Description Description: Categories: Item Reserve: No Reserve Year: 1968 Make: FORD Model: Style: ELEANOR TRIBUTE EDITION Vin: 8R01C147959 Exterior Color: GRAY Interior Color: BLACK Cylinders: 8 Engine Size: 428 Transmission: 4-SPEED MANUAL Short Description: Official Licensed and Certified Eleanor fastback hand-built from the ground up with only test miles. Powered by a fresh fuel-injected Downdraft 428ci engine paired with a 4-speed Toploader manual transmission with a Hurst shifter. Long Description: This rotisserie-restored 1968 Ford Mustang Resto-Mod was granted an official license and Certificate of Authenticity issued by Eleanor Licensing LLC for Eleanor's character, looks and image as it appeared in the 2000 film "Gone in 60 Seconds." It comes with the genuine Eleanor Certification paperwork, as well as the Eleanor body VIN plate and emblems issued by Gone in 60 Seconds LLC. This fastback conversion was fully reconditioned and almost every nut and bolt on this car is new. This Mustang has shakedown miles only. It has all the movie-correct Eleanor body modifications and accessories, including the side-exit dual exhaust and the wired Go-Baby-Go NOS ARMED dash switch (non-operational) and Eleanor nitrous bottle and shifter knob. Under the distinctive domed Eleanor hood sits a freshly built Ford FE 428ci big-block engine with aluminum heads and fuel-injected with eight downdraft stacks. This big block is coupled to a factory-issue 4-speed Toploader manual transmission with a Hurst shifter. It exhales through ceramic headers and a 2.5-inch throaty exhaust, which exits through the side rockers. The exhaust system is equipped with electric exhaust dumps controlled from the driver's seat so you can instantly adjust the exhaust volume from a full muffler to deafening open headers. It was designed to be a perfect blend between the iconic Eleanor styling, with updated and modern driveline and suspension for improved reliability and performance. All the 1967 factory suspensions were replaced and have upgraded rear 4-link rear suspension with adjustable coilovers, a stout Ford 9-inch rear end and front adjustable coilover shocks with power steering. It is equipped with Wilwood 4-wheel power disc brakes with drilled and slotted rotors. In addition, it is cooled with a quality aluminum radiator and electric fan. It is professionally finished in Pepper Gray Metallic 2-stage PPG exterior paint along with rich Black Rally body stripes and multiple layers of clear coat over the top. The underside and the engine compartment areas were prepared as meticulously as the exterior and painted body color with many coats of clear to allow it to be wiped down with ease. Everything is Eleanor-correct, down to the proper sequential taillights, stainless-steel bullet-style sideview mirror and Eleanor-style flip-up gas-filler lid. It is equipped with vintage-styled modern air conditioning and has an electric trunk release. The all-new deluxe interior features custom seats and a custom center console, with stainless-steel billet trim on the dash and on the door panels. The rear area is equipped with a matching factory-style fold-down seat with the NOS bottle located behind it. It also has a custom-painted roll bar with certified seatbelt harnesses. The factory-style dash cluster is fitted with retro-styled brand-new modern Velocity gauges and a custom wood-styled vintage steering wheel. Sound is provided by a RetroSound stereo with Bluetooth connectivity. The interior accessories, extensive gauges and lighting - including the front driving lights and fog lights - operate and function correctly with the flip of a toggle switch. In addition, it has custom show-ready red LED lighting in the engine area, cabin and exterior ground effects that are powered by two 12-volt batteries. This Eleanor fastback rolls on custom Eleanor-style wheels with performance tires. It comes with a full start-to-finish build book with over 150 restoration photos, a 30x40-inch professionally assembled "Gone in 60 Seconds" framed presentation of the official movie poster along with authentic officially signed photos of the lead cast members Nicolas Cage and Angelina Jolie.
