Introducing the new Tickford Trans-Am.
50 years ago, Sandown race track witnessed the introduction of a special Ford Mustang that would soon become an icon of Australian motorsport. Driven by Allan Moffat, the car saw 101 victories from 151 races, amongst scores of qualifying and lap records.
That car became the legendary 1969 Trans-Am Boss 302 Mustang or as it became colloquially known, the Coca-Cola Mustang.
In 1969, Ford’s racing division Kar Kraft delivered the M-Code 302 Boss Mustang to Ford US to be raced in the US Trans-Am series. However, with some strong persuasion, one of the seven ’69 Trans-Ams built was brought to Australia to be raced in the Touring Car championship by Allan Moffat. The unique combination of a state-of-the-art Mustang and the skill of Moffat propelled the ’69 Trans-Am into the history books.
And today, Tickford announce their celebration of this unique achievement by drawing on their engineering-led vehicle enhancement program and creating the limited edition Tickford Trans-Am Mustang to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the original, in association with Allan.

Best Tickford Mustang to date. Drop the decals excluding the blackouts and keep the rest.
Honestly, prefer the earlier Moffat mustang special.
Would rather have the Bathurst Tickford mustang over this one.
Love this.

Take all the stickers off it and leave the BOSS stripe, lets see what it should look like.
Also, at $53K for the Performance Plus edition on top of $65k for the Manual GT i'm interested to see what you're getting..Quote:
The Performance Edition and Performance Plus Edition both use the naturally aspirated V8 with the Tickford 400 tune to boost power to 400kW in the manual version.
The Tickford Trans-Am Mustang Performance Edition can be purchased for $32,995 incl. GST (excl. donor car) with the Performance Plus Edition listed at $52,995 incl. GST (excl. donor car).
$118K is a lot of money....
It is. It's hard to imagine what the premium would cover if both versions get the same engine remapping treatment. Maybe they are fitting a wide body kit (as per the Shelby SuperSnake) on it to increase the cars rear track and tyre size. That would look pretty tough and increase grip.Quote:

I know the why, but it just seems so wrong to call a mustang trans am....
