Throw on a small upgrade to the brakes nothing big maybe just better pads on the stock calipers and rotors along with maybe functional brake cooling ducts like in the rendering.

If the could make it for around high 30K-mid40K range i think they would sell like hotcakes to the road racing crowd or just to any of the older guys that want to remember the days when they owned an original Mach 1
I don't think anyone is going to buy a Mustang that has 25-50hp for around 40-45k when they could have the same basic engine without these small add-ons for roughly 30k. At least, I wouldn't imagine.
