What more can I say ??? My mechanic, Herrod Motorsport, built this little baby for Ford Australia.
Check out the photo's I took of it on the weekend and read the Article below.
....and Yes. I went for a ride in it
Article from Street Machine
Australian-engineered, supercharged, V10-engined Mustang convertible. Ford’s high-glam showstopper was scheduled to make the first of a multitude of public appearances on the burnout track at Summernats. Sadly, it just didn’t happen.
It seems there’s still some development work to do, despite the fact the Mustang was delivered to Broadmeadows on July 25th last year. Ford wasn’t comfortable about putting an untested car on show in front of a crowd of thousands, so it pulled the pin. Imagine the embarrassment if the Mustang shat itself on the start line.
But the blown V10 Mustang wasn’t built merely to burn rubber. Ford’s aim was to build a driveable promotional car that would be equally adept at cutting hot laps around Mount Panorama, glimmering under florescent lights or blowing both bags at Summernats.
The big deal about the Mustang is obviously what’s been stuffed under the bonnet, namely a 6.7-litre V10 sourced from the USA’s F-series truck range and supercharged by Sprintex in WA.

I would love to see that made. There was a Ford dealer in Las Vegas that did that in 1998, it was at the Bright Light City Cruise, a fund raiser for the never done Mustang Museum

Do you have WinZip? If not get it here. It is the most popular program for opening .zip files. As soon as I get home tonight I will host the pictures on my server.
No I don't, I did a search and couldn't find it. The OzMan is going to e-mail it to me though.

Woe to him who builds his palace by unrighteousness,his upper rooms by injustice,making his countrymen work for nothing...Does it make you a king to have more and more cedar?Did not your father have food and drink?He did what was right and just,so all went well with him. He defended the cause of the poor and needy,and so all went well...But your eyes and your heart are set only on dishonest gain,on shedding innocent blood and on oppression and extortion. Jer 22:13, 15-17
