Ford previews Mustang ‘stampede’ headed for SEMA

October 22, 2014
Ford has previewed two of the Mustang tuner builds that will be heading to the 2014 SEMA show.
The company has reserved 20,000 square feet of floor space at the Las Vegas Convention Center, providing plenty of room to show off cars modified by top tuners such as Galpin Auto Sports, Petty’s Garage and MRT, among others.

“Expect to see plenty of 5.0-liter V8s roaring around SEMA, but the spotlight will be on the all-new 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, which provides a whole new platform for experienced turbocharging specialists,” the company said in a statement.

One teaser pic shows a Roush supercharged V8 model crafted by Petty’s Garage. It wears a blue-on-black color scheme and a discrete No. 43, paying homage to Richard Petty’s NASCAR legacy. It will be auctioned by Barrett-Jackson with proceeds going to Victory Junction, a charity that allows chronically ill children attend summer camp.

Another teaser reveals Galpin Auto Sports’ ‘golden’ anniversary car, celebrating 50 years of the Mustang. The tuner has restyled the front and rear fascia with a gold motif, while gold wheels and gold-flecked black paint help finish the look. Even the Whipple supercharger — good for 725 horsepower — has been powder-coated in gold.

SEMA attendees will have a chance to check out the full Mustang ‘stampede’ from November 4-7.
