Engine bay looks good.. sounds nice.. I just bought a 2001 roush stage 1 V6. Im swaping my 418w stoker into it from my 93 fox GT. Hopefully it will be done in about a month.. Keep up with the videos..
i did a 351w swap in mine and i only have battery and oil pressure to work. i put an after market temp gauge and the speedo, tach and gas gauge do not work. the car was already prept for a v8 swap so i dont know who wired the gas pump to work but im guessing they didnt hook up the gauge
welp, just made my decision on an engine swap. day one of being poor and saving money. Beautiful build man. Love how youre keeping it a sleeper look. I'd never expect that. :)
Great build! I own a 2000 V6 and was wondering do you know of any bolt ons I can do to improve performance. I already put on a cold air intake and changed out the stock ignition coil to a msd 48,000 volt. I plan on dual exhaust one day for sure. I'm on a real tight budget so any advice would be helpful. Thanks!
I'm remember when I owned my 03 stang it looked the same as yours in this video when I sold it 2 years ago .. Biggest mistake of my life I regret selling the pony now I'm looking to purchase another one same color same year if possible . Nice mustang keep it up - UTAH STANGS
wondering how they got around with the ecu? I have a 97 mustang gt, can't afford a new 4.6 mod motor, so I'm going 363 or 393w. I am currently running a e85 fuel system. I have a PA c4 transmission, 8.8 tabbed up with spool and 4.10. so, great platform to start with, just wanted to what I need to convert to one of my engine choices.
Great video. Got your self a new subscriber. You show your car without bragging and over you have respect. You also help others like mee! Other Chanel's just like to show off and be selfish not your. Thanks man.
Very Nice! This is a production 2 bolt block correct? I did go the 4.3 stroker turbo route and built my own turbo kit. Best pass to date with the car was 7.23 @ 101mph on 15psi letting off the throttle a little due to nerves lol. I don't blame you for the swap. A lot of work to make my v6 fast.
Sweet build man, the engine sounds lovely! Where did you get those rims from? I want the 18x9/18x10 staggered deepdish setup on my 2003 GT, but it is hard to find a set for a decent price with both the front and rear deep dish rims.
What kind of bell housing are you running? I just did the same swap and used a 164 tooth flywheel with the original V6 bell housing so I could run the 11” clutch and something is hitting and making a tapping noise. I had to shim the starter because it was too close but nothing on the starter is hitting.
Thanks! I have actually watched your videos many times! haha... I just didn't have the cash and the knowledge to do it all and it would have been a lot of money.. It is a 2 bolt. The block is actually a 1972 302 boss block. great slip times by the way!
Beautiful Mustang, thank you for posting the video of it. Looking into doing a swap myself like this in the feature. Subscribed, please keep making videos of your mustang!
Jared Hughes Seriously please do so brother! I`m planning on stroking my v6 to a 4.4 and turboing it. Was considering doing a 351 swap but I want to work on the 6 and have a badass v6.
I can't wait for your next video!! Great swap.that HP and sound.. I was going to do an engine swap myself but after I found out how much it would be to swap even for just a v8.. Im taking the easy way out and buying a 2012 gt ha. Let me know when you upload your new video, wish I can modify my car like that! Better than my plain bolt ons ha.
Great Job.i read all Your comments. they helped Greatly. We have a 99 v6 auto. dropping a 85 302 e303cam. We went with a new AOD with internal out of a newer trans supposed to handle 700 hp no Prob. dont have to worry about that its a ford we are hopeing for 340 hp. and a 2800 stall. Glad to here You didn't have to switch k member. Thanks again. Kevin Mahoney
Looks like your tire and wheel set up Ian nice doesn’t look like any of your wheels sitting out further then the other like most mustangs have a issue with, then again it’s not lowered
sweet, I have a 95 GT and a 2000 daily driver with almost 300,000 on the V6. Thinking a stroker or possibly a 390. Tell me your thought if you have time. thanks
Dude this car is fucking amazing!!! 98-04 are my favorite style of mustangs I wonder do regular gt owners be like ''that's a wanna be gt'' then you show the the gold under hood. anyways great video bro
Thanks man! I was going to buy a 2009 Super Snake and had the price negotiated and it boiled down to... I like my body style I have and the car was paid off. This new 5.0 that came up behind me once a few weeks ago..tried to get a little frisky...he backed off quick...hahaha
thanks everyone for all the great feedback. When the weather gets nice here in washington I will do some more videos, should be around August haha.. We are going to go from 3:73 gears to 4:10's and redo the exhaust with 3" pipes from the headers back with an X pipe and FM super 44's in June.
