Unique opportunity to acquire The Ultimate Pro Touring Mustang Fastback
Do your diligence and see for yourself. Mustangs like this rarely come to market as the market is saturated with
lesser quality builds and bad Eleanor clones.
The real deal is right here! A Top build is the sum of the best components and the skilled craftsman behind it.
The Ultimate Pro Touring Mustang FastbackThese are bold statements but considering the offerings on the market over the past 5 years we feel this build
clearly justifies our claim. Cars of this caliber RARELY come up for sale as owner’s commission top builders all
over the USA to build their dream car and they sit in private collections for many years. Some of the wildest Pro
Tour Mustangs built have had blank check funding totaling up to $700,000. The last incredible 69/70 Mustang
Fastback to be sold to the public was the Ring Brothers Dragon, which sold for $385,000+ buyers premium and sales
tax 2 years ago in Scottsdale. The final cost was well over $400,000 for that killer car and there hasn’t been
another 69/70 fastback built to that that level since. The 69/70 Mustang fastbacks are becoming so coveted because
of their historic Trans Am roots and their bad ass styling as buyers today are enthusiastically seeking these
models built with modern amenities and just enough custom flare to make it unique and more enjoyable. If you have
ever driven a stock 69/70 Mustang even a Boss 429 they are nothing to write home about and are unsafe in their
handling and braking on our congested public roads. This Pro Touring Ford Mustang Mach 1 can be shown nationally at
any Goodguys event with honors due to the level of craftsmanship and detail throughout. It can compete in the
Optima Street Car Challenge and any SCCA Autocross and Street Machine of the Year events and be eligible for
vintage racing in specified classes. The Mach 1 was originally built for a private VIP client of ours who
meticulously demanded the best so we designed and developed this car over the course of 2 years. The car is
properly sorted and turn key. The brake system and suspension were developed by the leaders at Detroit Speed while
leading suspension engineers at JRI, sorted and fine tuned the dampening and spring rates for months. The full
sequential 8 throttle body 427 engine is so fine tuned you can drive it in 3 hour long traffic easier than a new
2016 Mustang and the monster 600+hp 427 Stack Injected motor runs cooler than the modern modular 5.0. This car not
only looks incredible but it drives unlike any other custom built Mustang in the country and will out handle any
other Pro touring car on the market with the right skilled driver behind the wheel and planted in the Porsche 997
turbo bucket seats that were custom tailored for this car. This Ford Mustang Mach 1 Pro Touring is a balanced and
well-executed masterpiece. Tenaciously fabricated and built with precision by true artisans and performance
engineers with the goal of creating the ultimate modified Mustang fastback in the world. Not overdone with shaved
door handles and unreliable and jarring airbag suspension or cheap Billet wheels. This car was built with style,
luxury and performance, This car is the perfect mix of original classic 69/70 Mustang styling with the proper
modern touches juxtaposed perfectly to create the masterpiece that it is. The best components and partners were
instrumental in this build to truly make it spectacular.
What stated with an original September 1969 built Mach 1 according to the Marti Report was meticulously transformed
into a work of art after over 2500 hours of true artisan craft was dedicated towards this build. The parts cost on
this project was over $150,000 not including all labor. The rust free original donor car was $52,000. This build
cost the owner well over the current asking price. Do the math and realize a top tier build does not come cheap but
starting with a rust bucket and inferior bolt on parts never makes any sense in the end. This Mach 1 wears all
original sheet-metal and you know how rare this is. The body modifications are so subtle while we retained the true
classic lines of the original design by enhancing just the right areas without going overboard on the theme which
usually takes away from the styling. Our parent division ACS Garage, a team of highly trained custom car builders
and performance engineers who have built multi million dollar cars over the past 25 years, exotic, muscle and
Concour level restorations . ACS Garage partnered with the BEST vendors in the industry to make this project a
reality. This car was built to drive, handle and perform beyond the levels of most custom car builds. The majority
of components on this build are one-off. We turned to the most dedicated racing circle of industry experts in the
world by using Nascar engineers and companies to offer the best of the best in performance parts. The level of key
components that were designed, engineered and perfected for this car all come from Nascar country.
The vehicle has garnered worldwide appeal because car enthusiasts know it was built right. Our partnering vendors
still say it is one of their favorite builds as they regularly blast the car on social media. Detailed top to
bottom from the meticulously polished stainless steel screws and hardware throughout to every square inch of the
custom patterned and tailored Italian leather interior that would be at home in any Hermes workshop. The body is
straight as an arrow and the black paint reflections are nothing but breathtaking, the photos speak for themselves.
The car can be shown with mirrors under it’s gleaming skin as all of the hardware is polished and all other
components expertly painted or powder coated to perfection. The exhaust system itself is a work of stainless steel
sculptural art.
There are a ton of junk boxes on the market these days and if anyone is knowledgeable you can pick those cars out
quite easily. All you need to do is see their spec sheets and look up the costs of those parts versus what we are
disclosing on this build to see the drastic differences. There are even cars on the market priced well over ours
that are running a carbureted engine or a glorified fox body donor 302 and some using a REPOP body shell from
Taiwan with no authentic Ford serial numbers for title and registration. This Mach 1 has serious mass appeal inside
and out, the best parts you can source and some of the most amazing custom car talent thrown in for good measure.
