Ford Mustang Mach-E

Ford has produced a special Mustang Mach-E model for the AirVenture Show in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. It is a special model dedicated to Women Airforce Service Pilots of the Second World War.

The exterior of the car is made in a combination of silver and black with contrasting yellow details. The stars of the US Air Force are also on the car. The interior of the car is the same as the previous one, with the addition of a specially designed armrest with yellow contrasting stripes and the number “38”, which represents the number of female pilots who died in the air force. Yellow stripes can also be seen on the steering wheel, door panels and dashboard.

The electric Mustang Mach-E is powered by two electric motors with 346 hp and 428 lb-ft (580 Nm) of torque. With all-wheel drive, the Mustang Mach-E reaches 62 mph in 4.8 seconds. The car is based on the Mustang Mach-E Premium, and the full battery provides a range of 270 miles (435 km).

Female pilots did not take part in air battles. As volunteers, they transported planes to air bases thus making their significant contribution in World War II.

1969 Ford Mustang with Mercedes AMG powertrain

Have you ever wondered, what would look like an American car with a Mercedes AMG engine? Check out the 1969 Ford Mustang, which has been brought back to life.

Anarchy Garage, a UK-based company, found a 1969 Mustang in very poor condition. The project cost £ 24,000 ($ 33,000), which includes the purchase of cars and AMG parts.

The classic exterior look has been retained, while the drivetrain and interior have undergone changes. A Mercedes dashboard, center console, steering wheel, transmission, as well as seats are installed.

Under the hood is a 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 721 hp and 885 lb-ft (1,200 Nm) of torque. It is the same engine used by the 2021 Mercedes E63 AMG. The car is equipped with a seven-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, and a limited slip differential.

The revived Mustang uses a set of 19-inch tires, and for a safe stop there are six-piston front brakes and four-piston rear brakes.
