Mustang
Depot with the support of the fine sponsors below have come together to give you
The Rebellion in "Scarlet and Gray," a tribute to our founder’s alma mater “The UNLV Runnin'
Rebels.” The Rebels are celebrating their 20 year anniversary NCAA
Basketball Championship, at the time coached by Jerry Tarkanian,
aka the Shark.
Ford released
an all new Mustang in 2010. The body lines we smoothed out to provide a more
curvaceous look while still keeping with their retro Pony car.
Our
concept takes a leap forward and blends modern graphics with traditional muscle
car styling.
The
blackout front and rear gained influence from European cars. The sides were
influenced from our founders deep roots in the hot rod culture. The car makes use
of reversed or
negative tribal flames through an opposing color, in this case candy red. The
Rebellion is also significant in that it rebels against the
understated look. We used some blackout styling ques in the front and rear to
keep with the times, yet the sides are a clear detachment from the same old
understated look and feel. We've also integrated carbon fiber in both the
interior, exterior and engine compartment to give it a modern, race
feel. The
Rebellion Mustang put down some impressive numbers on the dyno producing 447hp
and 418tq at the rear wheels with 13lbs of boost. We used a prototype
Paxton High Output Novi 2200 Self Lubricating
Supercharger with a Vortech Air to Water cooler not traditionally offer together as
a kit. We integrated 39# injectors and the Diablo Preditor was professionally
tuned by NRP. So it has good power to go with the flashy exterior
design. The power was further enhanced by adding a
BBK twin 62mm throttle body,
Granatelli Pro Series Xtreme Coil Packs,
GT500 Fuel Pump
and
Granatelli fuel rails. Holding the
engine down is Prothane Billet Motor Mounts.
The exhaust is a complete
JBA 3" Stainless Steel Evol system
which included JBA shorty headers
and their
Mid H-Pipe with high flow cats,
. The
engine is dressed in APR Carbon Fiber
engine covers and valve covers are powder coated silver metalic. Also Trufiber
Carbon Fiber 1pc Radiator Cover. Scott Drake billet
caps and Moroso aluminum overflow tanks
and the Moroso TSump Oil Pan. The
2010 Street Scene front bumper has been
slightly modified. The side skirts
are from the 2005-09 Street Scene kit. The
rear splitter is also
from the new 2010 Mustang Street Scene Body Kit. We're also running
a Roush rear spoiler. The
APR carbon fiber mirrors
are originally for 2005-2009 Mustangs and require the Ford original internals from
that year group and then only some minor drilling to line up. The
Venom hood is new for the 2010 manufactured by Trufiber.
On the suspension, we used Eibach Pro Series
Coil Springs in the front and rear,
Eibach anti-roll kit front/rear,
Tokico Dspec Shocks/Struts,
Prothane Control Arm Bushings and the
Shelby Performance Rear Race Link.
We also made use of the Drake Muscle Car rear
end girdle, and their new billet
bump steer corrector kit. This new system from Shelby includes adjustable chromeoly trailing arms, an
adjustable third link, a third link bracket and a
pan hard rod and bracket. We used the
Granatelli Strut Brace as well. The car is
halted by massive Stainless Steel Brakes Force 10
Extreme 8 Piston Calipers with huge 14" Big Bite Rotors. The rears are matched
with the SSBC Force 10 Sport R1 calipers w/13" Big Bite rotors. The
interior has been touched up with Lloyd's lush GT floor mats,a triple
pillar gauge pod set with
Auto Meter Phantom gauges and
carbon fiber dash trim kit. Another
notable on the interior is the custom
Rebellion logo door sill plates
available
here. There are also
hints of Drake Muscle Car billet dress up items
inside and outside with their all new Billet
Antenna, again from Drake Muscle Cars. We finished
off originally with with color matched American Racing
Rogue wheels (discontinued) with Pirelli PZero Nero tires. The wheels were updated
to Lorenzo's for SEMA 2010. Driving the car is a dream with
a ton of power in reserve, nimble steering response, assured
corners with little to no roll. All of these performance enhancements we
attained while still retaining good general ride comfort. We chose an automatic transmission on the car for comfortable city
driving and the improved mileage. The launches are incredible with a slight roll
of the throttle, you can hit 100mph within 6 sec. The driving comfort is such
that you can pretty much take what comes along
beside you with a cup of coffee in your hand!
"We're
definitely not afraid to try different things with these cars. "We're true to what
simply looks good." "We hope you enjoy our efforts to give you something different
then the same old understated theme."
