The convertible is powered by the same Coyote 5.0-liter V-8 as the current factory Mustang GT. It has the same 10-speed automatic transmission normally bolted to this engine from the factory as well, but Ringbrothers added custom headers and a Flowmaster exhaust system.
New bodywork, designed in CAD, is widened and lengthened by 1.0 inch in each direction. The grille was set back by 2.0 inches, and the trim was treated with a silver-gray finish called Cerakote Titanium C-105P. Rather than the stock 14- or 15-inch wheels, Caged gets 18-inch wheels wrapped in Continental tires. Ringbrothers also added an independent rear suspension, Penske Racing coil-overs, and Baer brakes to improve the dynamics.
Ringbrothers says it put more than 4,200 hours into Caged and touched nearly every part to create the modern look with a stock-like appearance that the client wanted. The only factory Mustang parts are the wheel center caps, and many parts were created with a 3D printer.
