Brennon Hope’s twin-turbo G.T. 500 makes 1,000hp the old-school way—pushrod Windsor power.

Don’t get us wrong: We love Coyote 5.0s in both vintage and late-model Mustangs. But we admit it seems we’ve shown more than a fair share of Coyote-swapped 1965-1970 Mustangs of late. Brennon Hope’s 1968 G.T. 500 fixes that right quick with a 1,000hp hit of twin turbo Windsor-style output that we love as much as we thought you might.

Brennon has also owned plenty of Italian and German exotic machinery in his day, but we suspect this fastback bruiser can show those fancy, leather-glove, wine-and-cheese-type cars its sequential taillights with little problem. Those include two Ferraris (one an F355 and the other an F430), a Mercedes CL63 AMG, and a Porsche Panamera. And while those Euro exotics have their place in the overall auto-enthusiast orbit, Brennon confesses to also having a thing for Mustang stuff, specifically for those that exude a focused road-racer vibe.

“I’ve always had a strong appreciation for American muscle cars and racing,” Brennon says. “The late ’60s were my favorite and the bodylines of the Mustang and other Ford fastbacks (like Falcon, Fairlane, and Galaxie) have always caught my eye. When the Eleanor Mustang for the 2000 movie starring Nicolas Cage came out, I liked the modern bodywork they had done. I’ve always wanted to design and build my own car, so it seemed like the perfect platform to start with.”
