Petty's Garage Launches The Richard Petty Signature Series Mustang

Loyal fans of the King, Richard Petty, know his championship heritage isn’t limited to Chrysler products. Back in the ‘60s the King was racing and winning with Fords, and the NASCAR team he leads today races under the Blue Oval exclusively. So it’s only natural that Petty’s Garage has expanded its lineup of high-performance street machines, which already features the Signature Series Dodge Challenger and Superbird, to include a hot new Ford Mustang as well.

The Richard Petty Signature Series Mustang is a limited edition build powered by a supercharged 624-hp, 5.0L V8 engine package factory-engineered by Ford Racing and coupled to a 6-speed manual gearbox. Hardcore driveline upgrades and a brake package specially engineered by StopTech help to harness the extreme power and put it to the ground, while a handling package developed by Petty’s Garage and Pedders Suspension elevates the Mustang GT’s road manners to world-class status. Elegant Forgeline 3-piece wheels and ExtremeContact™ DW Continental Tires cap off the mechanical upgrades performed by the legendary race shop down in Level Cross, North Carolina.

In the appearance department, the Signature Series Mustang features a special rear spoiler, Ford Racing front and rear fascias, and unique Petty’s Garage badging. Other appointments include custom leather seats spec’d out by the King himself, a short-throw racing shifter, and much, much more. The 50 serialized cars will each come standard with a Petty graphics package designed to complement any stock Mustang exterior color. Petty Blue exterior paint and special graphics featuring the King’s iconic signature on both quarter panels are available options. The retail price for the installed package is $33,500 (plus your stock 2011-2012 Mustang GT) and is offered through Petty’s Garage.
