1979 Mustang Indy Pace Car Burnout

[hownychea]

my dad had this exact body mustang, except his was a v6.he sold it when he started the family. You are lucky, one day i'm gonna buy one just like this for him again.

79 huh i like it i really really like it that font end is different form the other 79 why is that is it stock?

[starsandbarsforever]

it is nice to see that these cars are still out there and not all fucked up in the junk yard. i have an 83 that has been sitting in my garage for a few years now. i have owned it for 21 years. can not afford to do anything with it now. my girls come first. but i am going to bring it out this summer because i deserve it.

[CrazyTacky]

Love it... hope you're still the owner of this fine vehicle :D

Fuckin sick 79 Pace! Video delivers

[gunforme]

They don't makem like that anymore.

[MrTransAm1979]

nice burnout but one of the worst looking model of mustangs :)

[christo930]

An old friend of mine used to be able to brake torque his 79 mustang indy pace car (302) with a stick shift. It looks like this one is a stick too, but I can't quite see. Is it?

[av3t05]

New tires with u. nice burnout

[hellya2011]

HOLY SHIT!!! That is a F*cking badass car!!! Is this a V8 or v6 engine???

[T0A5T3RH3AD]

nice car, but i prefer the stock rims on these specific cars.....aftermarkets just don't look right....

[suprbird]

someday i want an 82 mustang...your 79 is gorgeous

[jfksad]

i got a pace car and thats what im gonna do once i graduate highschool

[AUTOBOT84]

1985 was a split year for slapper bars and quad shock set up. My 85 has quad shock from the factory they had problems with slapper bars breaking.

[snakebitten97]

1985 never had slapper bars the quad shocks came out in 84

[TheTrewoga]

woooooooooo

[chaoticXdisaster]

well 79-85 came with slapper bars.they got rid of slapper bars when they went to the 8.8 set up..i know i had to have a 7.5 unit and it had the slapper bar.not i have to get some lift bars and put on mine..

[ProjectFairmont]

Actually the slappers came out in '82 (HO 5.0) and were replaced by the better handling (supposedly) quad shocks in '85

[mikanjuju00]

how did you manage to keep the rear end from hopping all over the place? traction bars? adjustable lower control arms? I have a 79 with a beefy 302 in it and I cant keep the rear end planted!

[colonialmotion]

yea i have a pace car too and when i burnout it jumps around! i hate that! what do i need to do to fix it?? its a 4banger turbo and im going to put a rear end out of a 91gt with locktrac... hopefully that will fix it..

[octavienser]

the cops will get this video.you lousy son of a bitch

[Artyfil]

and what are they gonna do with it?

[MattSakai]

[miller999965]

you just gave me an idea of what to do whenever i get mine except do it on christmas day

[8850gt]

Hold on to that forever! Looks bad-ass,sounds wicked and I'm sure it is a blast to drive. Live It Up!

[2koo4skhool]

nice 5.0 man i just got a 1979 mustang 5.0 pace car its pretty nice but there really gutless but still nice. i gto it from my uncle for Graduation

[Fordguy02]

cool car, i'm thinking about buying a 1979 mustang for 500 if the people agree to the offer. it's a base 4 cylinder but i'd like to get a 302 and put a pace car front end on it.

[Thrillcekr]

I had one of these babies back when I was a teenager. I miss that car so much.  Thanks for sharing.

[ConnerRoad]

Thanks for all of the great comments. Keep'em coming.

[deciblez]

Damn thats nice, i wish my pace car sounded that nice and drove like that!

[richerstanger]

my dad had a 79' stang 302 and he wishes he still had it today.hard to find .if i had my choice of a fox body it be a 79' or an 89'.

[whipthegoat]

what kind of flowmaster? i have the indy pace truck with series 40's but they're too quiet

[ConnerRoad]

Great question. I do not recall the series number but do know that they are a 2-chamber configuration.
