2013 Ford Mustang Shelby Gt500 5.8l Conversion on 2040-cars
Saginaw, Michigan, United States
2013 FORD MUSTANG w/ 5.8L GT500 ENGINE
This 2013 Mustang started life as base Mustang V6 has been fully converted to Shelby GT500 specification with a
Ford Racing 5.8L engine upgrade. The conversion was done by me and my guys at Rehagen Racing with a little help
from some of my Ford friends. The primary donor vehicle was a very low mile 2012 GT500. The bulk of the wiring is
from the 2012 GT500 that was professionally modified to factory specs to work with the 2013 engine harness. It was
a very difficult challenge to make everything work as factory-intended. This was a top quality conversion with all
factory components. The mileage shown on the dash is the current mileage on the conversion and powertrain and
interior. It still has the "New Car Smell" (because it mostly sits in my garage at home). As mentioned, the body
is originally a 2013 Mustang V6 that now has 2013 GT500 bodywork (bumpers, grilles, spoiler, etc..) I added the
Shelby Super Snake hood because I had it... The brakes are the big 2013 GT500 brakes with 6-Piston Brembo
calipers, 15" front rotors, and 13" rear rotors. Suspension is 2012 GT500 Track Pack specification. The seats are
the standard GT500 power seats with red stripes from a 2012 GT500. I have the Recaro seats with the same stripes
in one of my other project cars (2010 Boss 302 with Glass roof and HIDs..). If you MUST have the Recaro seats, I
can do the swap. PLEASE do not expect that to be an even swap. The Recaros are worth at least $2,000 more and I
don't work for free.
This is a very nice car that I have invested a LOT of time and money into. I hate to sell it. The problem is, I
just don't drive it enough to justify keeping it. I have too many cars, especially Mustangs. If you are looking
for a cool car that is priced well below a comparable performance level car, this is it. I have watched eBay and
the auto auctions. I know what the car is worth. If you NEED a real Shelby GT500, this is NOT the car for you!
If you want the performance and look of a Shelby with a $5k-$15k savings, this might be worth a look and a plane
ticket...
Serious buyers email me with questions.
If you're a serious buyer, I can provide more detail on the car...

Toyota hangs on to title of world's largest automaker for first half of 2013
Fri, 26 Jul 2013General Motors and Ford can have all the success they please, but it doesn't seem like America's two largest manufacturers are going to topple Toyota in the first half of 2013. According to Reuters, Toyota moved 4.91 million vehicles in the first six months of 2013, representing a 1.1-percent drop from the same period in 2012.
GM is on the rise, though, with a four-percent increase in global sales, to 4.85 million. Volkswagen, still sitting in third, saw a 5.5-percent jump to 4.7 million vehicles in the first half of 2013.
If this pace continues for Toyota, it'll finish 2013 in the top sales spot for the second year in a row. The manufacturer fell to third, behind GM and VW, in 2011 after earthquakes and tsunamis ravaged its production capacity.
Barrett-Jackson 2014: First production 2015 Ford Mustang earns $300k for JDRF [w/video]
Sat, 18 Jan 2014We've almost become immune to the huge dollar amounts that collectible cars earn for charity at Barrett-Jackson. To wit, $300,000 for the first production 2015 Ford Mustang initially didn't seem like very much money. In reality, though, it's probably about 10 times the actual asking price for the car, and we're pleased to report that 100 percent of the proceeds will go to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
According to Ford, the car's winning bidder will get to "choose a fastback with manual or automatic transmission, and any interior, exterior and stripe color combination offered by Ford on the all-new Mustang." Power will come from a slightly revised version of the well-known 5.0-liter V8 engine that will produce "more than 420hp and 396 pound-feet of torque."
We snapped live images of the 2015 Mustang prototype that Ford had on display here at Barrett-Jackson, and you can check them out above. The official auction description, along with a video of the auction as it happened live, is below.
Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?
Thu, 15 Nov 2012Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.
