I am Building a triburte1965 K fastback mustang which had a T5 IRS rear suspension.
Does anyone know where I can find the blueprints for the T5 IRS rear suspension.
Here a photo of custom parts I made for the 298 engine.
It will really help me out if I could get the blueprints for the original Ford T5 IRS rear suspension.

I thought Ford only made a couple of prototypes and never released a IRS in a 1965 Mustang(T5).
I do remember a prototype for a 4 wheel drive ’65 stang that used Volvo parts.

Get ahold of Duane Carling. Try to search his name in reference to the T5. He's one of the guys that worked with Shelby on the project. He has a website.

T5s came with IRS? I thought the only (vintage)Mustangs that had IRS were those Shelby experimental models(Green Hornet, etc)
