Rare or fake?

[Dr. Matt]

Came across a Mustang I am not familiar with and hopefully some of you can tell me if it’s worth saving from the crusher. It is a 1995, supposedly limited production supercharged V6. Not sure what it is

[KevinK]

Sticker says 1995.

No way, that's a supercharger and ic from a supercoupe that comes with the 3.8 supercharged from factory. It's a conversion. I mean v6 cobra R? That says it all lol

vin came back as a base 6 cyl mustang . you said a 2005 mustang, but looking at the dash and fenders, its 100% a sn95 mustang

[Dr. Matt]

Ooops, I MEANT 1995, lol. I couldn't find any info on a '95 supercharged V-6, and the dash badge looks like something made at a fair, not by Ford. Just wasn't sure it wasn't some rare find I had never heard of.

Currently doesn't run. The kid who owns it doesn't know anything other than it doesn't run either. Suposedly the guy he bought it from was a "mechanic" who sold him a non running car, soooo.....

That’s the exact setup I want for our 86.

Curious if it ever ran in this configuration, or if the kid got sold an incomplete project.

Supposedly it ran at one time. Not really sure. His dad is a friend of mine and the kid who owns it asked me to come look at it and tell him what I thought it might be worth. I’ll ask some more questions tomorrow. He actually thought it was a super rare 1/300 special edition. I didn’t think so, but figured I’d get confirmation from you guys.

I agree. Even the steering wheel was swapped. (SC = SuperCoupe)

Engine intake parts coated red with K/N.
Braided brake booster hose.
Needs windshield, wiper arms, hood. WUpWT?
Has Cobra floor mat.
All that work, and then a Walmart battery and cable ends. Prob why it don't run.

Interesting lighter weight app for a SC engine.

Lots of people have talked about doing the SuperCoupe engine swap into a mustang but this is the first one that I have seen that looked close to being finished. Time to start looking into it and get it running. That should be a fun car to drive to work,....but, probably not a good car for a teenagers first car.


I bought a SuperCoupe engine to put into my '65 MGB project car. At 2,000 lbs w/ drivetrain it should have an outstanding power to weight ratio,....if it ever happens.

I've seen a couple swaps like this, never anything that interesting. Kinda slow and usually the donor is already abused .

[Dr. Matt]

Well supposedly it was running & driving. Also supposed to have a built long block, ported aluminum heads, the headers look like an aftermarket shorty, and supposedly has pulley to "raise boost" according to paperwork the kid has with the car. I gave him contact info for a buddy I race with who has 3 Supercoups, maybe he can get it running. I have a feeling he'll be $5k into a car worth 2-3 really quickly.

I sold a 85 Mustang GT to a friend years ago, he did the supercharged V6 engine from a Super Coupe TBird, along with a 5 speed , and also installed a IRS from a Cobra Mustang. It looks pretty nice, and he says it runs great, but it seems like an awful lot of work, for performance that a 302 is easily capable of .
