DTO: Fast and Furious Tokyo Drifter: 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback

Does anybody remember that ulta-realistic third installment of the Fast and Furious series where high school kids (poor Texans and Yakuza members alike) drive 500 horsepower drift machines with easily $100k in aftermarket parts?  Between the RX-7s, Evos, Zs, and Tourans you might have missed the star of the movie, an RB26DETT swapped 1967 Ford Mustang fastback, except that isn't this car.  The Japanese inline-6 powered fastback was used for some static shots, but the real star of the climatic drift scene was a 403 cubic inch V8 powered beast that was bashed up on screen -- that's what we've got here today.
