Wow I sounds like you pulled parts from more different bodies than did Dr, FrankensteinThanks, Carl. I enjoy it every day.
By your front grill I am guessing that you have a 50th Aniv. Edition GT vert?
Hi Bobby
- Actually, I have combined modifications from:
- Used parts from 3 different 2015 Anniversary editions (wheels-West Virginia, grill-Indiana, taillights-Arizona)
- 2016 California Special hood & side Stripes from Ford
- 2019 California Special side scoops from Ford
- 2017 complete PP1 suspension from a Jersey car (incl trailing arms, etc.)
- Chrome trim rings for the Canadian fog lights
- Repainted the blade spoiler in black
- Steeda front lower brace
Between the white paint and chrome, I wanted more of a retro look. I received some excellent guidance from my local MCA Mustang Club.
Plus now, when I go over the back road bumps and curves, it doesn't wallow as much.

Im from Jersey, I never see e85 anywhere, and dont see it in NYC eitherI wouldn't change to E85 for anything. What if you went out of town into an area where E85 is rare. I personally don't see the advantage.
What kit?I’ve been rocking a twin turbo setup on my 15’ since 2019 and love it. There is no reduction in mileage from stock and you can just bump the boost up or down depending on what you’re doing. I usually keep it between 8-10 psi on 93 and just go anywhere without worrying about chasing fuel stations or pulley/belt issues. Going to turbos has been the best decision I’ve made with the car to date. The wife and I installed the whole thing ourselves and PBD dropped the tune in it and we’ve been going ever since…..about 40k miles now. We added most of the suspension modes along the way to keep it planted and safe to drive anywhere and really only need to upgrade the brakes to finish it off at some point. We just bought another kit for the wife’s 2011 vert with 64’s and i hope to make that one a little more street/strip since it’s her daily driver and it’s a solid axle car…
10.2….damn!!Paxton beefcake special added after I replaced just about everything under the body to make sure car stayed on the road/track. 804 rwhp on E85 which is about all I ever run. Can switch to 93 octane if required. Runs 10.2 at about 137mph on qtr consistently. Have a plan for the HP you plan on running. Don't be one of those guys that ends up in the wall or in a ditch. Takes the fun out of the run. I only do test and tunes usually and wear full gear with 4 point roll cage so never had an issue at the track. Love the car. Drives great around town as well. My advice, go for it!
