What do you get when you mate a 2003 Cobra with 390 horsepower to a 65 Mustang Fastback? Well you get what Bob and Wayne Julian call the SN65. The SN65 Mustang project is the brainchild of Bob and Wayne over at
SN65.com.
The project consisted of mating a 1965 Mustang Fastback body shell to that of a 2003 Cobra chassis/frame. Not only are they mating the chassis of the 2003 Cobra but also the engine, drivetrain, IRS and interior.
This one-of-a-kind build started back in May of 2004 with the deconstruction of both the 65 Fastback and the 2003 Cobra. Over the next 20 months through alot of sweat and tears along with several late nights they finally came through with a finished product that they took to the Detroit Autoramma in early March. At the show Bob and Wayne recieved the most prestigous award for "Outstanding Engineered" car. This award is surely one of many they will recieve as the car makes the car show rounds.
I followed this build off and on for several months and I can tell you this car is a work of art and there is nothing like this car on planet earth. If you have time to read through the whole journal please do, you will really understand what went into creating this one-of-a-kind car.
