Shelby Meets Crown Vic: Cleetus’s “Project Neighbor” Crown Victoria Is A Monster!


Shelby Meets Crown Vic: Cleetus’s “Project Neighbor” Crown Victoria Is A Monster!

Cleetus has been working on “Project Neighbor”, a hybrid of a Ford Police Interceptor and what was left of a Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 that had been balled up pretty badly. Honestly…we’re kind of surprised that nobody thought of it before…the supercharged 5.4L mill from the Shelby, backed up to a six-speed, stuffed in the last body-on-frame big-boy sedan that was on the market brings a bit of a smile to our faces. Oh, who are we kidding…we are beyond belief that there is a Crown Vic that rips as hard as this one does. There’s a lot of Cleetus-isms going on here, but there’s also a ton of tire smoke from a Panther. We’d love to know what this thing drives like, and we can’t wait to see it buttoned up and finished already. Any car that packs four racing seats, an air-to-water intercooler and makes tire smoke like an Australian who is hell bent on getting kicked out of an event for life just does it for us, what can we say?

    Cleetus (Garrett) is one of coolest young Youtube dudes out there. Funny, down to earth, no profanity or vulgar crap just to try to get more views, does his own work and can REALLY drive a stick. As an older guy I can’t stand most of the a.. holes on You Tube but I look forward to (most) of his shows. I really thought he was over his head when he started this drivetrain swap but he made it work!

    Just picked up a 09 Crown Vic at an auction over the weekend. Want to add more power but that is a little beyond my budget!

    See Ford look what you miss out!

    There is a lot of fluff in his videos and There alot of things he says I don’t want my 4 year old saying. I am not saying cut out the burn outs and stunt driving but there is a lot of wasted band width that i could do with out. Get to the point man!

    Oh I would love to have a shelby / 6 speed in my towncar!
