Modern car culture keeps producing creations that defy easy classification. Over the years, we’ve seen everything from heavily customized convertibles to radically transformed daily drivers. Body swaps, in particular, form their own category, some are incredibly refined, while others are downright outrageous. Falling squarely into the latter is this wild fusion of a 1966 Ford Mustang with a 2008 Porsche 911, currently listed for $19,500.
At first glance, it might seem like the fever dream of a hot rod enthusiast: Porsche handling, luxurious interiors, and an eye-catching exterior all in one package. But a closer look reveals proportion issues that leave many scratching their heads.
The 911 is about three inches wider than the Mustang and rides on a wheelbase nearly 15 inches shorter, creating an awkward visual balance. To make the two bodies fit, the builder had to push the front wheel arches dramatically back, resulting in a comically long front overhang. The swollen fenders at each corner accommodate the much wider Porsche frame and track. Even the fuel filler had to be relocated to the front fender, an unusual but necessary tweak to match the 911’s layout.
Not everything about this project feels offbeat, though. The interior is essentially all Porsche, which is a huge win in terms of quality and comfort. The chassis has just over 53,000 miles on it, while the stock engine still delivers around 380 HP through a six-speed manual gearbox, ensuring serious performance.
The seller admits the body and cabin need finishing work, but the heavy lifting is already done. Whether it’s a good deal is debatable, but one thing is guaranteed: this Mustang-911 mash-up will turn heads faster than it can take corners.
If you’ve ever dreamed of a Mustang that looks like it passed through a funhouse mirror, this could be your chance. Decide for yourself whether it’s genius, madness, or a mix of both.
