For Sale: 2008 Ford Mustang GT Race Car (black, twin-turbo 5.0L "Coyote" V8, 6-speed)

No expense was spared on this recently completed 2008 Ford Mustang GT race car build. The significant amount of work and money invested were only done so as this car was planned for life time use with no intention of ever selling it. Unfortunately due to some recent medical developments I can no longer participate in track driving on a regular basis. Otherwise I would have never invested so much money and personal hard work into making my "dream" Mustang track car. The build started in late 2017 and was just completed in 2020. The car has minimal track time in HPDE only, primarily for testing after each level of new upgrades. Over $100,000 has been invested and there is a customized open trailer set up. I have all the receipts from very reputable build shops. The parts alone, some almost new, are worth more than the asking price. There are very many upgrades well beyond the following that can be provided. The following is a primary list of all the new parts and upgrades,

ENGINE:

  • 2014 Coyote Gen1 engine with just over 39K miles upon installation from The Parts Farm

  • Twin Garrett GTX2067R turbos

  • BOV race ports

  • Intercoolers

  • Custom tig welded intake

  • Heat shields

  • 2011-2014 GT/Boss TSS Billet oil pump and crank gear with ARP bolt

  • Ford Racing Cobra Jet Intake

  • Super Cobra Jet throttle body

  • AEM Infinity Engine Management system

  • Custom carbon fiber dash

  • AIM data recorder, instrument display and SmartyCam

  • ARC8000 Relay panel

  • Master kill switch

  • VDM G meter/GPS speed vehicle dynamics module

  • 2011-2016 E85 fuel system

  • 2008 GT500 fuel level sender and module, twin pump, remote oil filter mount

  • Fluid Turbo Systems 304SS manifolds

  • All custom wiring front to rear. Note the car can easily be converted back to gasoline use

SUSPENSION, DRIVETRAIN, INTERIOR:

  • Griggs GR40RT racing suspension $ 16,000 just for parts, before installation

  • Watkins 10 point cage, gussetted to body

  • Apex 18" wheels

  • Baer "Extreme" system brakes with 6S Calipers

  • Front brake cooling ducts

  • Michelin 27/65S9 event tires

  • Sparco racing seats

  • Schroth 5 point harnesses

  • Momo detachable steering wheel

  • Front and rear tow hooks

  • Trunk mounted battery in safety box

  • Custom trunk release button

  • Sparco racing pedals

  • FAST cooling system with mounting bracket

  • Tremec Magnum XL 6 speed transmission wiht 8 bolt lightened steel flywheel

  • 1 piece aluminum driveshaft 900 HP

  • Strange axles

  • New rear end differential 3.73 gearing

OTHER PARTS EXTERIOR:

  • New front bumper assembly with new paint

  • Raxiom Gen 5 tailights

  • Smoked turn signals, rear center brake light

  • Shelby hood pins

  • Trackspec hood louvers

  • Noah car cover

TRAILER:

  • 2017 Big Tex Trailer 7 x 18 with TrailFX 8K power winch and custom welded bracket to hold mobile fuel pump

This car is absolutely amazing, received the best of everything, many hours of personal attention and in the right hands could easily win on a National level in various classes. The turbo power and Griggs suspension handling and adjustability makes this car competitive with or superior to many later model track cars both foreign and domestic. I'm very sad to be selling it but hope it can meet the full potential it was designed for. While it was primarily designed as a dream track car, it is still registered and could serve both track and street use if desired. There are many pictures documenting the entire build process from start to finish as well as trailer pictures, but I am limited to the amount allowed to post in the ad. More pictures, copies of receipts and details and can be provided to serious buyers for review.
