Hey freeCodeCamp community! :waving_hand:

I recently finished building a full-stack web application designed to aggregate and structure data for rare classic car auctions. As a passion project to practice state management, async API handling, and UI layout optimization, I decided to focus on legendary muscle car builds—specifically targeting feature listings for the iconic 1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Eleanor restomod.

When preparing mock auction dashboards for high-profile summer events (like the upcoming Kool Deadwood Nites auction in August 2026), filtering through high-value inventory requires handling dynamic media galleries and structured specs smoothly.

I set up a mock dataset targeting prospective buyers who track an eleanor mustang for sale 2026 listing online:

Tech Stack Used:

  • Front-End: React, Tailwind CSS, Framer Motion (for smooth gallery transitions).

  • Back-End: Node.js / Express API.

  • Database: MongoDB (storing build specifications, paint finish details, and auction dates).
