In literary terminology, referring to something as a harbinger carries considerable weight. In a simple lexicon, it's defined as "one that indicates or foreshadows what is to come; a forerunner." That sounds like hype or hyperbole when slapped on a matte black Mustang, but, in fact, there truly is much more than meets the eye with this particular '69. To begin, this isn't a one-off toy for a rich boy; it's actually the prototype for a new line of extreme Mustang roller chassis. Like an OEM body-in-white program where bare bodies are prepped for racers to complete to their own spec, competition-ready Harbingers are created from scratch by Agent 47 with Dynacorn '69 Mustang bodies. That's not an embellishment; packages can be configured to be legal for just about any racing class, ranging from the loose rules on regular weekend warrior open-track cars, to the more exacting regulations placed on competitors racing in American V-8 Supercar Series, and pretty much everything in between. So right away, this car represents something muscle lovers have never had access to. Now the concept of a track car roller isn't new to the hobby in itself, and even with configurable specs, it's not exactly revolutionary. What makes this car different is in the level of execution and sophistication of the parts and company behind them.
