AMG power in the classic Ford Mustang GT Fastback!

And if you think it doesn't work anymore, a crazy American comes from somewhere. This phrase is more than appropriate for this completely rebuilt classic based on a F. And the vehicle does not necessarily contribute to the Mustang community that the last low blows in the form of Mustang Mach-E or this LS-Swap Mustang with eight turbochargers can digest. Because this vehicle also wants nothing know about the classic Mustang V8. The vehicle is one 1969 Ford Mustangthat something on Fast and Furious makes. But in contrast to the 1967 “Stang”, which was seen in “Tokyo Drift” and had an RB26 under the hood, this yellow one is made by one V8 driven.

Biturbo 5,5 liter V8 engine

But the engine does not listen to the surname Coyote, nor to Voodoo or even to Predator. If you take a closer look at the vehicle, you will see that an AMG has to work under the hood. How can you tell? For example to the Calipers and the huge perforated discs, the radiator grill with yellow AMG badge and even that Steering wheel in the cabin. These details provide clear indications that this car is from a AMG unit is driven. Namely from an AMG engine from an E63. Responsible for the Restomod conversion was the team of The AnarchyGarage from the UK. And that also explains why they preferred to opt for a European engine instead of an original from Ford. Of course the power will be only to Rear wheels sent and that leaves a little Muscle car style come up, right?

there is no second time

By the way, the car was standing for almost 25 years before the decision was made to use the Mustang Restomod Remodel. The proud owner even claims that this Mustang is unique in the world due to its AMG engine. And at least we don't know of any other specimen with this configuration. Expressed in numbers, this means that the 2012 E63 AMG biturbo 5,5-liter V8 engine (M 157 DE 55 AL), which is extremely clean in the engine compartment, brings at least 557 PS & 700 NM into the Mustang, when it instead of the standard version not the S variant would have been. But that's exactly what was installed. And that already means huge ex works 585 PS & 800 NM torque. And then the engine was still from MSL performance tuned.

MSL is a company that specializes in Mercedes tuning. Means Chiptuning and some other details the V8 now delivers crazy 721 PS and 1.200 Nm torque. So a little less power than the current Shelby GT500, but significantly more torque. And by the way, the almost 1,9 tonnes of the GT500 are also unavailable. Because this specimen weighs under 1.500 kg. It's a completely different world!

even the cockpit comes from the E63 AMG

And the AMG charm continues in the cabin. Because it is that Cockpit of the E63 AMG installed. The car even has a working one Launch Control and shift paddles on the AMG steering wheel. There were also the easy ones Seats from an A-class and even that Suspension one has the E-Class taken. In combination with the complete restored and freshly painted Body, the filigree dark gray alloy wheels (there is also a matching set of AMG Alus) with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires and the many modern details like the new ones Headlights front and back up to the roaring Sidepipe sport exhaust system we find this Frankenstein monster extremely successful.
