Whatever that is, it's not a 69 Mustang.

no, it's not. it's either a 71-73 stang, maverick, or possibly a torino. the point was that suspension is the same as our cars so the same type of suspension mods could be done, though i'd leave the shock towers and find another way to mount the coilovers.

actually after a closer look it's either a 71-73 stang or torino, i just noticed the integral power steering box which was only used on the big body stangs and torinos and not used on the mavericks. but the point is the same, the suspension design is the same and this car is still using the factory upper and lower control arms and strut rods as well, though the upper arms have been modified for the coilover shock to pass through.
