Fun read. Saw this posted last night. This is Matt Farrah's(from the smoking tire and Gotham dream cars) personal car. He has a few videos of it on his YouTube channel

I was following his updates through YouTube. It looks nice but it's kind of disappointing to see the issues he keeps running into. I like Matt and his videos but I think his expectations may have been a little off. I definitely don't see the issue with using a foxbody as a track car, since that's my plan eventually, and I look forward to him getting it done properly and running it. I just don't get the expectation of not spending that much on it when he is throwing the house full of parts at it and enlisting shop after shop to do it. The labor alone is probably killing his budget. Anyway, it's a good article and I look forward to his future videos on it. Btw, he has a video where he drives around a friend's foxbody that's built for American Iron. It's pretty cool but obviously a track only car.

I've followed him on youtube, even through out a few tidbits of advice, but I'm sure it was just lost in the noise with the amount of attention his youtube and IG page get. He himself admits he can't/doesn't want to wrench on the car, so I can understand how frustrating it must be when something breaks and he has to drag it somewhere and pay someone to fix it. The main issue I see though is the shop he's using doesn't specialize in Mustangs.