Love your build dude! I'm actually debating on doing an efi or carb 5.0 swap in my 97 v6. I was wondering since your car also has a v6/4.6 k member did you have to swap it out for a 94/95 or did the engine just bolt right to the stock k member? also did you keep your a/c? if so did the stock lines work or did you have to get a/c lines from a v8 car? thanks
Hi, nice car..! Mine is v6 too and that same color! Im about to do the same thing, but, im going to do all the work myself... I was wondering how you make all the factory gauges works... What harnness and computer dis you use and from what car you take everything..? Thanks!
Do you use an auto or stick for the build? I was thinking of doing this swap and using the stock 4r70w auto trans and getting a 28oz 163 tooth flywheel since the trans will interchange. That way my speedometer will work since it is electronic. A tubular K-member usually takes care of the header clearance issue. Only thing i am worried about is how to get it legal for inspection with a carb and no emission junk.
Very nice Mustang. Still, I'm puzzled. Is it practical to go back to push rods when '01's had overhead cams? Anything '96 and up is OBD2. In my state (NY) they plug the OBD2 port into a computer and send a report to our state capital that you passed emissions. How do you do that with push rods and a carburetor? Still, nice Mustang.
The hood not closing all the way would bother me personally. It would look a bit better with a very slight cowl so it can close with the carburetor, but it would take away the "aww man your car doesn't look tough" type thing :P but anyway your car sounds great and looks smooth great job on that
Amazing builld, hats off, u didn't talk about the trans in the video, what trans? Did u use the stock that came with the v6? And if so what did u do to handle the power?
the T5 transmission that comes with V6 in this model seems to be holding up just fine. We talked about replacing it and probably will... but so far so good.
Going to do another video tonight in my garage. Car just got tuned, adjusted and sounds really good. Just did rear seat delete and I ended up doing some plastidip about a month ago...
hi nice mustang. i was thinking of doing a v8 swap on my 01 v6. just wondering why no fuel injection set up for the price? 11k is alot of money. thanks
I wanted something different.. $11k is not really that much for a 500HP built from bare block, blue printed and balanced. Then swapped and installed..including exhaust and etc..
I haven't looked into the 347 stroker kit much but did you have it bored out? Which distributor are you running? Still running the stock electric fuel pump with a pressure regulator? Was the engine bought as is or did you get a junkyard donor and build that up? I love these old carburetor 302s a lot. Thinking about getting a 97-01 F150 and dropping one in since I despise the Ford Modular engines. As much as I love manuals I can't drive them at all not even to save my life so I'd be going with the E4OD with 4R100 parts.
Ratkill9000 The block is a 302 Boss thats been balanced and bored. Running a MSD Pro Billet distributor and coil. No, on the stock fuel pump. Removed factory pump from inside the tank and installed an outside electric pump. The block was bought bare and built from there.
What do you have to do with the computer and all when you swap with a v8 and carb setup? I'm very curious. I've wanted to do this but I have no idea what problems will arise.
Jared, very, very nice car. Awesome job! I have the exact same car and I'm in the process of doing the same swap. It's hard to find correct info on this, but since you've been through it I have one question.. Did you use the existing V6 K member that was originally in the car or did you change it? And if you changed it, what did you use? Thanks for your time. Again, a beautiful car..
Wish I had the money to mod my mustang I got a v6 99 78,000 miles for 2,400 .I'm starting with putting beast pypes exhaust ...but a whole engine swap would be loooooovvvvvvveeee...nice car brother...I'm inspired
Hey, I will be doing some new videos in the next few weeks. Had a fuel issue that we are taking care of. Found a new shop and we are doing some different tweeks to the car. Its going to be fun this summer......
Jared Hughes Question I have a v6 94 auto with a blown engine just sitting and a F 150 with a 5.4 trition just sitting and I want to put the 5.4 in the 94. Will the auto AOD-E (if built) can handle it?
+Jared Hughes no need to worry about the check engine light bud. when you do swaps like that its natural for it to be on because of the PC. you swapped it from FI to carburated so all the sensors that the PC normally reads on the FI setup is no longer there so it's gonna read a problem. at least I'm pretty sure that is the reason why. Great build though.
