Velocity Modern Classics wrote a new chapter for Fox Mustangs this week in Las Vegas. On display in the Roadster Shop booth at the 2025 SEMA Show, the Pensacola-based builder revealed the first production restomod Mustang from the 1979-1993 generation. This re-engineered 1991 LX coupe signals a new era of turn-key Fox restomods.
“The Fox Body holds a special place in automotive culture,” Velocity CEO Stuart Wilson said. “We set out to reimagine it with the same spirit that made it iconic, while infusing the craftsmanship, comfort, and capability that define Velocity. We’re constantly looking for the next evolution of re-engineered classics, and this Fox Body embodies that.”
Built from the ground up on a Roadster Shop SPEC chassis, Velocity’s Fox Mustang is powered by Ford Performance’s Gen 4X 5.0-liter Coyote V8 paired with a 10R80 automatic transmission. A Whipple 3.0-liter inverted supercharger pushes output beyond 800 horsepower at the rear wheels.

Underneath, a carbon-fiber driveshaft, Ford 9-inch rear axle, and Baer six-piston brakes deliver strength and control, while 18-inch CCW SA50 three-piece wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires put the power to the pavement. It’s a complete reimagining of the Mustang’s foundation, designed to perform and feel like a contemporary high-end performance car.
Turn-Key Coupe
While unmistakably recognizable, the 1991 Mustang’s shape has been elevated with the kind of craftsmanship rarely applied to this era. The Jet Black BASF Glasurit finish gives the body a deep gloss, accentuated by a two-inch cowl hood on Ringbrothers billet hinges and Carter’s Customs side splitters. Under the hood, hand-built closeout panels and precisely aligned bodywork showcase Velocity’s attention to detail and commitment to a factory-plus aesthetic.
Inside, the transformation continues. Velocity-exclusive door panels and a redesigned center console integrate seamlessly with Recaro Expert M heated seats for a refined driving environment. A Sparc Industries steering wheel designed specifically for this project sits ahead of a custom dash filled with Dakota Digital and AutoMeter gauges. Modern amenities, including Vintage Air climate control, a Blaupunkt Frankfurt head unit, and a Focal audio system, balance heritage styling with contemporary comfort. An Alcantara headliner and premium materials throughout complete the upscale atmosphere.
While the coupe unveiled at SEMA remains a one-off showcase, Velocity confirmed plans to bring it into production as part of its Signature Series lineup in 2026. Its arrival signals a broader shift as these once-accessible performance cars are entering the same territory as the first-generation Mustangs that defined the restomod movement. Velocity’s new build shows that the Fox Mustang has entered its next era of turn-key builds.
