As we told you last month, Matt Farah from The Smoking Tire recently bought a decommissioned California Highway Patrol Mustang 5.0. Before he can start souping it up, he needs to discover its current capabilities. And what better place to do that than on a track?

Really, watch as David Measell takes a wild ride in this 2000hp Fox-body Mustang as it runs over 100 feet down the strip at South […] More »

If you haven’t seen the videos of this ridiculously clean 900 HP Fox-body Saleen Mustang then you’re missing out, because it’s as clean and fast as they come.

Over the past 3 seasons of /BIG MUSCLE we’ve been getting inundated with emails requesting a Fox body Mustang. This is the car that, for many of us, was the gateway drug into hot-rodding. In fact, there are just as many of these cars in high-school parking lots today as there were 25 years ago. […] More »

You’d have to be living under a rock to have missed Project Top Notch. Buuuut in case you missed it, Top Notch is the wildest and craziest Fox-body I’ve ever seen. It sports crazy front suspension with a 5.0L Coyote Aluminator engine swap that’s set back 17 inches for a near perfect 51/49 f/r weight […] More »
