1990 Ford Mustang

Project Bruder redefines what a Fox Body can be. Built from the ground up to blend raw, old-school aggression with modern control, this 1990 Mustang takes Ford’s lightweight legend and injects it with true engineered precision.

It’s not a survivor, it’s a statement.

American Muscle Perfected

At its heart is a 331 cubic inch supercharged small block fed by a Holley multi-port fuel injection system, tuned for immediate throttle and relentless torque. On the dyno, this setup produces a staggering 1,000 horsepower—a four-digit figure that turns the classic Fox into a street-legal missile. Mated to a Tremec T56 Magnum 6-speed transmission and 32-spline posi rear, it delivers power with authority—every gear a mechanical handshake between intent and asphalt.

Underneath, a tubular K-member with integrated rack-and-pinion steering and a coilover strut front-end conversion modernize the front geometry, while an SN95 rear axle assembly anchors the back with wider track and better grip. The result is balance—classic Fox lines wrapped around a chassis that finally drives like it looks.

Inside, the analog past meets digital present with a Holley digital dash—a sleek centerpiece that translates the car’s raw mechanical heartbeat into pure data. Every system is engineered for feedback, every movement for feel.

Project Bruder is a salute to the Fox Body’s underdog spirit—rebuilt not as nostalgia, but as evolution.
