This is my 2007 mustang GT aka venom that I am Rebuilding with my Dad. I’m making a hood scoop, Fender scoops, Window scoops, lower side scoops and a Duck tail spoiler Form scratch. All will be made form medal and Welded and molded on the car to their are one piece not Tape ones. The hood will be made from
Fiberglass. I am building one mustang form 2 half’s from form a 2005 mustang gt and the rear form a 2006 mustang v6. Using all the gt stuff. When I’m done It will be a custom build car and magically trued in to a 2007 mustang gt (don’t ask why just the way it is). I am buying the cervinis front bumper and side exhaust. And also designing the spoiler to look like there’s. Any way ill stop talking because you probably doing don’t understand a thing I typing because I suck at spelling and typing so ill get the pictures.
































here the Hood and fender being made. not complet.

looks like the silver front end was pushed way up. did you pull it before you cut it and welded into the black car?

and how does taking an 05 and an 06 make an 07? should be an 05 since you are using the front of the 05, VIN and all.

Yes I did pull it but very little it wasn’t bad the fenders and bumper just making it look bad.

The reason it is a 2007 is because it is no longer a ford mustang it is called an ubuild mustang ubuild meaning custom. it is being Reregister as a 2007 because that’s the year its being reregistered in. so on the paper work it’s going to say 2007 ubuild mustang Gt.

Does that make any sense?? I still don’t get it 100% ether. I though it was going to be a 05 too but icbc (Insurance Corporation of British Columbia) say it’s a 07.

That looks like a freakin' sweet project! Keep us updated on the progress. Sucks for those people who trashed their Mustangs though

I don’t know what happened to the guy in the silver car besides he rolled it a bunch of times. Speed and his tires were 99% bold so that’s what I think happened. The black on the guy/girl hit a poll 3am new years. Oh and I found weed in the car too.

And I will keep ya posted. I’ll have a tiny update on the 2nd just posting pic of the parts that I ordered

Edit and yes Its like a Kit car

Looks like a lot of work.
Dollar wise, wouldn't it have been cheaper to buy a good used Mustang?

That's the answer. If you had to hire it done, I would imagine the price would be great.

If you can build one mustang out of two mustang halves and make it work decently well I'd definitely let you work on my car lol.
