The amazing body work comes through “necessity of having to cover up the mechanical parts of the car, as well as finding venting sources to cool down multiple heat sources,” according to Bill. Timeless gave Vicious a mini-tub with 2” custom flares, added Dynacorn body panel shells and fitted the rear end with a diffuser that was inspired by Ferrari’s F-430. Slide over to the inside and it’s a red wonderland of more one-off work, which is kept extremely minimal to keep the driver focused on what’s most important: driving. From the custom floorpans to the Sparco seats, the dashboard with a customhoused Racepak digital cluster and rear seat delete, this is one passenger cabin we’d love to spend quality time in. As it stands, Vicious could be one of Timeless Kustoms’ best projects to date, and the proof lies in being the shop’s current flagship. “This car is the best of the best,” Bill says. “Perfect weight distribution, 1,000hp, fully independent suspension…it truly is a race car in a Mustang skin.” Best of the best—we couldn’t agree more.
