Dodge Cummins Pulls Hard On Foxbody Mustang!

by Wes

A Cummins-powered diesel truck runs a legitimate 9.18 seconds at 147.46 mph at a Pinks All Out event at Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, Ohio, numbers that would embarrass plenty of sports cars. The uploader even had to clarify it was a full quarter-mile pass after skeptical commenters assumed it was the shorter eighth-mile. Viewers in the comments cannot decide whether to be impressed or defensive about a truck running these numbers. Watch the launch and see why fifteen to twenty psi of boost changes everything.

Rusty 1969 Mach 1: Where the Rust Hides Decides Bargain or Money Pit

by Jack Harmon

You have found a 1969 Mustang Mach 1 fastback for a price that feels too good to be true, and the seller keeps saying it just needs “a little rust repair.” That sentence has ended more restoration dreams than any engine problem ever has. On these cars the rust you can see is rarely the rust that decides what the project will cost. The metal hiding behind carpet, under seam sealer, and inside the frame rails is what separates a rewarding build from a bottomless money pit. Before you hand over a deposit, here is what to look for, what the federal records say, and why a rough Mach 1 is still very much worth saving.

The Basics On How To Buy Your First Classic Mustang

by Wes

CJ Pony Parts built a first-time buyer’s guide to classic Mustangs around the actual mistakes their customers have made over the years, VIN mismatches on interior trim, cowl panel rust that only shows up after purchase, and impulse buys that skip inspection entirely. The comments add their own cautionary tales, including one buyer who did not discover a leaking cowl panel until years later. Prices on desirable fastback models have only climbed since. Watch before writing a check on your first one.

Mustang Fails Right Into A Construction Zone !!

by Wes

A Mustang crossing into a barricaded construction zone, a driver who may have hit both pedals at once, and a comment section that has spent years trying to figure out exactly what happened — this brief dashcam clip punches well above its modest view count. One recurring theory blames pedal confusion; another blames the tires entirely. Watch the few seconds of footage and decide for yourself which explanation holds up.

by Wes

Ford Performance and Roush Performance don’t put their names on aftermarket power numbers lightly, which is what makes this dealer-installed supercharger kit for the 2018 Mustang GT and F-150 worth paying attention to. The kit pushes the Mustang to 700 horsepower and the F-150 to 640, all while keeping the factory warranty fully intact. See exactly what Ford is backing and why it still matters for Coyote-powered owners.

Happy Birthday Mustang 1964½ to 2014

by Ross Mills

Ford expected to sell 100,000 Mustangs in the first year and passed that figure in about three months. Roughly 318,000 people bought one in the first model year, and a million had been sold inside eighteen months. The rush left its marks: cars leaving the line without headlight wiring harnesses, horn rings stamped Ford Falcon hiding under Mustang trim. Read on for why those mistakes are worth money now.

2003 Ford Mustang Terminator For Sale

by Wes

This 2003 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra convertible has covered under 4,400 miles since new, spending most of its life with a single Ford collector before landing at Vanguard Motor Sales. Under the hood is the supercharged 4.6-liter Terminator V8 that made this generation of Cobra famous, paired with a six-speed manual and a limited-slip rear end. The paint, top, and interior all read like a car barely broken in. Cars this clean rarely stay on a lot for long.

What a Real Shelby GT500 Restoration Exposes That a Show-Car Finish Hides

by Jack Harmon

You’ve found it — a stunning 1967 Shelby GT500, paint gleaming, engine bay detailed to concours standard, everything you dreamed about since you were staring at a Bullitt poster as a kid. But how much of what you’re looking at is genuinely original, and how much of what’s holding that car together was actually done right? A German restoration shop called V8-Werk has built a reputation making cars from this era better than the original — and watching how they work reveals just how much invisible engineering separates a properly sorted GT500 from one that only looks the part. Reproduction parts, real-world recalls, and decades-old brake and fuel systems can all hide behind a fresh coat of paint. Before you sign anything on a 1967 Shelby GT500, here’s what a genuine restoration reveals — and what NHTSA’s own recall and complaint files say buyers should double-check.

Unleash the 2024 Mustang Dark Horse: Heart-Pounding Sounds Revealed

by Jack Harmon

The 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse keeps the naturally aspirated V8 flagship formula alive with a specially tuned 5.0-liter Coyote engine and an active exhaust system offering four distinct sound modes. This video from The Fast Lane Car walks through quiet, normal, sport, and track settings, letting the exhaust note speak for itself. The escalation had commenters cracking jokes about the neighbors. Watch to hear exactly how loud track mode really gets.

Buying a 1970 Boss 302? The Wiring and Bodywork Are What Bite — Not the Engine

by Jack Harmon

You find the ad at 11 p.m., and it looks like the one you’ve been chasing for years: a 1970 Boss 302 in Grabber Blue, numbers-matching, fresh paint gleaming under the seller’s shop lights. What you don’t see in the photos is the 55 years of history hiding under that paint — the fender that was cut and welded back on after a collision, the wiring harness some previous owner spliced into with electrical tape and hope, the seat belt hardware that Ford itself twice recalled. The engine bay might be immaculate and the car could still bite you somewhere you never thought to look. That’s the real lesson buried in one of the most-watched Boss 302 build videos on YouTube right now, and it’s worth understanding before you wire a deposit to anyone.
