67 Shelby Eleanor Super Snake SVT Restomod Follow Along


Ok, i had to start a new thread since i could not go back and edit the photo links in the previous one. Sorry about that!



Hello all!
I am starting this thread so that you all can see how i am attempting to build an Eleanor Clone with a 2003 4.6L SVT Cobra supercharged engine. This is my first mustang to ever fully restore/build, but i have been restoring cars for the last 18 years. Mustang1 suggested i join this forum so that i could share the project and receive help from the knowledgeable members. I look forward to learning from everyone hear and hopefully i can give back in the near future.

History: This car was acquired from the Unique Performance auction in spring of 2008. The car was sent to a painter in NC in August of 08, but unfortunately, that painter went out of business two weeks later and took the 4,000 deposit with him. Last year i attended Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, AZ and found a great deal on a NOS 4.6L SVT engine for 6,000. After pricing some other options, i decided that the engine was a must have and purchased it. The car will receive RRS suspension in the front, TCP-g bar system in the rear with a 9" rear with 3.55 gears, transmission to be determined, Ron Francis Wiring, TCP power rack and pinion steering, and the rest is to be determined. The car is being put into primer today 12/3/09, and should be painted by the end of next week.
So, here is the project thus far from start(as obtained from Unique Performance) to current status.

Dash signed by Shelby



Fuel Cell came in. If you need a reasonably priced fuel cell get this unit from mustangs to fear. It was 950 with the in tank fuel pump.





Restored the interior vent boxes(took 12 hours to recondition and repair them) and installed the new vent sail panels.


PSE wheels are in for the front. Just waiting on the tires now to see how they will fit. 245-45-17s up front

Sun bathing on April 18th 2010. I had to give her a nice bath thanks to the excessive amounts of pollen that made its way into the garage. Good news, the front windshield and rear window do not leak. The correct rear axle housing will be here this upcoming week and things can really start to get rolling-no pun intended.
