This is a custom Mustang built by retrobuilt.com, the car is really cool. The car looks like a 1967 Mustang, but in actuality this car is a S197 Mustang. The car has outside features of a car from the 60s, but has better performance with today’s technology so you are getting best of both worlds. If you are interested in buying one you can actually go to retrobuilt.com and order your own RSC-GT Mustang.

Stillen Mustang GT






Stillen Mustang GTThis is one bad ass Mustang, I was searching through youtube’s site and ended up finding a video on it by Webrides TV. Stillen takes a regular Mustang GT and does some major upgrades to it like a Magnuson roots-type supercharger and a very nice body kit. This custom Mustang is very smooth looking and reminds me a little of Eleanor from “Gone in 60 seconds,” I think it’s the 2 custom lights in front on the Mustang grille, really makes the car stand out.

UnKnown Mustang:1997 Saleen Mustang S351



1999 Saleen Mustang S351One of the most unknown Mustangs to date is the 1997 Saleen Mustang S351.  The car doesn’t get enough credit!  This stock Saleen Mustang can do 0-60mph in 4.6 seconds, that’s one hell of a time for a 1997 sports car.  The top speed on this car was around 170 mph, yes 170mph!!!  Now that’s pretty darn fast if you ask me!  Steve Saleen really did a nice job with this car, it’s very sharp.  I just love the ground effects on it, especially in front, gives it a one of a kind look to it.  To be honest with you I don’t think I have ever seen one of these Stangs out on the road.   I guess it makes sense with only 40 of them produced.  20 speedsters and only 20 convertibles, that makes this car pretty rare.

Mustang GTR



Mustang GTRIt really pisses me off Ford didn’t go further with the Mustang GTR. I know the GTR was a concept, but come on. The car looks amazing, I think it really turned heads when it showed up on Woodward and other cruises in my state, Michigan. I actually got a closer look of the mustang at the Harper Cruise a few years ago. Car was absolutely everything I thought it would be from its pictures. The engine is a 5.0-liter EFI “Cammer” crate engine, producing around 500 hp. Although the car is one hell of a beast, I remember hearing from one of the road test drivers it doesn’t perform like it should. Most likely it needs a better tune.

Mustang HeadlightsI really do like everything about it, the body design, the side pipes, and the color scheme. Main element I absolutely love is the pointed-split headlights, gives the car a mean aggressive look, which some mustangs lack. The grille ads a sort of cool muscular look to it also, along with the borderless mustang symbol. The spoiler is a little Tunerish, but I actually like it. Plus it’s actually functional unlike some of the ricers out there. The small bulge in the hood goes along nicely with the car also. Rear lights have a one of a kind look too them, haven’t seen them on any mustangs out there or in any aftermarket part store, which I’m kind of sorry to say.

Ford really produced a sweet concept, I know it would be way too expensive to make for the consumer and the company with the kind of mods it has. But they could still implement the headlights, rear lights, hood, or side pipes on some of the future model mustangs. Everyone I have talk too is always talking about this car, it’s just so sad Ford hasn’t done anything about it.

2008 Shelby GT-H



Mustang Shelby GT-H2008 Shelby GT-H marks one of my favorite mustangs put together for Ford. The way this one came about is really strange. Ford, Shelby, and Herz teamed up to make the car. I mean Herz? That’s a little strange, there aren’t too many renta-car-companies that do that sort of thing. It’s far from being a negative thing, I’m glad they decided to do it. They made one hell of a mustang. The feature I really like is the hood and the stripes. Wraps the car up nicely and gives it a one of a kind look. Oh yeah and the grille adds a nice touch too! Now they didn’t offer a huge performance upgrade in this model, but I still think they did a nice job with the car. The performance upgrades were a tuned suspension and a more sporty rear axle ration set at 3.55:1
