Since Anna Maddox has always been partial to Fords, she and her husband, Larry, decided a radically enhanced Mustang GT was just what the family needed. This daily driver is designed to motivate Anna, her son, Grayson, and Grayson's buddy, Cameron, around town in great style and safety. Imagine riding to school every morning in a car like this when you were a kid. This particular band of Mustang lovers takes this project seriously. They even have their own custom shirts to prove it-as if the Mustang wasn't proof enough.
The engine bays on all Two-Valve Mustangs have a fairly busy look to them. Yet the addition of a Vortech supercharger is so visually dominating, the background clutter is far less noticeable. The blower housing and its required ducting create a serious look.
The Bright Metallic Silver paint makes almost any car look good, but when you start with something as striking as a Mustang GT, you are suddenly way ahead of the competition. The tasteful addition of a Steeda hood and rear wing, along with the Racing Hart wheels, give the car just the right degree of outrageousness.
