Mustang? GT? What Exactly are We Talking About Here?
The interior features a dashboard from a '90s Mustang, under the hood sits a Ford GT engine, while the body certainly appears to be a ‘70s Fastback Mustang with a few GT badges planted about.

Just wait until you get a load of this Ford. It’s one powerful looking machine.
Oh, and you’ll notice we’ve refrained from calling it a Mustang, because we’re still trying to sort out if it actually qualifies as a member of the Ford pony car family, or perhaps it’s something much more sinister in disguise.
The car, which is currently making the rounds on the 2015 Hot Rod Power Tour, seems to have picked up elements from a few Ford vehicles, as highlighted in a recent CarBuzz report.

Our guess is that there are probably a few more features from the Ford pony car scattered throughout the car. But we still think that calling this thing a Mustang is very misleading for a number of reasons.

So if the engine is in the back seat, what's under the hood?

It's hard to tell from the picture, if that is the original body. They're becoming so rare that I hate to see them modified from original. Just my thoughts though.

well the only non mustang part as far as I can see is the engine, all the rest is various bits from other stangs so to me its at least 55% or more Mustang so still qualifies as a pony…I say let it in the stable, its still got the mustang body...