Nice build man I want to do the sane thing but for a 2010 v6 can you tell me what you had to change ? I know transmission gears engine and many more but idk exactly what ? If you have a list let me know Thanks.
so let me get this straight there is no such thing as a v6 3.8 L GT right ? my mom just baught a 2001 v6 mustang and when she brought it home i looked at back there is a GT badge on back of it im thinkin the previous owner just bought the badge and stuck it on the car to make it look cool im guessing lol i think ist kinda lame maybe i should get it tookin off the car lol
Авто/Мото
Your Mustang is awesome!! You would never know what it is till the key turns. Super sleeper, i love it!
Hey thanks!!
Well done. Sounds great man. This is what a mustang should sound like. Love this!
how much did they charge u for this man, its fkkn sick bro
absolutely cannot beat the sound that carburetor/old school motors make
please tell me what parts were required like motor mounts, transmission, wiring
Very nice. Love the deep dish on all 4 wheels. Gonna get same wheel configuration for my black mustang. Thanks for inspiration.
Engine bay looks good.. sounds nice.. I just bought a 2001 roush stage 1 V6. Im swaping my 418w stoker into it from my 93 fox GT. Hopefully it will be done in about a month.. Keep up with the videos..
i did a 351w swap in mine and i only have battery and oil pressure to work. i put an after market temp gauge and the speedo, tach and gas gauge do not work. the car was already prept for a v8 swap so i dont know who wired the gas pump to work but im guessing they didnt hook up the gauge
welp, just made my decision on an engine swap. day one of being poor and saving money. Beautiful build man. Love how youre keeping it a sleeper look. I'd never expect that. :)
thanks! Ya, it surprises everyone for sure... :)
man that thing sounds good bro i have a 04 4.6L v8 your car sounds like mine 👌👌👌👌
Great build! I own a 2000 V6 and was wondering do you know of any bolt ons I can do to improve performance. I already put on a cold air intake and changed out the stock ignition coil to a msd 48,000 volt. I plan on dual exhaust one day for sure. I'm on a real tight budget so any advice would be helpful. Thanks!
Nice!! I bought a 2000 V6 last week and I really want to do an swap and this is what I’m looking for, now just gotta find someone to do it lol
nice mustang with that motor did u have to use the wireing harness i have a 01 im gonna build
dude your car is bad ass.I love the engine swap i own a 2001 mustang myself and I'm looking in to doing this style of swap my self.
Do it. My only issue we have had is to much fuel.. we are working on it now.
Looks and sounds amazing! How much did the motor/supporting parts and engine mounts cost roughly? Labor costs set aside.
Hey Jared nice car I have one just like that but still stock I really like ur wheels what brand are the rims thanks.
I have that same Mustang. Thanks for the info on a swap.
I'm remember when I owned my 03 stang it looked the same as yours in this video when I sold it 2 years ago .. Biggest mistake of my life I regret selling the pony now I'm looking to purchase another one same color same year if possible . Nice mustang keep it up - UTAH STANGS
+Alan Ramirez thanks my man... !
Nice vid boss! Beautiful engine and sound!
Jeff Davis thanks!
wondering how they got around with the ecu? I have a 97 mustang gt, can't afford a new 4.6 mod motor, so I'm going 363 or 393w. I am currently running a e85 fuel system. I have a PA c4 transmission, 8.8 tabbed up with spool and 4.10.
so, great platform to start with, just wanted to what I need to convert to one of my engine choices.
Thats good power for the weight of the car, should run pretty good aslong as it will hook. So how much does his 347ci engines cost?
That's pretty good and what headers and exhaust did you use or could you use regular one for the v6
Great video. Got your self a new subscriber. You show your car without bragging and over you have respect. You also help others like mee! Other Chanel's just like to show off and be selfish not your. Thanks man.
Thanks bro. Its a fun project for sure..
Very Nice! This is a production 2 bolt block correct? I did go the 4.3 stroker turbo route and built my own turbo kit. Best pass to date with the car was 7.23 @ 101mph on 15psi letting off the throttle a little due to nerves lol. I don't blame you for the swap. A lot of work to make my v6 fast.
awesome stang man. love the motor swap. are you thinking about a efi conversion?
