistle/squeal under load.

The rabbit does look a little odd lol.

Just needs some windshield wipers...

What cam is in this thing? What duration and lift? What lobe sep? Thanks.

Where can I get that icon from

Eme? Love the Turlina rabbit where can I find this eme company would love a custom emblem.

Nice sandals 👡 lmao

Hey could you tell me where you got your engine bay bracing kit at? I have a 1968 Mustang and would like to buy a kit like that.

Just picked up a rust free 65 to copy your car. Hope you take that as a compliment .

WHEEL INFO 9:02 Budnik gtx

Terry these DSE torque boxes. Can I install them with the car all together. Or do I have to removed Seata carpets etc. ???

Why make a car that tricks people into thinking it is something it is not? Honest question.

Eric, do you have Chris Hall's contact information? Is he a Mustang fabricator/restorer? Looking for an Arizona contact to for restoration/fabrication. Thanks, Kenny

what's the rim size and tire package you went with ?

What mufflers are on the car? It sounds great! Love the patina throw back race car vibe!

Makes sense to me. Drive that mofo!

😀

NIce build but were you making this video for the ladies?

I always laugh at douchebag mustang owners, then someone like you reaffirm my belief on how cool the car is. Great job,

No one wants to see that... Gagnon.. and I'm not talking about the f* car!

i would have put some real seats in it

Hows that T-5 handling the abuse?

What do you mean coupes are going up in price. USA. I thought everyone wants a fast back. Cheers

Stencilwork? Artwork? Lmao. I like the car though, good job

Kill the rabbit, I don't like.
