Ford Mustang X-1 Ready for Takeoff
Galpin Auto Sports Tuner has taken an all new Ford Mustang and combined it with the space fighter from The Last Starfighter to create the Mustang X-1. X-1 may look like something Luke Skywalker would drive, but it’s actually a tuned concept Super Car top be used as an Air Force recruitment tool – it may work even better then handing out copies of Call of Duty 4.
The X-1 features a three-valve Ford Racing heads inside the 4.6 liter engine, which brings it up to 500 horse power. Gull-wing doors swing upward to give it more of a “jet-like feel.”
Mustang X-1 contains one seat, like a jet plane, pedals on either side of the center console, with flight stick in the middle, replacing a steering wheel. Three “advanced instrumentation panels” take up a lot of space, and monitors on the panels show night/thermal-vision! Let’s hope this baby will be available for the general public to check out.
