In this video I review Tom's 1990 Notchback Mustang, also known as the War Admiral, named after a Triple Crown winning racehorse.
This was originally a wild strawberry car, but has since been painted magnetic gray metallic.
Motor is a 363 Dart SHP block with AFR 195cc renegade heads and a 76mm On3 Turbo. 4 tunes are available thanks to a Holley Terminator X ECU. Horsepower ranges from 650whp to 950+whp depending on fuel and tune. Transmission is a Tremec TKX, rear end is an 8.8 with 3.55 gears.
Be sure to follow Tom on Instagram: @war.admiral.363

Amazing. Amazing car. It's damn near perfection. Amazing owner too. Knows every little thing about his car and the names of everyone that helped make it what it is today. This guy cherishes this car.

@war.admiral.3639 Год назад

Yes sir I do !!

His dad would be proud for sure. That’s an amazing car and inspirational story.

Agreed! Thank you for watching and commenting.

This is probably my favorite notchback, EVER.

On3 turbos get the job done if you’re on a budget !!! Never underestimate a good setup.

Great job, Thank you for taking the time out of a very long and hot weekend to do this with me. Very much appreciated.

Thank you for letting me drive the War Admiral! I had a blast and it was definitely the highlight of my trip!

Videos like this make it all worth it for you I'm sure Tom. Love War Admiral.

@@BrotherTom I'm not even going to ask him if I can drive it. LOL. I'd be too afraid I'd break something even though I know it's as solid as can be.

Awesome build and back story to go with it which makes it even more special. I lost my Dad to stage 4 and you're right, you will forever never stop missing him. Love how your Dad's best friend came through for you.

Hands down one of my favorite coupes out there

@justinlonghofer Год назад

This guy did it right and he’s right on so many levels as far as old tech and new tech blending for all the right reasons. I’m a family man and have kids so he’s right as far as hitting a button to tone it down for a family cruise vs hit the go-fast button to eat some rice

@VidTubeWatch Год назад

Such a great video. I remember seeing this car for the first time on GearHead704's channel. Tom even commented me back with much appreciation when I complimented War Admiral and the story. Such a nice guy and an awesome car. I'm glad he's getting the love he and the car deserve. The back story is wonderful. I'm glad War Admiral Tom and his daughter enjoy this car together.

I am old school FOX man myself. I actually had the opportunity to be the main Ford technician during 1988,89,90,91 Era ... I was the only technician to PDI when they arrived at the dealership. I know FOX body very very very well. I love this car and what he has done. Five star on his unique design. Great Job!!!

@spyderlyf3 Год назад

I had this idea of a Foxbody in my head and was thinking of build options...didn't do a search and this video pops up..algorithum is in my head lol..unbelieveably perfect build...

@petrolhead8851 Год назад

Wow, sad but really great story, I felt his pain because I’ve lost a few very close family members and friends, and that’s a feeling that’ll never go away but we learn to live with. Anyways, bad ass foxbody, love the set up, the whole car is well executed, so many cool details from the exhaust set up, to the engine set up, to the interior, down to the wheel, tire, suspension, and brake set up. This car is nuts and super clean!!! I’m sorry for your loss Tom, hope you stay strong minded and things go well for you, and thank you for showing us your bad ass foxbody !!! You did a bad ass job, I’m sure your dads jaw would have dropped looking at this car.

@war.admiral.3639 Год назад

This is definitely the cleanest car ive seen in my life. Great job with all if your choices. This car reminds me of my mustang that i crashed into a pole and almost died and an in a wheelchair from. If i could still drive this car i would have one exactly like this! Thank you for sharing

@Rainmanthereal 3 месяца назад

Jesus Christ! God bless you Tom. This is a dream built for me, the car looks diabolical and so clean, it's a scary sleeper ready to slay down JDM Turbo cars on the highway. The custom interior job is jaw dropping, I've almost screamed like an angry 6yo girls when the door opened. To sum it up, you just put the interior of a Modern Italian Supercar, combined with a crazy demonic top end turbo 6.0L V8, and stashed it over a bullet proof racing grade suspension setup. As well as the incredible paint job and the wheels/brake setup. Well I guess it's a simple built for anyone that has a 100K $ to blow, but you've really manage to build your dream car, and at the same time, you've honored your father in a very inspiring way. That exhaust setup is litterally Porno for car guys! Thanks Tom! WOW!!!

@danpeoples1000 Год назад

This might be the nicest Fox body I've ever seen, dear gawd, what a beautiful car! I owned and loved an 89 Black notch 5.0-5speed car, for about 11 years. I hope to one day find another 89 notch to restore and love all over again. The 87-93 Fox bodies will always have a special place in my memory, they were my 57 Chevy growing up.

@BrotherTom Год назад

Every time I get into my Fox I feel like it's 1989 again. These cars are time machines!

@XtremeGTI Год назад

This is the same mentality I have when building my car. Modern meets classic. I love everything about this car. It's so well thought out. Everything single part has been thought about.

@soyounoat Год назад

The car is a beauty, the build is impressive, and you did it your own unique way. The effort and time you put into it gives honor and respect to your father, and also to his best friend Bob. Also, your story shows that the hardest of circumstances can be overcome with dedication to a worthwhile goal, and is an inspiration to countless other people. And it's lots of fun to go fast in a Foxbody!

@timothybuzzard8480 Год назад

Damn man now that's what a fox body should be. You built what I've had in my head forever and was thinking about doing mine just like it. Hell yeah bro that's a badass fox! 💯👍

@Chris-Rife 11 месяцев назад

I understand his struggle. I was close to my grandparents(raised me). They died before I felt like I became a man... they didn't get to see my house and my kids etc. so I understand they were my rock. Touching story but yeah I get it 100%. Bad ass car either way he's done amazing job.

So sick, I wanna build a Fox body. After having a terminator I got the mustang bug and always wanted to do one, just like this too. Car is perfect

@Jangocat Год назад

Those Fox bodies brought back muscle cars. They were legit 13 second 1/4 mile cars in the 80's after the 70's smog mobiles. I thought they were ugly at the time but the body style has grown on me over the years.

Tom is the man and I love this Mustang and the design how it is functional but also a beast. It could actually be a sleeper. Some car pulls up on you like a CTS and thinks it's just a foxbody with pipes and then he says seeya lata aligator! Great video thanks for sharing.
