Vehicle Detail

1988 Mustang 5.0 SSGT GR40 Griggs Race Car This car is now being offered as a completed track car. To be more specific it's 99% track ready, but just needs some very minor final sorting/setup from the next owner. Please NO TRADES. We are at the bottom dollar that the owner will accept for the car. The 15K price is as is, where is, with no addtional parts or setup! The option for either will be available to the buyer at time of payment at their expense. Our customer has over 60K invested in this build! Low ball offers will be ignored, please call with any questions! The car has been completed for the most part, but what it still needs is the final chassis setup, for the car to be scaled and adjusted to suit the new owner. It currently has one Kirkey seat mounted, but we have an identical seat that we can mount in the passenger side if you would like to be able to carry passengers or an instructor. This car took well over $60,000 to build and is a great way to get on track safely and reliably. This car has been built as an extremely well prepared car that can either me raced tomorrow or run in HPDE over and over. It has the horsepower to be fast, it has the brakes to have the confidence to brake late and hard, and has the suspension to take just about anything you throw at it. You can jump in this car and starting learning or start racing. Buy this and save a ton of money over building one for yourself. No corners were cut in this build. The car itself started life as a 1988 Mustang GT that was campaigned in Showroom Stock with the SCCA. It is powered by a brand new heads/cam/intake combo on a brand new 302 shortblock. It dyno'd at 283rwhp and is quite strong. Many of our customer's have driven or ridden in our GR40 Street/Open Track coupe. It was Mark's daily driver and it's completely at home on the street or screaming through the uphill esses at VIR in any weather. We've proven time and time again that if you are in the market for the best performing Mustang possible, the answer is Griggs. If you are looking for the best performing Mustang racecar, Griggs is the ONLY answer. We installed a full Griggs World Challenge kit into a '88 Showroom stock (SSGT) Mustang Lx that was campaigned back in the day. This includes everything that our coupe has plus some heavy duty upgrades that allow it to live up to the abuse that wheel to wheel racing dishes out. The front lower control arms were stepped up to a set of Severe Duty arms, the chassis kit has some additional triangulation/bracing, the rear lower control arms are an additional 10 inches longer which require the stock torque boxes to be cut out and new lower control arm mounts were created. Along with the more extreme lower control arms in the rear, the panhard bar is replaced by a Watts-Link which allows more precise control of the rear axle. The cage was built by Bret Hamilton Enterprises of Powhatan, Va. Please call for specific details on everything that will be needed to complete this car.
