At Mustang & Fords, our focus is restomod—tasteful modifications that make a vintage Ford better than ever.
But as we progress further and further into the restomod world, we’re seeing a number of similar, yet different, themes—from mild modifieds to all-out modernized machines with 4.6 DOHC powerplants and six-speed transmissions. While recently kicking around the current restomod culture, editor Donald Farr and I concluded there are several categories emerging from the restomod trend: Mild Restomod, Shelby Restomod, Street Trans-Am, Road Race, Day 2 Restomod, Drag Restomod, Nu-Tech Restomod, and Max Restomod. Here’s a look at each so you can decide if one of them is right for your next Mustang project.
