‘Mudstang’ Takes on Mustang in Hill Climb Battle

‘Mudstang’ Takes on Mustang in Hill Climb Battle

The concept of turning American muscle cars into jacked-up, four-wheel-drive mudslingers is nothing new. In fact, people have been doing it for decades. But this interesting S550 Ford Mustang dubbed “Mudstang” is a bit different than most of those builds. It isn’t lifted, but rather wears its giant wheels and tires outside of its bodywork, and packs a twin-turbo powerplant under the hood.

That apparently makes the Mudstang quite the riot to drive, but the owner wanted to see just how it might compare to a regular, stock Mustang of the same type. So that’s exactly what this video attempts to do — albeit on a hill climb, with the winner being the car that makes it the furthest up the incline before losing traction completely.
