Back in 1969, 50 years before this car was built, 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 just 151 races, amongst scores of qualifying and lap records. That car became the legendary 1969 Trans-am BOSS 302 Mustang or as it became known, the Coca-Cola Mustang. These cars are a modern interpretation and tribute to that car, limited to just 100 units however rumours are that less than a quarter of these were actually ever produced due to COVID shutdowns. The Tickford Trans Am pack received a large number of upgrades both cosmetic and of course, for performance. This car goes the next step over most of the Tickford T/As being optioned with a Roush Supercharger and Wilwood big brake kit all fitted by Tickford.
This example is build number 10 of 100 licenced to be built. Tickford allowed owners to choose their build number within the 2-99 range available upon ordering and the purchases weren’t given the option of build number 1 or 100 at that time. The car is unmodified from the way it left Tickford and has only travelled 23,167 kms from new. Tickford was strict about the donor cars to perform the conversion, requiring them to be FN models in factory Race Red. The outside of the car is transformed with a unique livery to emulate the 1969 Trans Am Mustang along with unique badging. The car has a lowered stance and sits over a set of Tickford 8 spoke 20” wheels to emulate the classic Minilite’s the original car wore.
Inside the car received a unique interior trim with red leather seats front and rear featuring black highlights and Tickford embroidered logos. There is a Trans Am leather wrapped steering wheel and retro inspired shift knob. The dash features a numbered build plate. The normal GT Mustang creature comforts exist with digital dash display, dual zone air conditioning, power windows, power seat and infotainment with Bluetooth connectivity.
Under the bonnet lives the 5.0L Coyote V8 which Tickford has transformed into an absolute monster thanks to a Roush Supercharger. The engine is paired to the factory 10 speed automatic transmission. The handling is improved thanks to coil overs and upgraded dampeners. The brakes have also received a massive upgrade with Shelby style Wilwood brakes featuring two piece rotors with six piston calipers up front and four piston calipers in the rear.
The car is completely unmodified from the way it left Tickford, is one owner and has only travelled 23,167 kms. This is a fantastic investment grade modern muscle car and a rare chance to grab a piece of Aussie motoring history.
