KINGPIN — The 1969 Ford Mustang Reimagined by Ringbrothers

Ever wondered what kind of car the final boss in a John Wick movie would drive? The Wisconsin-based custom shop Ringbrothers asked themselves the same question while preparing for this year’s SEMA Show — and the result is something you might want to run from.

Meet KINGPIN. It’s a 1969 Mustang Mach 1 that took more than 5,500 hours of meticulous craftsmanship to complete. Under the hood lies a 5.0-liter Wegner Motorsports Coyote V8 topped with a Whipple supercharger, pushing out over 800 horsepower. All that fury is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed Bowler Transmissions Carbon Edition manual gearbox.

That sounds intimidating enough, but to make sure even John Wick gets the message that his days are numbered, the car’s fitted with custom exhaust headers and a Flowmaster Super 44 Series stainless-steel exhaust system.

Ringbrothers says they performed “extensive bodywork,” widening the car by two inches up front and three and a half in the rear, while stretching the wheelbase by about an inch and a half. The Mustang also features carbon-fiber components throughout — check out the hood, grille surround, front splitter, rear diffuser, trunk panels, and those sculpted rear fenders.

It rides on HRE Vintage Series 517 wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires, with massive Brembo brakes lurking behind them. What’s less obvious at first glance is the independent front and rear suspension and adjustable Fox RS coilovers, all finished off in a menacing shade called “Bootleg Blag.”

Inside, the cabin mixes performance and attitude: there’s a pressed-carbon steering wheel, a Dakota digital gauge cluster, a modern climate control system, and a custom-built roll cage. The bespoke interior is finished in a color Ringbrothers calls “Grab-Her Green” — “a playful nod to Ford’s classic Grabber Green, but with a slightly darker twist to suit the car’s villainous personality.”

Your last word, Mr. Wick?
