I always loved the 05-09 Mustang body style. My first ever car purchase was an 07 Mustang. Earlier this year I came across a Facebook marketplace listing (dangerous place for wallets...) for a 2006 Screaming Yellow GT that had no drivetrain and jumped on it! Got the entire car for about $3500. The previous owner built out the original 4.6 but then had a difficult time selling the car which led to the part out that I benefited from. The car itself is in decent shape for a 16 year old vehicle but some paint and body work will be required.
The original plan was just to re-pin the harness for a gen 1 coyote computer and complete a f150 coyote swap. Boy how things have spiraled since then.....
Objectives for this project:
5.2 Voodoo (7.3 Godzilla selected instead)
10R80 transmission
complete re-wire to an 18+ vehicle to support the 10r80
Complete (or as much as reasonable) interior swap to S550 components
Upgraded suspension and brakes
Completion of the GT500 conversion with new front and rear bumpers
Believe it or not I am not the first person to attempt an S550 wiring and interior swap in a 05-09. Seeing others being successful at this lead me down this path of the 10r80 and wiring swap.
The pictures below represent the starting points! (yes I will be building a voodoo from the ground up). If I am lucky, I should be able to create my ultimate Mustang for around the $20k mark.
