Not every muscle car gets to live a second life as a screen icon. This fuel-injected Ford Mustang fastback does exactly that, and then some. Created by Eleanor Garage of Palm Springs, this tribute edition merges cinematic nostalgia with full-throttle performance in a build that refuses to whisper.
Tribute Built With Eleanor Heart and Style
If you’ve seen Gone in 60 Seconds, you already know this silhouette. Eleanor Garage took that signature look and crafted a tribute that honors the spirit of the 2000 film. From the bulged hood and center fog lights to the rear spoiler and side-exit exhausts, it’s instantly recognizable. The Pepper Grey paint with black stripes brings muscle and menace in equal measure.
Movie Star Looks, Track-Ready Suspension
This Mustang isn’t just a looker, it’s engineered to perform. It uses a reproduction fastback shell paired with an Eleanor-style body kit. QA1 adjustable coilovers and a Mustangs to Fear suspension turn corners into playgrounds. Wilwood disc brakes bite hard with drilled and slotted rotors on every corner.
Fuel-Injected Ford Mustang Fastback Power and Performance
Let’s talk about the heart of this beast. Power comes from a custom-built, fuel-injected 428 V8 assembled by Britco Racing Engines. With a Holley Sniper II injection system, Edelbrock intake, roller camshaft, and Shelby-branded parts, this engine doesn’t just idle, it snarls. A Tremec five-speed manual keeps you fully connected, while a Motive Gear limited-slip differential pushes power to the rear.
Hardware That Supports Real Horsepower
Twin electric fans cool the aluminum radiator. Ceramic-coated headers channel sound through SpinTech mufflers. If you hit the line lock button, prepare for instant burnout gratification. The drivetrain isn’t just powerful, it’s complete and balanced.
Bold Wheels, Smart Cabin
Wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sports, American Racing wheels measure 17” up front and 18” out back. They grip, turn, and elevate the stance. Inside, black leather with microsuede accents adds drama while the stainless-steel trim keeps things grounded. Carroll Shelby’s signature graces the dash, and the roll bar adds function beneath the flash.
Details That Make It Personal
Classic Instruments gauges sit behind a wood-rimmed steering wheel. The “Go Baby Go” shifter button and faux nitrous switch echo the film while modern touches like power windows and digital media controls keep things contemporary.
Summary
This fuel-injected Ford Mustang fastback blends Hollywood flair with real-world muscle. Built to honor Eleanor’s legacy, it gives enthusiasts a rare chance to drive a tribute that respects both the screen and the street.
