 THIS IS A ONE OF A KIND MUSTANG MODFOX!! It is featured in JAN 2014 MM&FF magazine and earned honorable mentions for the  top10 best mustangs in America! It is basically a 89 coupe shell sitting on a 2007 Gt500. I have hundreds of hours in this build!

ENGINE...2007 GT500 5.4 DOHC with a upgraded 2.8 Kenne Bell stg3 Supercharger kit. The engine has 17035 miles on it. It comes with SCT pre tuned tuner. It has 3 tunes. A 15psi pg tune that made 650rwhp. A rg 15psi tune that makes 675rwhp and last a 19psi tune that netted 748hp/620tq to the tires. JMS chip & performance done a outstanding job with this car. It runs, drives, idles, like a Honda accord. No stumbles, cold starts?? not any issues at all!!! smooth revs, no hiccups once so ever. Doesn't get any better then what it is now!!!

TRANNY... 2007 GT500 TR6060 6 speed manual transmission with a spec carbon twin disc hydraulic clutch. It uses a factory Gt500 shifter and X member as well.

REAR END... Fox body 8.8 with brand new 03-04 cobra traction unit. ( I chose this because I have never saw a terminator with one wheel pull) I used the GT500 355 gear ratio with chrome moly hardened 31 spline axles. 

BRAKES... Rear brakes are new edge with PBR calipers, ceramic pads. Front is New edge also with PBR dual piston calipers w/ ceramic pads. Drilled and slotted rotors were installed on all 4 corners. A GT500 power brake booster was used instead of hydrobooster. Yes this is probably the only 4v swap fox in the world with a brake booster lol. Wilwood proportional valve is used to control rear percentage.

SUSPENSION....The front is UPR K member kit for a mod swap. UPR CC plates. Off set rack bushings. UPR coil over kit (14/175). Strange 10 adjustable struts. The rear is pretty simple with Strange 10way adjustable shocks, stock 4cy springs. Steeda aluminum weight jacker LCA. Boxed UCA. Everything is rubber bushing. I wanted a smooth ride.

FUEL... The fox tank was modified to accept the GT500 hat assembly. Stock gt500 fuel filter, and injectors. High psi efi hose connects it all together. EVAP is deleted. KB twin BAP

WHEELS... 18X9 BBS's!! nuff said

EXTERIOR.... Bright Atlantic Blue is the paint color. Custom fiberglass side moldings ( these wont curl at the ends). New LMR front and rear bumpers. I used 93 front fenders for the large wheel openings. Ultra clear headlight kit.

INTERIOR.. When you set down in this FOX, you could swear your sitting in a GT500!! The entire cockpit is 2007 GT500. The fox floor was removed from the back seat to the front windshield and a 07 GT500 floorpan was puzzled in to replace it. So it retains the exact headroom and leg room as a GT500. Dash, console, seat, shifter, heat/ac box all use factory gt500 bolts or nuts. I incorporated the gt500 door panels with the fox panels. The inner door handles and lock along with the window switches are all gt500 and yes, the 1 touch auto function works. The rear seats, door panels and head liner were recovered to match the front GT500 seats.

EXHAUST... Stock manifolds, 2.5 H pipe, Borla PRO XS mufflers connect to 2.5 SS Tail pipes. Sounds very good and crisp.

MISC INFO... Pretty much everything on this car was customized for this swap. A tubular radiator support was built to retain the stock gt500 radiator and fan. It also uses the factory gt500 coolant reservoir, while a moroso tank provides extra coolant for the supercharger. A kenne bell heat exchanger was used and IAT's  stay well in range. Dugan Racing smoothie inner fenders were used. The entire engine harness is hidden. Also, there isn't one inch of original fox wiring still in this car. It was all replace with a complete...yelp, you guessed it. GT500 harness. From the head light all the way to the Tail lights. After two years of building, it is impossible to include everything unique about this car one page but I think you guys have the idea of what I have put into this car. Serious inquires only may text me for additional info. 601-490-4966. The next owner of this car will have the only one like it in the world so if your that one of a kind car guy, this is your chance to own it.. Good luck friends.

Ford F-100 'Snakebit' shown off by Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed at SEMA

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Ford, along with KISS bassist Gene Simmons and his wife, Shannon Tweed, used SEMA as a backdrop to pull the covers off Snakebit, a 1956 Ford F-100 pickup truck that's been updated with Shelby Mustang-derived styling bits and a 5.4-liter supercharged V8 engine. All 550 horsepower are funneled through a six-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels.
Underneath the custom bodywork sits a chassis that's been stretched five inches and a bed widened and bedecked with billet machined pieces that are supposed to look like wood. The 20-inch rear and 18-inch front wheels ape those of past Shelby Mustang models. The interior is swathed in two-tone leather with a bench seat designed to look - try to act surprised - like a Shelby Mustang.
Like what you see? Bidding for the truck will take place in 2014 at an unspecified Barrett-Jackson event (we'd assume Scottsdale). Proceeds will be used to help build a children's hospital in Saskatoon, in the province of Saskatchewan, where Ms. Tweed grew up. See the high-res gallery above and the press release down below for more.

Saab-powered Ford is the most unlikely drift car we've seen

Tue, Jan 19 2016

Yes, you read that headline correctly. It's supposed to be a Saab-powered Ford, and not the other way around (although we fully support the notion of a Sonnet with a Flathead V8). Apparently, some lunatic in the UK took an ass-less 1953 Ford Anglia, paired it with a turbocharged Saab engine, and tuned the entire thing to go drifting. We like it. Called Urchfab, it's the subject of Carfection's (the blokes formerly known as XCar) latest video. Aside from looking like an extra from the British version of Mad Max, it has a problem with grip, in that there's just too much of it. This car is a fabber's dream, as we get to see its unnamed owner fashion new bits and bobs for the suspension before having an unfortunate encounter with a wall at Castle Combe. You can check out the full video up at the top of the page for a closer look at this monstrous Anglia. Related Video:

Lincoln recycling tree fibers into new MKX armrest

Thu, Feb 27 2014

Want to hug a tree, or at least a really small part of one. Then set your arm down on one of those armrests in the 2014 Lincoln MKX crossover. The US automaker is working with Weyerhaeuser and Johnson Controls on a tree-based, cellulose-reinforced polypropylene material used in the component that connects the armrest to the floor console, Wards Auto says. With properties similar to plastic, the tree-based material replaces fiberglass and is about six percent lighter. No big deal for now, but if the material starts getting used for things like battery trays and interior storage covers, that loss in weight may eventually start adding up enough to boost fuel economy a bit, providing a green double bonus. Lincoln parent Ford, which isn't saying how much more (or less?) it costs to use the new material, established its Biomaterials and Plastics Research team in 2001. In 2007, the company began using soy-based foam in car seats used for models such as the Lincoln Navigator and Ford Mustang and has since broadened biomaterials use to components like floormats and cupholder inserts. Ford also used recycled plastic bottles from the 2012 North America International Auto Show for seats in the Focus Electric.