What kind of headers did you use for swap ? Like from a 90 GT or 95 GT or 2004 GT. I have a 2004 v6 going to do swap just need to get headers.
Sweet build man, the engine sounds lovely! Where did you get those rims from? I want the 18x9/18x10 staggered deepdish setup on my 2003 GT, but it is hard to find a set for a decent price with both the front and rear deep dish rims.
Local wheel shop and now I forgot the name of them hahaha...my car is up on blocks for the fall and winter.
What kind of bell housing are you running? I just did the same swap and used a 164 tooth flywheel with the original V6 bell housing so I could run the 11” clutch and something is hitting and making a tapping noise. I had to shim the starter because it was too close but nothing on the starter is hitting.
Wat kit of engine mounts did they use
i would absolutely do a build exactly like this! Bad ass mustang. I love it
thanks!
Inspiring ! I have a Mustang of my own and was suggesting an engine swap. And also why did you not like the halo headlights ?
awesome, what i wantin in my 00, hard to find a person to help do it
Thanks! I have actually watched your videos many times! haha... I just didn't have the cash and the knowledge to do it all and it would have been a lot of money.. It is a 2 bolt. The block is actually a 1972 302 boss block. great slip times by the way!
This Pony is clean, I love it
+Devin Ziegler thanks!
Wow dude that's a very nice project. I don't think anyone would expect that Mustang to start up like that. Nice job.
it turns heads every time I start... mostly people are confused at first where its coming from... they looking for an old school car...
Awesome carrrrrrr, I love it, thank you for video.
+Jared Hughes thank you for not putting svt badges on your car.
+Emil Madsen Right!! hahahahaha
I was curious what Bell housing & clutch you used if you used the factory transmission. Thanks!
WHAT ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION DOES THE ENGINE BOLT UP TO THE EXISTING TRANSMISSION?
"If you do have Halo lights....... thats okay" hahaha
:-)
very nice! looking to put a 347 Stroker into a 1972 Mavrick
Beautiful Mustang, thank you for posting the video of it. Looking into doing a swap myself like this in the feature. Subscribed, please keep making videos of your mustang!
+Alex Green I sure will, thanks!
Jared Hughes Seriously please do so brother! I`m planning on stroking my v6 to a 4.4 and turboing it. Was considering doing a 351 swap but I want to work on the 6 and have a badass v6.
I’m in love with ur car man !
I can't wait for your next video!! Great swap.that HP and sound.. I was going to do an engine swap myself but after I found out how much it would be to swap even for just a v8.. Im taking the easy way out and buying a 2012 gt ha. Let me know when you upload your new video, wish I can modify my car like that! Better than my plain bolt ons ha.
Hey thanks! I was going to buy a 2009 Super Snake and after costing it out... decided to have this build instead. :)
Great Job.i read all Your comments. they helped Greatly. We have a 99 v6 auto. dropping a 85 302 e303cam. We went with a new AOD with internal out of a newer trans supposed to handle 700 hp no Prob. dont have to worry about that its a ford we are hopeing for 340 hp. and a 2800 stall. Glad to here You didn't have to switch k member. Thanks again. Kevin Mahoney
Sounds great! I am having some fuel issues with vapor locking but we are fixing them. cant wait to see some vids on your stang!
Thanks
did u have to change k member and what trans u have
What all did u do to make it fit I want to put it my beat up v6 to make a sleeper
Looks like your tire and wheel set up Ian nice doesn’t look like any of your wheels sitting out further then the other like most mustangs have a issue with, then again it’s not lowered
i have 02 mustang 3.8 wanting put a bigger motor whats size do think i want more power then gt n what will take do this to my mustang
can you tell me what brand wheels & product name you have it looks like anthracite
American Racing ?
sick car! im looking to do a coyote swap on mine but adding everything up comes up to about 16k or more 10.5 sounds better lol
Have a 1973 351 cobra jet engine @ 2000 mustang convertible..... What you think
did you use the original k-member? or did you swap a 94-95 or get a tubular kmember?
sweet, I have a 95 GT and a 2000 daily driver with almost 300,000 on the V6. Thinking a stroker or possibly a 390. Tell me your thought if you have time. thanks
Is that the Edelbrock E-Street TB? What cam did you go with, what heads?
Hey did you use a 8th vin block t or d? Was it the cobra block or standard 5.0 block?
