Another First For A Mustang

This week we have been working on a customer’s car who wishes not to be featured on our blog, of course we respect their privacy so there isn’t too much to show for our work unfortunately. However we can show you other things we have on the go;

Project Engine

We have a project in mind which we want to start soon, so we have started to build a pretty special engine for it. Unless somebody wants to buy it off us in the mean time of course, but be prepared for a little open wallet surgery as this power pack won’t be cheap. The engine we are building is a 351 Cleveland, 4v, four bolt main closed chamber heads. Now to most petrol heads that is sexy talk. What it means in layman’s terms is that this engine is strong and built for punishment. Not only will this engine be great for the street racer, you can drive it to a track, race it and then drive home again.

Magazine Feature

A little while ago we told you how Mustang Maniac entourage arrived at Santa Pod drag strip with A602s for a little private racing. We had some of our cars in the latest edition of the ‘Custom Car’ magazine. The bottom three pics on the left hand page.

Left to right; Yogi doing what he does best, burning rubber. Adam getting out the biggest badass UBB Mustang 1000bhp from storage. Spence not saying much – just letting his racing do the talking!

We think our pictures were much better to be honest!

Another Mustang First

Over the last few days there has been a lot of talk about Vaughn Gittin Jr. becoming the first person to drift the legendary 12.9 miles of the Nurburgring in his 900 horsepower Monster Energy Ford Mustang RTR. This video is spectacular to watch and listen to as well. It’s hard enough to complete a lap of this legendary circuit without coming of and rearranging a barrier or two, as many other videos will testify. Yet this gentleman (who we think must be mad), manages to do it pretty much sideways ALL the way around. Incredible.

We don’t own the copyright of this video, but we just had to share it with you to raise this guy’s profile. What an achievement and what a car, we still think he is mad though! 😀
