You Can Buy This 600-Horsepower SEMA Mustang Restomod





You ever wonder what happens to a SEMA car? I think a lot of them wind up like the 1969 Ford Mustang you see here: for sale.

ou ever wonder what happens to a SEMA car? After a ton of hard work and blood, sweat, and tears goes into one, does it spontaneously combust once the show’s over? Reveal that it’s a Transformer and wage war in your city with its enemies?

Probably not. I think a lot of them wind up like the 1969 Ford Mustang you see here: for sale. RK Motors Classics is offering this 2011 SEMA exhibit for $155,000*. For that amount of coin, you get a rotisserie-restored convertible with a little lot extra. For instance, there’s a 427 cubic-inch Keith Craft Performance V8 under the vented two-tone hood. The small block “creates 600 dyno-proven horsepower” and is fitted with an Edelbrock Victor Jr. intake, KCP heads, an MSD Pro-Billet distributor, and JBA long-tube headers.

Power is routed through a Tremec TKO600 5-speed manual gearbox, a twin-disc clutch, and a Chassisworks rear axle and suspension. Drilled and slotted rotors clamped by six-piston wilwood calipers bring this “multi-trick pony” to a stop. Its custom DPE wheels (18 inches up front, 19 inches in the back) are wrapped in BF Goodrich g-Force T/A rubber.

The Street Seats interior features “Dakota Digital VHX gauges above Pioneer touchscreen audio that’s Bluetooth-wired, satellite-capable, MP3-compatible and navigation-ready.”

I think this silver and-Soft-Gray one-off looks pretty cool, except for its wheels. In my opinion, rollers with five thick spokes would’ve looked better. Check out the video tour of this restomod’s exterior and interior and let me know what you think of its looks – and its sound

I'm not sure I like the car. It seems to be having an identity crisis with too many different styling queues and no identifiable unifying theme. A lot of afterthoughts going on there.

I would never turn it down.

But I would really love to have a '67 or a '69 mostly stock, that I could feel good about putting miles on. I'd want to drive it.
