cletus Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Shame on Ford, confusing us by producing two V8s in the same capacities, and then Australianising one of them to boot. Can never remember which is which... and then theres the 302 boss engine, that was a windsor with clevo heads http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boss_302_Mustang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bronze Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Didn't the guy who made the OG Gone in 60 seconds run a scrap/wreckers yard too? Spent a few years amassing cars before making the film... I see where this is going. Fucking awesome. Can I help with the screen play? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 So hopefully the Mustang will be Landed in NZ in January sometime, fingers crossed. Bronze you are totally correct Toby HB Halicki was a wrecker owner too, and he's kind of my hero, and you are also spot on the ball with the amassing of cars. Yep it is going exactly where you think its going, we will be making a short movie at some point in time, we did a photo shoot with the Torino the other day, I'll get us all involved when the time comes And yeah Drums, I have no idea why the Disc option box wasn't ticked, but it certainly should have been 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, drums just add to the excitement; will it stop? won't it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 Man you wont believe the grief I had deviating from stock, since my car is a 1 0f 1, but honestly once you modify a car it truly is a 1 of 1. Since I've already gone the modify route I may go a LOT further Drums are great to stop you once, but only once, and not from high speed, since everyone who's ever been in a car with me knows that I drive like James Hunt after a particularly large party, and the Moosetang weighs as much as your average aircraft carrier, disc's are definitely in its future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted December 18, 2014 Author Share Posted December 18, 2014 That's the plan, either the Mustang or the Torino next year, time for a V8! I bet I'll still be slower than Bigfoots Scorpion, but at least I'll be louder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.e.d. Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Progress is gooood...so the pony has landed then? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share Posted January 22, 2015 Ah The Pony is awaiting Headliner at the moment, I've just replaced the Busted windscreen, and its due to depart next week for Kiwiland, Man I'm getting pretty excited It will owe me about $9000 landed, so I guess it was a pretty cheap daily driver quality Mustang really.