What's the bare build setup to get it on the road approx cost?
Mann, this is a sleeper hahaha. NICE!
Motor mounts did you use?
I have my first 01 base coupe and man. I'm so jealous 😭😭. I have a automatic at that. So. Man. You definitely have a cool car.
Did you use the stock v6 kmember/engine cradle when you did this?
You replace your trans to handle the new torque?
what motor mounts did you use for the swap?
Dude this car is fucking amazing!!! 98-04 are my favorite style of mustangs I wonder do regular gt owners be like ''that's a wanna be gt'' then you show the the gold under hood. anyways great video bro
Thanks man! I was going to buy a 2009 Super Snake and had the price negotiated and it boiled down to... I like my body style I have and the car was paid off. This new 5.0 that came up behind me once a few weeks ago..tried to get a little frisky...he backed off quick...hahaha
thanks everyone for all the great feedback. When the weather gets nice here in washington I will do some more videos, should be around August haha.. We are going to go from 3:73 gears to 4:10's and redo the exhaust with 3" pipes from the headers back with an X pipe and FM super 44's in June.
how much did this swap cost? I was looking into it or either the 5.4 swap or just building the 6 thats in it now
Jasmine Raynor swap with build and 3" exhaust was around $12,000
GT500supersnake 2009 I would love that but the block is already at max.
I'm thinking about doing the same thing but with a 351w
Love your build dude! I'm actually debating on doing an efi or carb 5.0 swap in my 97 v6. I was wondering since your car also has a v6/4.6 k member did you have to swap it out for a 94/95 or did the engine just bolt right to the stock k member? also did you keep your a/c? if so did the stock lines work or did you have to get a/c lines from a v8 car? thanks
Hi, nice car..! Mine is v6 too and that same color! Im about to do the same thing, but, im going to do all the work myself... I was wondering how you make all the factory gauges works... What harnness and computer dis you use and from what car you take everything..? Thanks!
They wired right up except for the tach.
Nice stang! Im in Seattle area, Would be fun to do a mustang drive! Here is a short burn out in my 01 Gt!
they inspect cars in Washington? will have a hell of a time getting this thru dmv on the east coast, sound great
+Sal Cott In some areas not in the county I live.
Man that shit was nice man 🙌🏽 do bad I way in cali need that hookup
I love it brother! It gives me chills just listening to it! Great job.
+Travis Bugg thanks!
Do you use an auto or stick for the build? I was thinking of doing this swap and using the stock 4r70w auto trans and getting a 28oz 163 tooth flywheel since the trans will interchange. That way my speedometer will work since it is electronic. A tubular K-member usually takes care of the header clearance issue. Only thing i am worried about is how to get it legal for inspection with a carb and no emission junk.
Car is a stick. We don't have emissions where we live.
how much was the whole swap cause i would love to do this to my 03 v6 mustang
I am into right now at $13,000 but thats me adding stuff here and there.
What's the cost to do a swap not the motor build cost.
I'm about to put a 347 stroker in my car with a 72mm Turbo. SO READY!!!
cant wait to see that!
Very nice Mustang. Still, I'm puzzled. Is it practical to go back to push rods when '01's had overhead cams? Anything '96 and up is OBD2. In my state (NY) they plug the OBD2 port into a computer and send a report to our state capital that you passed emissions. How do you do that with push rods and a carburetor? Still, nice Mustang.
we don't have emissions in our county.. :-)
what all u have to replace for swap
The hood not closing all the way would bother me personally. It would look a bit better with a very slight cowl so it can close with the carburetor, but it would take away the "aww man your car doesn't look tough" type thing :P but anyway your car sounds great and looks smooth great job on that
The hood does close all the way. I had it opened to help when I was filming.
This looks great just wondering if you could tell me about how much overall for engine and installation
The whole job was $10,500 that was build, exhaust, swap...
Amazing builld, hats off, u didn't talk about the trans in the video, what trans? Did u use the stock that came with the v6? And if so what did u do to handle the power?
the T5 transmission that comes with V6 in this model seems to be holding up just fine. We talked about replacing it and probably will... but so far so good.
Going to do another video tonight in my garage. Car just got tuned, adjusted and sounds really good. Just did rear seat delete and I ended up doing some plastidip about a month ago...
haha..ya, they pretty much back off pretty quick...
i have a huge question since im trying to put a 347 in a 2003 GT. What headers are you using. I cant find a good set of 1 3/4's anywhere
the headers are off of a '98 302....
