According to an early-August press release from PRNewswire, new 1965 to 1970 Ford Mustang fastbacks and convertibles will become available in 2025 as a limited-edition series in celebration of the 60th Anniversary of Ford's iconic pony car.

The restomod Mustangs will be built by Brand New Muscle Car in Tulsa, Oklahoma using new all-metal Ford-licensed body shells. The first new classic Mustang, number BNMC-01, will be built on the MotorTrend TV show Brand New Muscle Car in 2024, and then displayed at SEMA the following fall before being sold at Barrett Jackson Scottsdale in January 2025.

Brand New Muscle Car will only be building 60 examples. Customers have the choice of 1965 to 1970 Mustang model years in fastback or convertible. Drivetrain options range from the 427-cid. Windsor, a 428-cid. FE engine, a 5.0-liter Coyote, the monstrous 7.3-liter Godzilla engine, or a reVolt electric system known for providing power to Teslas. Supercharged or twin-turbo boosts are also available. The choice between a five or six-speed manual transmission or a paddle-shift automatic sends power to the rear wheels.

Cool, but I don't see where they would be much different than any well restored and modded vintage chassis. Some just want the vintage look with new underpinnings. That just feels weird to me.
Man, Lee, that old clunky Ford Falcon platform in a fancy coupe' body has got some legs!

Don't think so. looking at their website, they currently provide complete body shells for camaros mustangs, broncos, Tri-Five Chevy's, etc. Wonder if they will be doing a rebuilt title on an existing K member VIN or doing it as a limited Kit car vin.
