What is the Workhorse? When car enthusiasts who are also racers and engineers begin a restomod project, it is never complete. Periodic upgrades, adjustments and modifications come with the territory. That’s the vision behind Wilwood’s Workhorse 1966 Mustang Project; a machine that constantly evolves and improves. A piece of art you can drive fast, merging historical style with state-of-the-art technology. It’s not only built to race, but built to test our new ideas and products as well. Real world testing ensures the best performing parts are developed on the Workhorse Mustang, before being released for use on your car. 4700 Calle Bolero • Camarillo, CA 93012 wilwood.com Sales: (805) 388-1188 E-mail Tech Assistance: [email protected] fl365 • REV DATE: 01/20/2021 INTRODUCING THE WILWOOD WORKHORSE 1966 MUSTANG About the Workhorse Mustang?
