SEMA Build Update: Fitting 1967 Mustang Panels onto 2019 GT

In part 2 of this build series from B is for Build, the team is in the midst of a jaw-dropping SEMA build project. Their mission? To transform a 2019 Mustang GT into a glorious homage to the legendary Carol Shelby's 1967 Mustang GT. With just 26 days left, the pressure is on as they dive into the nitty-gritty details of this epic undertaking.

The team starts by trimming away excess metal and reshaping the side frame rail to accommodate the new 1967 body. It's a meticulous process, but the guys are determined to get it just right. They also take a moment to thank their sponsor, Omni Heroes, a thrilling new game that has captivated their attention. But back to the build, the team is eager to get their hands on the reproduction 1967 Mustang Fastback body panels and start fitting them onto the car.

As the pieces come together, the transformation becomes more and more apparent. The side panels are carefully trimmed and aligned, ensuring a perfect fit. The team's attention to detail is truly commendable. They even go as far as modifying the cowl area of the 2019 Mustang to accommodate the narrower 1967 body, a testament to their dedication to authenticity.

With each panel in place, the Mustang begins to take on a striking resemblance to its iconic predecessor. The team is thrilled with the progress, but they know there's still much work to be done. Fine-tuning, welding, and ensuring every element is perfectly aligned are all part of the meticulous process that lies ahead.

This SEMA build is a labor of love, a tribute to the automotive genius of Carol Shelby. The team at B is for Build is determined to create a masterpiece that not only captures the essence of the original 1967 GT500 but also adds modern touches to make it truly unforgettable. With their unwavering passion and attention to detail, there's no doubt that this build will leave us all in awe. Stay tuned for the next thrilling installment of B is for Build!
