Check out this heavily modified 1971 T-5 Mustang! It is owned by Russ Rainwater from Salem, Oregon. Russ explains, "I have completed many body modifications such as hood scoop, side intakes, ground effects, rear spoiler, and molded rear panel. I know this look may not be for everyone but I enjoy some things different than stock. Most recent upgrades were the 20-inch rims and dual exhaust exiting in front of the rear tires. Glass packs with a balance bar for a great classic muscle car sound. Future plans are B&M shifter, blacked out chrome, block sanding, then spray the gun metal gray with black stripes. Yes, painting the bumpers but I will leave the T-5 emblem. Did these cars have fender emblems on both sides or just the drivers? This is my birth year car and has been a blast to work on!"

Here is a front end shot. Russ has put Eleanor letters on the windshield. The original Eleanor was a 71 Mustang (made to look like a 73).

This is a nice shot of Russ's work. You can see the T-5 emblem on the front fender. This car was originally in Germany - the T-5 was the Mustang in Germany.

Russ updates us on his 1971 Mustang fastback. He painted it. Looks great!
