Certified Fast & Furious Tokyo Drift Movie Car Restomod 347ci V8 450hp 5spd A/C /// Being a documented stunt car for The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift is only a small part of this Mustang's appealing narrative. Its tale began back in 1967 when the car met its first proud owner through legendary dealer Tasca Ford. Over the next 37 years, the car would pass through the hands of many enthusiasts on a cross-country tour that eventually ended in... southern California. A total of six 1967 and 1968 Mustangs were built for Tokyo Drift, the third installment of Universal Studios' long-running Fast & Furious franchise. Contrary to popular belief, the only car fitted with a Skyline engine was the 'beauty queen' used for close-up shots. The actual stunt cars combined trick suspension components with good ole fashioned American cubes! That's where this coupe comes in. As one of the cars that was resto-modded to handle drifting duties, it always featured a thundering V8. And today, this Ford joins one other V8-powered stunt car and the Skyline-powered 'beauty queen' as the only three Tokyo Drift Mustangs known to still exist. But that's not where the car's story ends. After filming, the Mustang was sold, unrestored, to a So Cal enthusiast. And by 2011, still unrestored, the car had made its way to a classic car dealer in Florida. That's when the current owner entered the picture. He didn't plan on buying a project, but used, abused, and wrapping presentable paint around a spartan interior, this Ford still had an undeniable charm. So, he pulled the trigger and made plans to turn the car into a nice driver. Of course, we ALL know what happens from here. Before long, the coupe was treated to a 6-year, ground-up restoration. That restoration, completed in 2017, wasn't just a run-of-the-mill build. Rather, it was a professional job in which much of the work was conducted by the pros at R&A Motorsports. And today, this Ford rolls as an incredible, Roush-powered resto-mod!
