Hot Rod Magazine Feature Car! Incredible is a understatement!!! The following is an excerpt from a Feature Article in Modified Mustangs & Fords, November, 2010 Written By: Steve Baur Photography by: Marc Christ and Pete Epple "While perusing the grounds of Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, Illinois during the NMRA/NMCA Super Bowl of Drag Racing back in July, we stumbled upon this absolutely gorgeous 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback that we simply had to learn more about. Because not only does it have looks that could kill, but a rather unique and powerful engine combination resting between the fender wells, making this one inspiring ride that could grab the attention of any car guy." Five Years in the Making "Originally intended to receive motivation from a 5.0-liter engine with a Vortech supercharger in a blow-through configuration, a conversation with veteran NHRA racer Tim Matherly convinced Grillot to take the direction of a modern modular engine. Like so many of us that begin with humble plans that escalated out of control, a naturally aspirated combination drawn out on paper with plans to add boost later quickly turned into a forged bottom end and the fabrication of the turbo system seen under the hood today." “The car has truly exceeded my expectations for ride quality and power. We put a bunch of miles on it the week of Power Tour and it performed flawlessly. It cruises down the interstate at 80 mph at 2500 RPM and feels like a new car.” Built to Handle Underneath this slick ride, you'll find a complete aftermarket suspension system from Heidt’s, with a Mustang II front end featuring tubular A-arms and a sway bar that was custom fabricated. Out back is Heidt’s four-link suspension kit with coilover shocks, and a custom sway bar. Stopping power comes from a set of large rotors front and rear with Wilwood master cylinders. The body is adorned in PPG Performance Red, which is the same color found on the ’93 Cobra, and has an all steel tear drop hood that was custom made and welded to perfection. "It will blow the tires off at the top of any gear – except overdrive of course." Fast, Clean and Extremely Mean! "OVRBDGT" License Plate Says it ALL... NO EXPENSE SPARED! Dare to Compare! One of the Best Anywhere! If you are looking for a BLUE CHIP investment look no further. The "Buy it Now" is a tremendous value for a vehicle of this caliber!
