580 hp would be nice,my homebuilt /swap meet parts engine made 475hp/440 torque..... no way could I afford 35 thou. for a race engine, had a lot less than that in the whole car race ready!!!!!!!!!!
There is one 65 Mustang out there Vintage racing with a chrome moly cage that actually has been weighed at a tad UNDER 2500 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!

I remember your car, you couldn't build it for the price you sold it for. I was considering it.
