The Big Reveal
Justin Swanstrom, known for his fierce competitiveness on the track, is taking on a new project with the construction of a 1967 Mustang. This isn't the first time we've heard whispers about this build. Earlier this year, Justin hinted at building a 1969 Camaro, known as "Bad Blood," and another NPK (No Prep Kings) car. The latter is confirmed to be the 1967 Mustang we're talking about today.
Collaboration with Todd Fones and Hormone Logic
Both Justin and Todd Fones from Hormone Logic have confirmed their collaboration on this Mustang project. Todd Fones' company, known for its top-tier builds, is no stranger to the Street Outlaws scene. They have previously worked on cars like the "Side Piece" Lexus, now rebranded as "Sir Vincent," which is currently set up for no prep racing.

Current Fleet and the New Addition
Justin already boasts an impressive fleet of race cars. "Bad Blood," "Prenup," and "Sir Vincent" are all no prep capable, with "Prenup" having the flexibility to switch to big tires when needed. The burning question is whether this new Mustang will be another no prep car or if Justin has different plans.
Pro Mod or No Prep?
Given Justin's interest in Pro Mod racing, as seen in his participation in the World Series of Pro Mod this year, there's speculation that the 1967 Mustang might be built for Pro Mod events. Pro Mod racing is highly competitive and offers a different kind of thrill compared to no prep races. The idea of Justin diving deeper into this realm isn't far-fetched.
However, there's also the possibility of the Mustang being built for Radial vs. The World (RVW) events or other outlaw races. The RVW class has been gaining traction again, sparking renewed interest among racers.

What's Next?
Regardless of its intended class, one thing is for sure: this Mustang will be fast and fierce. The build is being handled by Wizard Race Cars, the same team that built Jerry Bird's Mustang, ensuring top-notch craftsmanship and performance.
As the project progresses, we can expect more updates and sneak peeks into the build process. Will it be a Pro Mod beast or another no prep powerhouse? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain—Justin Swanstrom's new Mustang will be a force to reckon with on the track.
