Ok you lot, who owns this beast?  We found it on the jalopnik site in the states.  Apparently this car resides here.....

"They do things differently down under. That's why this 1965 Ford Mustang from Australia is powered by a heavily modified four liter turbocharged straight six engine from a Ford Falcon. Watch this odd pony run a 9.96 ¼ mile."

Very well presented car, I've seen him at Knox a couple of times.

Makes me think of all the 6 cyl verts I passed on.

It isn't head's up racing at street meets, you're really only racing against the clock- timer starts from when you cross the start line.