Thanks. What about the mounts for the power steering? Stock from the original V6?
Original out of the 6....
I don't know what you did under that hood... But it's beautiful. What happened to your cool air intake?
thanks!
Nice car man really nice, ill be doing a 393 in a new edge, so you used the stock v6 K Member, I would guess you used a foxbody oil pain as well?
Its a Canton oil pan.
hi nice mustang. i was thinking of doing a v8 swap on my 01 v6. just wondering why no fuel injection set up for the price? 11k is alot of money. thanks
I wanted something different.. $11k is not really that much for a 500HP built from bare block, blue printed and balanced. Then swapped and installed..including exhaust and etc..
I enjoyed your clip.
thanks!
Im just curious, did you do an engine swap from having a V6 in it to aV8 or another V6?
V6 to V8
What kind of motor mounts
I haven't looked into the 347 stroker kit much but did you have it bored out? Which distributor are you running? Still running the stock electric fuel pump with a pressure regulator? Was the engine bought as is or did you get a junkyard donor and build that up? I love these old carburetor 302s a lot. Thinking about getting a 97-01 F150 and dropping one in since I despise the Ford Modular engines. As much as I love manuals I can't drive them at all not even to save my life so I'd be going with the E4OD with 4R100 parts.
Ratkill9000 The block is a 302 Boss thats been balanced and bored. Running a MSD Pro Billet distributor and coil. No, on the stock fuel pump. Removed factory pump from inside the tank and installed an outside electric pump. The block was bought bare and built from there.
can automatic be done the same?
did you have to change your k member? how did you get your odometer to reset and read right? thanks!
938Hondaboy Didnt have to change k member. Didnt reset it. :-)
What do you have to do with the computer and all when you swap with a v8 and carb setup? I'm very curious. I've wanted to do this but I have no idea what problems will arise.
They whole car is basically an old school muscle car as far as the engine and fuel system goes.
this stang is fuckin badass I love car engines and this is just pure hp and badassery
+lucian kristov thanks! The Vette on highway last night discovered that truth... ;-)
Jared, very, very nice car. Awesome job! I have the exact same car and I'm in the process of doing the same swap. It's hard to find correct info on this, but since you've been through it I have one question.. Did you use the existing V6 K member that was originally in the car or did you change it? And if you changed it, what did you use? Thanks for your time. Again, a beautiful car..
Hey thanks! We used the existing V6 K member. Thanks again!
Wish I had the money to mod my mustang I got a v6 99 78,000 miles for 2,400 .I'm starting with putting beast pypes exhaust ...but a whole engine swap would be loooooovvvvvvveeee...nice car brother...I'm inspired
thanks!
What kind of fuel mileage do you get?
Sweet build man
thanks!
Hey, I will be doing some new videos in the next few weeks. Had a fuel issue that we are taking care of. Found a new shop and we are doing some different tweeks to the car. Its going to be fun this summer......
So Does It Still Have The Automatic Transmission?
Its a manual.. never been an auto.
Jared Hughes Question I have a v6 94 auto with a blown engine just sitting and a F 150 with a 5.4 trition just sitting and I want to put the 5.4 in the 94. Will the auto AOD-E (if built) can handle it?
+Jared Hughes no need to worry about the check engine light bud. when you do swaps like that its natural for it to be on because of the PC. you swapped it from FI to carburated so all the sensors that the PC normally reads on the FI setup is no longer there so it's gonna read a problem. at least I'm pretty sure that is the reason why. Great build though.
+Jared Hughes so it's the stock T-5?
How much horse power are you making?
Nice build man
I want to do the sane thing but for a 2010 v6 can you tell me what you had to change ?
I know transmission gears engine and many more but idk exactly what ? If you have a list let me know
Thanks.
For '10 I am not sure.
Gears: 3.73 but I am going to 4.10's this spring.
Rear End: 8.8
Transmission is stock.
so let me get this straight there is no such thing as a v6 3.8 L GT right ? my mom just baught a 2001 v6 mustang and when she brought it home i looked at back there is a GT badge on back of it im thinkin the previous owner just bought the badge and stuck it on the car to make it look cool im guessing lol i think ist kinda lame maybe i should get it tookin off the car lol
