2014 Steeda GT500 Wide-Body Conversion

 

Designed, Engineered, and handcrafted to up the ante in the world of Mustang performance, this 2014 Steeda Certified GT500 Wide-Body Conversion is the latest offering from the Design and Performance Teams at Steeda Autosports. 

Providing an extremely aggressive appearance, this one-of-one wide-body conversion is not only sinister looking in it’s appearance, but it also provides the opportunity to dramatically increase the wheel/tire size so as to provide dramatically increased traction – something desperately needed when over 700 wild horsepower is unleashed on the unsuspecting asphalt.  

We started with a brand new 2014 GT500 with the supercharged 5.8L modular V8 and loaded it up with ALL of the factory options available – everything from Equipment Group 821A to the following options to make it the most equipped base-level GT500 available from Ford:

  • SVT Track Package
  • Electronics Package with Navigation
  • Glass Roof
  • Recaro Seats
  • Car Cover

Then we performed the started our masterwork conversion by handcrafting a unique wide-body conversion design treatment that provided both subtle and dramatic body enhancements and added the proprietary Steeda powertrain and suspension upgrades - all designed to create an unforgettable dynamic driving experience:  The Steeda GT500 Wide-Body.  

Modification features (standard and optional) included in this wide-body conversion include the following custom designed features:

  • Uniquely designed front facia that flows into the widened fenders and incorporate integrated cooling ducts
  • Front fenders widened a total of 6” to provide increased space for larger tire and wheel packages up to 22” wheels and tire sized up to 285x30x22
  • Rear fenders widened a total of 7” to provide greatly enhanced traction via the use of wider rear tires up to 335x25x22
  • Shaved door handles and an electronic door opening mechanism for a smooth-clean aero appearance that compliments the smooth lines of the fender modifications
  • Unique rear decklid treatment that subscribes to the theory:  “Less is More” by featuring a clean appearance with the Cobra Snake proudly on display

Other proprietary performance modifications included in this base level package include:

   Steeda coil-over Strut/Shock Assembly

   Steeda Upper Strut Mount Kit

   Steeda Adjustable 3rd-Link Trailing Arm Kit

   Steeda Lower Trailing Arm relocation brackets

   Steeda Billet Lower Trailing Arms

   Steeda X5 Ball Joint Kit

Huge, pricey trucks haul jobs and profits for the Detroit Three

Tue, Feb 5 2019

DECATUR, Texas — Mickey McMaster is on his 12th pickup truck. The 61-year old farm equipment dealer in Decatur, Texas, two weeks ago treated himself to a 2019 GMC Denali for around $69,000 — a reward for long hours at work. "For me this is the Cadillac of trucks, it's a real luxury vehicle," McMaster said. "I've worked my way up to afford a truck like this and it shows that I've earned it." McMaster is the kind of customer General Motors Co is banking on as it plans to add 1,000 jobs at a plant in Flint, Michigan that will build a new generation of its largest pickups. Demand from Texas and other heartland states for big pick-ups is providing a lifeline to many workers the No. 1 U.S. automaker is laying off at plants elsewhere. The Detroit Three automakers and thousands of their U.S. workers are counting on customers like McMaster to keep buying bigger and more luxurious pickup trucks even if overall U.S. vehicle demand weakens this year, as most analysts predict. At Flint, GM will build a new generation of its heavy-duty Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierras, including luxury models that are some of the most profitable vehicles on the planet. GM, Ford Motor Co and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV's Ram division own the segment and are each doubling down with new or redesigned models launching this year. Sales of heavy-duty pickups in the United States have grown to more than 600,000 vehicles a year, up more than 20 percent since 2013, according to industry data. Prices for luxury models can easily top $70,000. GM on Tuesday celebrated the launch of a new generation of heavy-duty GMC and Chevrolet pickups at the assembly plant in Flint, Michigan, that is now building all such trucks for the company. At the same time that GM is laying off thousands of U.S. workers and planning to shutter five North American factories, Flint is hiring. The plant runs on three daily shifts, six days a week. As the new model's assembly system ramps up, the plant's capacity will increase by more than 25 percent, plant manager Mike Perez told Reuters. The Flint plant plans to add 1,000 workers, more than half of the 1,500 factory workers who have asked to transfer from plants GM has targeted for shutdown as part of CEO Mary Barra's restructuring plan. "We're bringing in 50 to 100 people every week," said Perez. Workers last week were still finishing the job of retooling the Flint factory to build the new heavy-duty trucks as part of a $1.5 billion investment project.

Jay Leno's Garage goes eco with Ricardo HyBoost

Mon, 17 Mar 2014

"Now before you turn away, this is not another boring hybrid car thing..." Despite the slightly defensive introduction from Jay, the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage is actually pretty fascinating. The Ricardo HyBoost is a 2009 Ford Focus that has had a 1.1-liter engine swapped in for the stock 2.0-liter four. That might not get you performance enthusiasts out there fired up, until, that is, you hear that the 1.1L is also fed by both a turbocharger and an electrically driven supercharger for an instant-on "torque-fill" effect. Sounds about right, considering that Ricardo engineering is part of the genius behind the McLaren P1.
Perhaps most exciting of all, the Ricardo folks say that the package should run somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,100. A sort of performance-hybrid that makes sense for the frugal driver and the enthusiast one, then. There's a lot more to the HyBoost, all of which can be seen in the video below.

Fiat boss Elkann being mentored by... Bill Ford?

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

Fiat Chairman John Elkann has been turning to an unusual source for advice on the car business. While speaking during an interview with The Detroit News, Elkann said he often asks Bill Ford Jr. for advice on how to proceed with the turnaround at Chrysler. "It's great to have the opportunity to share this with someone like Bill, who has experienced many things and gone through many things ... especially linked to Detroit." Elkann said.
As the Agnelli family heir, Elkann has inherited a long and fruitful friendship with the Ford family. While Giovanni Agnelli built his first Fiat four years before Henry Ford created his first vehicle, it was Ford that showed Agnelli the benefits of mass production and helped pave the way for what would become the Fiat empire.
Giovanni's grandson, Gianni, helped mentor Bill Ford when he was elected chairman of Ford Motor Company. Now, Ford is returning the favor by helping Elkann navigate the automotive industry's tumultuous waters.
