Victor De Leon

The 1967 Ford Mustang was passed down to Victor De Leon by his mom. He started working on it at the age of 16 and has since put a lot of aftermarket parts into his build. Out of all the modifications, De Leon says the new engine bay is his favorite. “I just re-did it over the winter [and] came up with a different look and more power,” he writes. Plans for the future include a new wire tuck and custom interior.
