What Is a Mustang Restomod?
A Mustang restomod combines the character of a classic Ford Mustang with modern performance, comfort, reliability, and technology.
Traditionally, that means starting with a vintage Mustang and updating the systems underneath it. Engines are replaced or upgraded. Suspension, brakes, steering, electronics, climate control, and interior components may all be modernized while preserving the appearance and personality of the original car.
The goal is simple: keep what made the classic Mustang unforgettable while making it better suited to modern driving.
67Rewind approaches that same idea from the opposite direction.
How a Traditional Mustang Restomod Works
The original chassis and body provide the foundation, while newer components are integrated to improve how the car performs and behaves.
Depending on the build, that can include:
Modern V8 engines and transmissions
Upgraded suspension and steering
Larger brakes
Modern air conditioning
Updated wiring and electronics
Digital instrumentation
Contemporary seating and interior materials
Improved lighting and safety systems
The best restomods can dramatically change the driving experience while retaining the character of the original Mustang.
But the underlying philosophy remains the same:
Start with the classic.
Modernize everything around it.
Why People Want a Mustang Restomod
The appeal isn't difficult to understand.
The 1967 Mustang Fastback has a shape, stance, and presence that modern cars rarely replicate.
But a vehicle designed in the 1960s was built around very different expectations.
Drivers today are accustomed to responsive brakes, precise steering, dependable climate control, modern infotainment, advanced vehicle electronics, readily available diagnostics, and a car that can comfortably handle everyday driving.
A Mustang restomod attempts to bridge those two eras.
67Rewind does too.
We just start from the other side.
A Different Approach to the Mustang Restomod
Instead of beginning with a 1967 Mustang and adding modern systems, 67Rewind begins with a modern Ford Mustang and rewinds the design.
The modern Mustang provides the foundation.
Its drivetrain, chassis, suspension, braking systems, electronics, climate control, instrumentation, infotainment, and other integrated systems were designed to operate together from the factory.
We preserve that modern foundation and transform the exterior around the proportions and character of the 1967 Mustang Fastback.
The result isn't a restored 1967 Mustang.
And it isn't a traditional restomod.
It is a modern Mustang reimagined through one of the most recognizable designs in American automotive history.
