The Ford Mustang is undoubtedly an American icon. The first production Mustang rolled off the assembly line in Dearborn, Michigan in March 1964 and was introduced to the public at the New York World's Fair on 17th April 1964. It was, and remains, one of the most successful product launches in automotive history, with the original Mustang selling over one million units in its first eighteen months alone. After five previous generations diluting the original 'Pony car', the sixth-generation arrived in 2013 to widespread consideration that Ford has perhaps returned the Mustang to its glory days. Publicly unveiled on the 5th of December 2013, in Dearborn, Michigan, New York, Los Angeles, California; Barcelona, Spain, Shanghai, China; and Sydney, Australia, with the internal project code name; S-550, with three engine options available: a newly developed 2. 3 litre EcoBoost with 310bhp, a 3. 7 litre 300bhp V6, or the 5. 0 litre Coyote 435bhp V8 with either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. A new independent rear suspension system was developed specifically for the new model. It also became the first factory version designed as a righthand drive export model to be sold overseas through Ford new car dealerships in righthand drive markets.
This intimidating 5. 0 litre V8 special edition was initially imported by Bill Shepherd Mustang in 2015. Part of a limited edition 50th Anniversary Performance Pack run, just 1, 964 examples were released to pay homage to the first generation Mustangs of 1964. Boasting retro stitching throughout, a retro-look instrument cluster surround, and exclusive Black leather upholstery embossed with the Mustang 50-year logo. Chrome accents around the rear taillights and a special 50-year plaque on the dash noting this special edition's place in history complete the many upgrades. The model was marketed as a 2014½ model, paying tribute to the original 1964½ model.
Not satisfied with the standard Mustangs appearance, and in the true spirit of enhancing the Mustangs, Fortis Auto Design worked closely with renowned specialists to create this one-off bespoke example. Extreme Dimensions created the bespoke wide arch moulded body, Diode Dynamics provided the lighting upgrades which include interior LEDs and RGBW +A Sequential Tri-Bar DRL upgrade, KW Automotive lowered the suspension, and a MagnaFlow competition exhaust was added providing ample audio to compliment the aggressive appearance. The Mustang has hydro-dipped carbon fibre dash panels and ROUSH bonnet scoop and vents.
The bodywork modifications don’t stop there however, in fact, arguably most notable is the fitment of scissor doors that give the Mustang additional flair. QuickLIFT ELITE bonnet kit, custom Avery Diamond Super Snake striping and Bullet alloy wheels with original style wheel spinners complete the exterior appearance. Offered now having covered just 27, 000 miles, the Mustang has a history file including documented service history including a service last month at Ford Bury St Edmunds, a collection of MOTs, a current no advisory MOT until July 2025, and a current V5C document. Professionally valeted bi-weekly in current ownership, the Mustang also benefits from a stage one ceramic coating at the start of this year. This truly one-off Mustang is undoubtedly not for shrinking violets and harks back to how original Mustang owners would upgrade their 'pony car'.
