New Mustang 66.

[GIDYUP]

Hi guys thought some of u might be interested in this new mustang here in australia. It's taken a while to be built but here is the unveiling pic of it. As far as i know it's got a hemi in it, 2 superchargers, lowered, roof chopped 2 inches, tubbed. Don't know the specs on it as i havn't seen it for real yet but it's basically for a show car and drag car. I can't get over how big the motor is!

I'm lazy too

 

[GIDYUP]

Oh sorry guys i didn't realise it would ask for u to sign up to the forum just to see it. Ok i think i've got this worked out now.

 

[Ronstang]

Why didn't you warn us about there being Mustang rice in that photo!!!!!!! YUCK!!!!!!

 

[GIDYUP]

ronstang fair point, i knew original mustang guys wouldn't like it.

 

[Ronstang]

Hey it is OK. It is just that to me that kind of car is WAY over the top and reminds me of what idiots do to imports to say "HEY LOOK AT ME" even though they don't seem to understand that the message they are conveying is that they are a dumbass.

Actually that car reminds me of the type of cars you saw at big car shows like the Autorama here in the states way back in the 70's......and I didn't like them back then either. HAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[GIDYUP]

Yeah but your gonna have that "Hey look at me" kinda thing when it's a show car. But yeah i know what your saying.

 

[Ronstang]

It looks like the craftsmanship is nice....at least what I can tell from that pic, and that is what really is important even if the car does not suit my taste....I appreciate the passion and the work.

 

[one2gamble]

the engine is a little over the top for my liking but I kind of like the fact that someone spent that much time with a mustang. Not my cup of tea but hell whatever floats your boat.

 

[Platonic Solid]

Looks like a shrine to bad taste. I’ll buy fugly trailer queen for your local freak show, but a drag car without a roll cage??

 

[NorCal66]

2 S/C on top of each other like that...does that even work? Does it really do anything?

 

[65straightsick]

Yeah, it makes a freggin tall engine.... especially if it has been lowered and the top chopped...

 

[5.0n66]

well if the lower one was spinning faster than the top one it could be useful.... but what engine could take the kind of pressure it would make at high RPM?.... but yeah judging by the fact there is no rollcage and the trunk opens the wrong way (would be a dragracing liability)...I dont think they particularly care if it works or not.... heh does it even run? LOL...one might be gutted looks like it's just for show

Drag car, my tired ass. That is such a trailer/show queen I'd be surprised if it could get up on the display under it's own power. Double rootes blowers? Yeah, that's effective....that's why all the real drag racers run them. I guess the trunk lid is hinged backwards to act as an air brake so you don't need a chute. Hey, don't you need a roll bar to run faster than 11.99?

 

[MustangPaul]

Hmmm. Not my cup of tea. I wonder what was the original setup that they ruined, er, uh, modified to make that thing.

--P

 

[allcarfan]

i dont understand two superchargers??? well, i mean,,,,,roots on top of each other.

 

[GIDYUP]

wouldn't have a clue how the 2 superchargers work, havn't seen it for real yet. as far as i know it started as nothing much, basically a shell i think.

 

[allcarfan]

i have seen a dual roots blown car....just never stacked on top of each other.

 

[GIDYUP]

Yeah it's definately a bizarre setup but it must work cause he wouldn't go for just looks. Hopefully there's some figures on it soon.
6T6coupe - not sure on rules for roll cages here but there would have to be some sort of rule though for sure. I know i would want one if i was racing though. I'll let u know if he produces any time slips on it. I know it's got a full tubular chassis in it aswell. i myself don't see how this setup could be effective in a drag car but who knows.
