You would have seen this Challenger if you recently watched the latest episode of West Coast Customs ‘Street Customs’ TV show that aired on TLC on March 26th, 2009. This one-off creation belongs to Joshua ‘Chop’ Tobin aka the “King of Cars”, who is the owner of Las Vegas based car dealership, Towbin Dodge. The entire pimp job was done by the guys at West Coast Customs (WCC) and we must say that they have come up with something really good.

When money is not an issue, the number of things that can be done are, well infinite. The real show stoppers on this car are those oversized wide rear fenders, white paint with black striping, a new spoiler at the rear and blacked out rear lights. The star of the show however are the magnificent Asanti deep dish rims. The car is fitted with 24 inches up front and 26 inches at the rear. They seem truly special and the white-black matte finish combination along with their design and the depth of the rear rims are quite stunning. The only sad part are the disc brakes which look like milk bottle tops inside these huge rims and fail to fill out the space inside.

The first model of the limited edition high performance Barrett-Jackson Edition Roush Mustang was sold this weekend during the Barrett-Jackson auction at the South Florida Fairgrounds for $100,000, an amount in the vicinity of what its creators expected.

This 540hp 2010 ROUSH® Barrett-Jackson® Edition Mustang is the concept vehicle for 25 serialized builds to be done on 2010 model year pony cars, and brings together the racing and performance heritage of ROUSH Performance Products® with the sleek new Planet Color® Barrett-Jackson Collector Color Series paints and finishes with 25 custom colors, mid-coats and topcoats, including ‘Back in Black’ and ‘Red Hot Chili Pepper’ which are prominently displayed on this concept vehicle as the base color and graphics respectively.

According to a recent report by MotorAuthority, Ford is not planning a Turbo Mustang for now. We understand the tendency of this muscle car automaker – after all it has recently unveiled two other sophisticated powerplants for the 2011 model. The first is the 305-hp 3.7-liter V6 and the second is the new 412-hp 5.0-liter V8. Actually, the turbocharged engine makes an almost equal amount of torque, and because it is still a V6, there’s a notable weight savings over a V8 engine.

If we take a look at the past, we’ll see that in the 1980s, Ford produced a turbocharged model called the SVO. It used a 4-cylinder – with the lighter engine helping the car beat the old 5.0 in some tests.

Heads up, guys! The automaker has confirmed that the EcoBoost V6 will arrive in the F-150 later this year as a 2011 model.

Actually this is a Roush 427R, but the special edition, announced today by Paul Miller Ford, boasts only visual enhancements. However this Stang looks awesome with its new front fascia and front splitter, a rear fascia, side splitters and custom blue and black suede seating accents. The paintjob is great, too – jet black with University of Kentucky True Blue stripes. The power unit is the well-known 4.6l engine boosted with the help of the Roushcharger supercharger system.

“The inspiration for the outer appearance and the color scheme came from a Bill Keightley jersey that was given to me last year,” J.P Miller, General manager for Paul Miller Ford says. “It just seemed to be the perfect fit for this project.”

Only five copies of the Coach Cal Edition will be made and the sixth one is goingo to be owned by John Calipari (Coach Cal). According to kentucky.com, the car will be priced at a bit over $71,000, with a Mustang GT based version to retail for less than $40,000.

DEARBORN, Mich., Feb. 25, 2010 – Ford Super Duty customers expect and demand capability from the best-selling heavy-duty truck in America. For most Super Duty owners, it’s the core asset of their business. Day after day, year after year, it’s expected to deliver results in the most demanding situations. No nonsense. And never any excuses.

“Our Super Duty customers do some of America’s toughest jobs,” said Mark Fields, Ford president of The Americas. “Every day they’re out there working with little fanfare and all they ask is the right tool for the job. The new 2011 Super Duty offers them a truck with best-in-class towing and payload, all-new powertrains and even more capability than ever to help them do their jobs.”

Ford’s F-Series has been the best-selling line of trucks in the U.S. for 33 straight years. With class-leading torque, horsepower, fuel economy and towing and payload capability, the new Super Duty further underscores Ford’s Built Ford Tough legacy.

One of the most correct muscle car era NHRA record holder in existence, Project Six Pack. Campaigned from 1970-1975 by Struse, Smith & Welsh, the story of Project Six Pack was documented in the pages of “Super Stock” magazine for more than seven years. In total, articles surrounding Project Six Pack appeared in more than 77 magazines through 2002. A 3-time NHRA class record holder, Project Six Pack is one of the most authentic restored 55/A in the world, retaining its original sheet-metal, original glass, original record setting engine, restored Fenton Gyro wheels, Stahl mechanical tachometer and Dana 60 axle.

Restored in 2009 by Best of Show Automotive, the attention to detail on this restored muscle car era drag racer is nothing short of astonishing, from the original Hooker headers, to the painstakingly reproduced lace paint, to the original windshield wipers lying in the trunk, banded together with duct tape. And don’t mention the engine – a 7.2 L V8 monster muscle car heart paired with 4-speed manual transmission.

From one of the best Muscle Car shops in the country and built with one purpose, to create a super fast, eye popping custom. The car is driven only once since completion just for a test drive. The cool thing is that it has never been raced and has been stored in climate controlled storage. Features a 351ci (5.8L) Ford V8 with dual Holley carburetors, a 2-stage nitrous system, C4 automatic transmission, power steering, dual exhaust, Centerline polished rims, a Ford 9″ rear end and custom bucket seats. This cute bee yellow muscle car is top of the line everywhere. Check out the gallery after the jump.

Just a bit of history to begin with – The 2009 Dodge Challenger Drag Pak program commemorated the 40th anniversary of the iconic 1968 Dodge Hemi Dart and Plymouth Hemi Barracuda package muscle cars. And despite the fact these cars were sold as road legal, the modern ones are not allowed on the public roads.

And here it is nowadays – Mopar introduced its 2010 Dodge Challenger Drag Pak program. This is a non-street legal V8 powered, racing version of the Dodge Challenger. This racing muscle car has a 6.1L Hemi V8 and a 6-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic transmission. The base model is the 2010 Dodge Challenger SRT8 and finished in a Stock Eliminator configuration. It means that a lot of components have been replaced due to reduce weight.

The muscle car has some cool features as composite lift-off hood with functional scoop, Dodge Viper-style front seats, polycarbonate door windows, a lightweight cooling system, no power steering, bespoke lightweight front-brake assemblies and others.

The paint job is outstanding – retro Stone White paint and is eligible for NHRA Stock, Super Stock and Comp Eliminator drag racing. The price is about $39,999 and the muscle car will be available this summer.
