Dealer Comments
2007 Ford Mustang GT Custom
When it comes to modifying cars, some people put an emphasis on improving the performance of their vehicle, while others lean more towards building a car that looks like nothing else on the road. There is no one right way to do a build like this, but if you have the resources, why not do both? That is exactly what builder Christopher Merkel did with this 2007 Ford Mustang GT, After years of classic Mustang modifications under his belt, Merkel decided it was time to start fresh with a brand new car, so in 2007, he went to his local Ford dealership and ordered a Mustang GT in an eye-popping shade known as Grabber Orange, and the build was on.
The modifications to the exterior are almost too numerous to list and the longer you stand looking at this Mustang, the more details you will notice. The first thing that jumps out is the carbon fiber hood with a massive cowl induction scoop, which is accented by dashes of the Grabber Orange paint. This is then matched in the rear by a carbon fiber decklid with a tall carbon fiber wing hanging off the rear. The wheels have been changed out for a set of 5-spoke chrome 20" Zinik wheels with more touches of Grabber Orange, and they are wrapped in a set of BFGoodrich tires. What is less obvious are some of the other more subtle modifications like the custom steel front fenders which are slightly wider than standard and have some tough looking vents integrated into them. Up front, a CSI lower splitter is color matched to the car and in the rear, a black Street Scene diffuser helps channel the air coming out from under the car while driving at speed. Only when you pull up at a show will people see one of the many tricks this car has up its sleeve- a set of modified Lamborghini scissor doors that help you make a real statement anytime you get in and out of the car.
The modifications continue inside the cabin which is outfitted with black leather, accented by more bright Grabber Orange on the seat centers, shift boot and door cards. Custom dash and center console trim is finished in a mirror-like aluminum finish and even the steering wheel and column stalks have been modified to match. In the center stack, a Pioneer LCD head unit controls the upgraded stereo system and offers modern music player adaptability. Behind the front seats, this Mustang was treated to a rear-seat delete and in its place sits a custom shelf with a pair of nitrous bottles which have also been color matched to the car. In true show-car fashion, these bottles flank a custom made carbon fiber sign which is backed by more Grabber Orange.
Not wanting to be accused of putting together a car that is all show and no go, the work that took place under the hood may be the most impressive part of this entire project. Starting with a 4.6-liter 3-valve V8, the motor was entirely rebuilt by Next-Generation Performance of Longmont, CO with an Eagle rotating assembly, mild head port, COMP Cams camshaft, and a 9.0:1 compression ratio to accommodate serious boost. On top of this engine sits a stunning, polished 2.3-liter Whipple supercharger which helps this engine produce an astonishing 627 horsepower at the rear wheels. If you find yourself in a situation where that isn't enough for you, the car is plumbed for a 100-shot of nitrous to bring total power over the mythical 700 mark. This is paired to a 5-speed manual gearbox which is topped by a Hurst T-Handle shifter and provides a nice, muscle car shift feel. To help harness all of this power, nearly every piece from the BMR Suspension catalog has been thrown at this car, which gives it both a perfect stance, and keeps it glued to the road.
In light of all the work carried out on this Mustang, it is no surprise that it has appeared in numerous magazines over the years, with a feature on the Motor Trend website talking about the build process. In the article, the owner claims that the car has won in excess of 110 shows and when he had it out at a drag strip, it effortlessly pulled a quarter mile in just 11.5 seconds. The amount of time, care and money that went into this build is evident by just standing next to the car and if you wanted to replicate it today, the cost would likely be astronomical. If you have been looking for a car with a proven track record of winning shows to put in your garage, this Mustang may be the perfect vehicle.
