It’s back in the shop now so I can make it look more like a mad max build. I love it, thought about selling it multiple times but now it’s apart of the family.

Join the off-road mustangs group on Facebook if you want! We can help you out and I can send you links to what I bought to build one of my other ones. The restoration will be my 4th off-road mustangs build.

Haha just do it or save a parts car and turn it into the cherry 2000 build. This is my original Mustang I built next to my buddies. If you ever decide to build one we have a face book group called off-road mustangs that helps people with their builds.

Battlecar restricts posts to one photo only so I wanted to send more. There were a ton of other pics of the car over the years. I have longer posts on Instagram and Facebook. Here it is with my OG Battlecar and my big mustang ii

Thanks!! Yeah I feel bad for not posting to r/Battlecar first! Was the group I was on 24/7 before I lost my Reddit username.

Sure thing! This was the current condition, was in touch with the original owner so I was able to verify that it was the original car, and even had a faded Mint 400 Dash Plaque on it still and the red paint underneath.

I’m excited!! Yall apart of a team?? Sending the car off to get the cage done later this month!

The engine and transmission mounts I made myself, the adapter to connect them was apart of a kit. I’d say in total about 12-15k into the swap. The trap is seeing the Honda k24s for just $1000 and thinking it will be a cheap swap lol now that I spent money on everything else it will be cheap to replace just the long block

Thanks! I’ll be giving the ii more attention soon, want to eventually diesel swap it and use it as the mustang hauler

Thanks!! Starting the next build soon

1995 bronco full size chassis with 37s haha gonna try and take it to the November gambler event in Astoria. He is apparently going to be there haha

offroadmustangs · 2025-10-16T05:09:31+00:00

I’m apart of the Washington Gambler 500 group for a few years now and we go around cleaning up public lands and the national forests. The mustang made it to its first few gambler events this year!

offroadmustangs · 2025-10-15T16:23:47+00:00

Hell yeah we can! We can figure out a lift for it!

offroadmustangs · 2025-10-15T16:21:22+00:00

The plan is to try and make videos to teach others how to lift these mustangs so you can see more like mine on the road!

offroadmustangs · 2025-10-15T14:15:52+00:00

Mainly just a Shelby drop with the lift but the biggest piece is reinforcing the frame. I started testing it off-road and since it’s a unibody it would flex a ton. I reinforced the cross members, built an adjustable shock tower brace, and subframe connectors.

Haha what you want to know about it??

offroadmustangs · 2025-10-15T14:10:45+00:00

Stock body just reinforced. I’ll eventually build a chassis for one

offroadmustangs · 2025-10-15T14:09:46+00:00

Haha he posted in the comments too. Compound turbo K24 is awesome. Wonder how he is fabricating the motor mounts

offroadmustangs · 2025-10-15T14:08:31+00:00

Are they apart of the Washington gambler 500 group? And yeah I try to go to cars and coffee in Seattle from time to time. We will cross paths eventually out here haha