We have over a 1000 photos and support docs documenting the entire build which will be included in the sale along
with testing and development media, software files for different fuels and driving conditions, spare parts and
detailed support for the next owner on set up, alignment, braking. Full disclosure of all build costs and parts
costs will be given to the new owner.

Ford to add Android Auto and CarPlay to 2016 SYNC 3 cars via update
Fri, May 19 2017Ford is updating a large number of 2016 model year cars equipped with SYNC 3 infotainment software, adding Android Auto and CarPlay to the vehicles with a free, over-the-air update via Wi-Fi, or using either USB or going through their dealer. The upgrade will be available for around 800,000 vehicles in total, giving a huge number of Ford car owners the chance to get big infotainment improvements without having to buy a newer model car. The OTA update option is also a big step for Ford – it's the company's first for software ever, and it's one of the major reasons that Ford recently hired around 400 new mobile smartphone engineers, the company tells me. For CarPlay, users will still also need to upgrade their vehicle's USB hub to make this work (which will also incur a dealer visit and a cost), but for those on Android, all that's required is a simple software installation. The USB install method is also faster, but the Wi-Fi update option is the start of the company's efforts to really increase its OTA update program, which will be used for security improvements as well as infotainment bumps. Even with a dealer visit and hardware upgrade for CarPlay, this sounds like a worthwhile thing for 2016 vehicle owners to do. CarPlay and Android Auto are huge upgrades vs. most in-car software, offering navigation and entertainment options that follow you from your phone to your car. Retroactively offering this kind of thing to car owners is a definite change in tone for carmakers, since they typically use these kinds of things as incentives to get people interested in vehicle model updates. But as data becomes increasingly important to automakers as a business, it makes sense to encourage greater in-car use of devices.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunchRelated Video: Auto News Ford Lincoln Technology Infotainment android
EarthCruiser adds a bigger camper option to its heavy duty pickup line
Tue, Sep 29 2020EarthCruiser is a camper and expedition vehicle company based out of Oregon that we've previously covered for its huge commercial truck-based machines. But they offer more than that, from drop-in campers for smaller pickups to heavy duty pickup conversions. The company's latest product is one of the latter, offering a larger camping area than the current EXD model. This new camper conversion is called the Terranova. The big differentiator between it and the EXD is the camper section, which extends over the truck cab on the Terranova. This means that bed space can be moved to above the truck cab, instead of having to use a convertible dinette. So less reconfiguring, and generally more usable space. One other major difference is that the EXD is only available for the Ram 3500 and Ford F-350. The Terranova is being designed for both of those trucks as well as the Chevy Silverado 3500. The EarthCruiser Terranova is otherwise very similar to other EarthCruiser models. The camper section is made of fiberglass and plastic, and the pop-up roof is insulated with foam. The curtains are triple-layered. The company says it can house four people. It comes with a freshwater tank and pump to help supply the kitchen sink, drinking water tap, bathroom sink and indoor and outdoor showers. There's also a cassette toilet. The kitchen features an induction stove top and small refrigerator and freezer. A fan system is standard, and air conditioning is optional. Power comes from a 400-aH lithium-ion battery. The Terranova isn't yet available. EarthCruiser is finishing up design and engineering, and it plans to have finished examples early next year. The company is taking reservations now, though. Pricing hasn't been announced, but an EXD runs between $220,000 and $265,000, and we would expect the Terranova to cost even more.

Plug In 2014: ALTe ready to join Ford's EQVM to convert, sell F-150 PHEV [w/video]
Mon, Aug 4 2014It's been a while since we've checked in with ALTe and its plans to convert big work vehicles like the Ford F-150 into plug-in hybrids. So, when we saw a demonstration vehicle sitting outside the San Jose Convention Center at the Plug In 2014 Conference last week, we had to get a closer look. When we did, we realized that it's been quite some time since we've been in a Ride & Drive vehicle that was all beat to heck. It's been quite some time since we've been in a Ride & Drive vehicle that was all beat to heck. The reason for the well-worn F-150 with 30,000 miles on it is that ALTe has been showing off its extended-range EV technology to lots of people all around the country, and Kyle Maki has been the man on the scene more often than not. "This one, I've taken all over the country," he told AutoblogGreen. "I've wore out that seat, I think. The only reason this one wasn't driven here was because we were in Charlotte [NC] last week and I didn't want to take a chance and not make it in time for this event." In other words, ALTe is out there, ginning up excitement for the idea of a plug-in hybrid Ford with an electric range of up to 40 miles and which can then continue on gas for another 360 miles at around about 25 miles per gallon. ALTe wants to not only convert new vehicles but it also offers retrofits for fleets that are happy with their current fleet. The company offers converted versions of the Ford E350 and E450 utility vehicles now but the near-mythical F-150 PHEV is still "coming soon." Yes, orders are now being accepted, but you will be forgiven if you think this is all happening on a slow time scale. There are simply a lot of things to do before ALTe can sell the truck. ALTe is currently attempting to join Ford's EQVM program, which is the electric version of the standard Qualified Vehicle Modifiers program. The QVM program requires coachbuilders to "be successfully evaluated by Ford Motor Company on criteria such as engineering, the manufacturing process, quality control, and adherence to Ford and Lincoln Divisions guidelines." Qualified applicants must also meet all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, conform to Ford/Lincoln conversion guidelines and agree to be inspected annually as well as have a "commitment to continuous improvement." Maki has a simpler explanation. "It basically means you're a preferred supplier, a Tier 1, if you will," he said.
