The time has come for the custom widebody Mustang from Galpin Auto Sports (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/12/29/galpin-widebody-mustang-ready-for-its-charity-auction-at-barrett/) to find a new owner. Built by Galpin (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/galpin+auto+sports/) for industrial company SPX, this specially built Mustang (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/mustang/) features a hand-built body that widens the car by an incredible nine inches highlighted by PPG Candy Apple Red paint. Under the hood is a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 producing over 700 horsepower, and it has also been fitted with forged three-piece wheels, a custom suede interior, upgraded exhaust system and more.
Whether it was the look and sound of the car or whether bidders were simply feeling generous, this attention-grabbing pony car nabbed a final bid of $160,000, all of which will be donated to benefit the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. You can see our live photos above, or read more about the car after the jump (http://www.mnfords.com/2012/01/20/barrett-jackson-2012-galpin-widebody-mustang-nets-160-000-for/#continued).Continue reading Barrett-Jackson 2012: Galpin Widebody Mustang nets $160,000 for charity (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/01/20/barrett-jackson-2012-galpin-widebody-mustang-nets-160-000-for/)
