Professionally-Built Mustang Fastback 347ci V8 Tremec 5-spd Custom Interior A/C

The 1965 Mustang fastback helped define the look and attitude of the American pony car, combining compact proportions with V8 performance and a silhouette that still feels aggressive decades later. That design took on a second life in pop culture through the now-iconic “Eleanor” persona, turning the fastback into a symbol of cinematic speed and attitude. This example channels that influence through a high-quality restomod built within the same family that has owned the car since 2000. During its tenure, it underwent a comprehensive transformation into the Eleanor-inspired machine seen today, blending unmistakable styling cues with modern performance and drivability.

The body wears a CJ Pony Parts Eleanor-style kit that incorporates the signature front and rear fascias, giving the fastback a more aggressive, purposeful stance without losing the car's classic proportions. Finished in Pepper Gray with black painted stripes, the car presents a clean, sinister look that fits the Eleanor theme perfectly. Details like PIAA grille lights, bullet-style side mirrors, sequential LED taillights, and the unmistakable side-exit exhaust reinforce the connection to the film car, while American Racing Shelby Cobra wheels wrapped in Nitto NT555 performance tires provide a muscular, road-ready footprint.

Under the hood, a 347ci stroker V8 delivers the kind of punch the aggressive look demands. Fed by a single 4-barrel carburetor, the engine pairs with a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission and sends power to a stout Ford 9" rear end equipped with 3.55 gears and a limited-slip differential. Upgraded Mustang II front suspension works with power rack-and-pinion steering to sharpen response, while a triangulated 4-link rear suspension with adjustable QA1 coilovers at all four corners help put the engine's output to the pavement. An aluminum radiator with electric fans keeps temperatures in check, and Wilwood power four-wheel disc brakes provide confident stopping power to match the car's straight-line authority.

Inside, the cabin is fully reworked with a custom interior trimmed in high-quality vinyl and Alcantara. TMI bucket seats feature the two materials along with grommet inserts, setting the tone for a cohesive design that carries through the door panels and dash. Dual-contrast stitching, billet accessories, and a wood-rimmed Lecarra steering wheel add both texture and visual interest, while silver-face Classic Instruments gauges provide a clean, period-inspired readout. A custom center console houses cupholders and a billet-trimmed shifter, and modern air conditioning pairs with a RetroSound receiver offering Bluetooth and SiriusXM capability to make the car comfortable and usable in real-world driving.

Blending one of the most recognizable silhouettes in American performance with the cinematic attitude of Eleanor, this fastback delivers presence in every sense of the word. It carries the look enthusiasts know instantly, the sound and response of a built small-block, and the comfort and control of a thoughtfully executed restomod. For buyers drawn to the legend but unwilling to sacrifice drivability, it represents a well-done, high-quality interpretation of a modern muscle icon.
