1970 Mach I 302 Boss Look Mustang

Has been complete rebuilt true to its history with 351C engine, 4BBL Holley Double Pumper Carb, bare metal repaint

Example features how car has be dramatically improved from stock

Filled with DOT 5 racing fluid
· Period Correct 351 Cleveleand engine fully BUILT with upgraded high lift COMP CAM, forged pistons with
11:1 compression, Harland Sharp Roller Rockers… very powerful estimate 500+ HP. Have not dynoed car but judging
by current performance and by forged piston compression, roller rockers / internals of engine, headers, Magnaflow
custom exhaust etc.
· Boss 302 finish out for that “look” but note could be converted to Mach I look in maybe a weekend…
Heat gun remove stripes, buff, add Mach I rocker moldings. Rear honey comb trim between tail lights and strip on
trunk lid. Trunk lid is original OEM Mach I trunk lid without Mustang letter holes. So pick you look you have
both !
· Interior completely redone with Leather front seats done in larger more comfortable format then stock. New
headliner, sound deadening, dash, glass, rear trim, stereo etc. Note rear deck is covered in euro black vinyl,
hidden rear speakers for stereo
· Instrumentation is all modern digital but looks very OEM. New electronic tach, speedometer, odometer, hour

· Brand NEW staggered BFG raised white letter tires with larger rear tires then front brand new Mustang
upgraded 15 inch Magnum 500 wheels just like an OEM Boss
· Bottom of car and engine bay painted in Competition Yellow base coat and clear to give distinctive look.
If new owner wanted black engine bay could easily be changed - but doing in Yellow to match car was a big job and
nice appearance upgrade all done during completely disassembled shell stripped and painted. Note pictures of

fantastic !
· New OEM threaded insert rear louvers.. .not cheap imitation OEM real stuff
· Build documentation included in car most brochures for new equipment like gauges, wiring harness, exhaust,
engine cam etc. included in notebook in trunk of car
Most of all this car “goes” and is fun and a great platform to use as is or add more for modern daily driver !
Final note is this is a true Mach I all documented and could be re-badged as Mach I in probably a couple of days.
Basically just add in rocker moldings, honeycomb between tail lights and remove stripes with heat gun and install
Mach I badges. So just a unique opportunity to have BOTH looks..... Boss 302 look just classic and this car much
more modern, higher performance, easier to maintain then stock Boss 302. A Boss 302 in same condition of this car
probably North of 85K or more. If in time you decide you prefer Mach I look quick and cheap to change. Even
deck lid is original Mach I without "Mustang" letters in lid. So a great
high performance, totally updated re-stomod car that you can enjoy has is or as Mach I look.

Mustang-themed pinball game debuting in Chicago [w/video]

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

Believe it or not, but new pinball machines are still being made. Chicago-based Stern Pinball still makes them and has found a niche selling modern machines to individual buyers and arcade distributors. For its latest cabinet, Stern partnered with Ford to create a pinball game that pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Mustang, including the next generation. The new machine is being unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6 and goes on sale in March.
Stern is offering the machine in three variants. The pro-level machine is meant for arcades and public spaces and retails for $4,995. All of them come with background and cabinet art by Camilo Pardo, who designed the Ford GT, and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is the game's announcer. Depending on where players shoot the ball, they activate events that simulate drag racing, rallying, drifting and racing the Mustang, and hitting targets lets players shift the gears up and down.
An upgraded, premium table with added art will be added later for pinball machine collectors. The third model is a signed, special edition with art of the 1965 Mustang and 2015 Mustang on the machine and chrome and Mustang badges on the speaker grilles. Prices for these editions will be announced later.

Shelby GT500 and Roush Stage 3 go head to head at the drag strip

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

The Ford Mustang is a brilliantly affordable source of horsepower, with a base 300-plus-horsepower version available for well under $30,000. Jumping up to about $35,000 will get you a solid 420 horsepower from a high-revving V8, while those with some extra disposable income can get a pair of 600-plus-horsepower monsters. Both the Roush Stage 3 with its Phase 3 package and Ford's factory Shelby GT500 even crest the 650-horsepower mark, with 675 and 662 ponies, respectively.
Naturally, someone needed to find out which of these hi-po Mustangs was the quickest. And while this video is quite obviously a dealership commercial, at least there's some solid drag racing between two of the most powerful performance machines available for under $100,000.
With two NHRA drag racers at the wheel, the Stage 3 and GT500 go head to head for three races. Scroll down below to see the results in the full video.

Watch these videos of an NHRA racer's bodywork blowing off into a crowd

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

Just a few months ago, fan safety at racetracks was a hot topic following the last-lap NASCAR Nationwide Series crash at Daytona that sent large pieces of racecars into the grandstands injuring 33 fans. Now, a freak incident at a National Hot Rod Association event resulted in a drag racer's bodywork flying into the crowd at the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals in Charlotte over the weekend. The carbon-fiber body of Robert Hight's Ford Mustang funny car blew off toward the end of a run when his engine exploded, but fortunately, the two fans evaluated after the incident were later released without serious injury.
As you can see in the image above, the body flew high into the air before landing on a walkway in front of the grandstands, a bit of happenstance that likely gave most fans enough time and space to move out of the way. Scroll down to watch a couple of videos showing what happened, including one from a fan's perspective that also reveals what appears to be part of the body's metal bracing landing dangerously close to the crowd.
