1965 Ford Mustang Fastback Eleanor Test Car Driven By Nicholas Cage for Gone in 60 Seconds This car is the Famous and Documented "TESTBED TERROR" that was used by stunt drivers and Nicolas Cage. The 65 Mustang was also featured in Mustang Illustrated in April of 2000 as the Testbed Terror. The beautiful restoration was completed by Terry Buch and his company Total Control Products in the late 90Âs with a build sheet a mile long. It was then painted a few years ago and refreshed completely in July of 2013 with paint work and undercarriage.
