Few Mustangs capture the imagination quite like the Eleanor. Its foundations were laid in 1967, the year Ford made the Mustang larger, wider and more muscular, firmly establishing the Fastback as the most desirable body style. More than three decades later, that very 1967 Fastback was given a second life as a movie star. Ever since, the Eleanor name has become one of the ultimate icons of the American muscle car world. This car is an official Eleanor specification, recognised by Eleanor Licensing LLC, and was professionally built as a restomod in 2020. A photographic record of the build is available. Under the bonnet is not a traditional period engine, but a modern 5.0-litre Coyote V8 from 2015 producing 450 HP, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. High-quality Wilwood brakes provide the stopping power required for this level of performance, while a line-lock and switchable straight-pipe exhaust system allow you to unleash the theatrical character of this Mustang whenever you wish. The result is an Eleanor that combines the appearance of a true classic with the driving characteristics and reliability of modern engineering.
Candyapple Red is the perfect choice for this body. The deep red finish beautifully accentuates the broad rear haunches and long Fastback profile, while the full-length grey stripes add an extra sense of direction and purpose. The aggressive front end features two round auxiliary lights integrated into the grille, while the custom bonnet with bonnet pins and the side pipes complete the unmistakable appearance. Alloy wheels reveal the red brake calipers clearly behind them. Inside, you will find a custom black leather interior featuring fine red stitching, Cobra emblems in the headrests and electrically adjustable seats. The wooden sports steering wheel, additional gauges on the centre console, aluminium pedals and door sill plates provide exactly the right balance between classic atmosphere and modern functionality.
