2007 Foose STALLION

NEWS & REVIEWS In addition to starring in that manic-paced Overhaulin’ television show, hot-rod guru Chip Foose is also working with Texas-based Mustang magicians, Unique Performance, creating some of the coolest pony cars around. One of their newest offerings is a beefed-up, pumped-up, testosterone fueled version of the new Mustang GT, called the Stallion. The beauty of the conversion is that you can buy it straight from your friendly local Ford dealer for $42,065, which includes a new GT. It’s essentially a styling package that features a Chip Foose-designed body kit, including a modified hood with a giant air scoop, a new billet grille, a deep front spoiler with twin driving lights, and a rear deck spoiler. The car rolls on Foose-designed 20-inch rims covering four-piston Baer calipers that clamp Eradispeed 15- inch rotors. Inside, the Stallion gets custom leather seats and new dash trim panels. Production is being restricted to just 3,000 cars a year to ensure you won’t see another in the stable. PHOTOS: click photos to enlarge

They’ll also get Unique Performance Parts rear suspensions, four-wheel Baer disc brakes, Foose rims, and the full Foose custom-body treatments.
