Well Sema has come and gone, but what an awesome experience!!! The Real Thing was a huge hit! We have never seen so many pictures taken of one car! The Real Thing had a crowd around it from start to finish especially when Mario Andretti showed up, sat in it, and autographed it, It was a media frenzi! To all of our fans, we apologize for making you wait so long to see it, we hope it was worth the wait! The Real Thing is a 1969 Mustang Boss 494. There was only 10 of these motors made back in 1969 by Holeman and Moody, contracted by Ford, and built for Mario Andretti's Can Am series race car. The chassis was engineered, designed, and built here at BS Industries as well as the suspension. The body has been chopped, widened, and is no longer a uni-body. Its got 14" Brembo brakes, that sits in massive 18"X15" Rushforth wheel in the back an 18"X8" in the front! Magnaflow supplied the 3" stainless steel builder kit for the exhaust, and its got Indy style electric steering by Flaming River, Optima red top battery, and K&N air filters. Ridetech supplied the car with there bad ass Titanium series shockwave with the Nitrogen filled canisters. The Motor was built by Brad and crew over at Qmp Racing, and what an awesome job they did by getting that thing together in 2 month's!! Also want to thank Coca Cola for jumping on board and supplying us with all of that Coke!! We are already in the process of building another Mustang and are taking orders! So don't wait to long or you might have to wait in line!! This car was a real challenge and was built in only 4 months and we couldn't be more proud of our crew and everybody that was involved! We especially want to thank our good friend Tom for all of his support and believing in us!!
