When Carl Ogren from Chris Alston’s Chassisworks, on of our great BangShift sponsors, sent me an email yesterday titled “Awful Mustang”, he was being kind. WOW This thing fell out of the top of the tallest ugly tree on earth and hit every single branch on the way down. At the bottom of said tree was a giant trampoline that launched it back up through every branch on the tree and then it fell back to earth on the other side after hitting them all for a third time. WOW WOW WOW.
Okay, okay, we know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and that someone clearly spent considerable time and effort in creating this “Mustang”. And from the limited photos, we are comfortable saying that they did a “good job” creating whatever it is you call this. After all, the ad states that everything but the roof and door skins are hand fabricated steel. Not fiberglass. But, it certainly is NOT what Ford’s design team envisioned when designing the 2007 Mustang. Am I wrong is saying it’s the Ugliest Mustang in the World? If I’m wrong is it because there is one that is uglier that I am just unaware of, or is it that you can’t really call this one a Mustang anymore?
It does have a Vortech Supercharger on it, so that’s cool. Of course the electric Lambo doors totally take away any coolness you get from the extra horsepower.
The photo above actually scares me. You know how you mess with someone by sticking your face uncomfortably close to theirs while they are sleeping and then poke them to wake them up. Yeah, looking at this photo made me jump like that. The headlights are from a Lotus Elise, a car I’m sure they wished they still lived on, but the grill opening looks like it is ready for the fanciest big mouth Bass lure you can find.
Nothing says high performance and style like a wing out back like this one. It’s all about the aero baby. The Cadillac tail lights bring a touch of class that otherwise might be missing out back. And please tell me those are backup sensors on the bottom since you can no longer see what’s behind you due to the wing and fins. As if a late model Mustang needed help in the blind spot department.
Are you wondering what the license plate means? We were too. Not sure if it’s supposed to be what we researched, but according to what we could find, muia is a Romanian Verb that means to wet, moisten, douse, or soak. It can also mean to soften, or to dip in a liquid to make soft.
I’m not sure about you, but this car most certainly does not get me wet. On while I normally am a huge fan of dipping cookies in milk, I’ll have to pass after looking at this thing for fear of loosing my cookies. Isn’t there some rule about not looking at awful cars for at least 30 minutes after eating?
Well, the interior at least was left alone. But, it is a salvage title, so who knows what DNA could be in this thing after the crash that took it out of commission originally.

Would it be too much to offer a free BangShift T-Shirt, a wine bottle full of 87 octane, and the Bic lighter of your choice to whoever buys it?
Yeah, probably. Okay, forget that then. So do you agree or disagree with me on this being the ugliest Mustang in the world?
Holy shit! I can’t believe someone did this. It looks like it was penned by Dali after dropping acid. I wonder if the seller/builder would provide a written explanation of why they did this. I’d pay more to hear that than I would for the car.
Add some arms with grasping hooks and you’d have a auto version of a praying mantis. FUGLY!
Dali on acid!
More like a fistful of ‘ludes and a six pack of beer…….
I reckon the builder did this as part of a strange suicide plan – he spent ages putting it together, saw how mind-meltingly ugly it was, poured a gallon of gas over it and him – wooooooooof!
Thus freeing the world of such hideousness
Damn you Reynolds!
Poster child for, “Why you should always have renderings done before you start customizing”…
It looks like a Lotus Elise after getting it’s wisdom teeth yanked by a back-alley dentist. Not the first thing I wanted to see when I woke up this morning.
It looks like the cursed offspring after a Caddy prison raped a Lotus.
Yes!
I agree. It has to be the worst or at least in the top five.
I would rather drive a four cyl. Mustang II
From the front I see the Formics from “Ender’s Game.” From the side, I see hints of Aston Martin crossed with the car from the episode of Speed Racer when the engine that was “too fast” or “too powerful” was the storyline. The rear looks like a Valiant crossed with a FWD Caddy crossed with a WRX STi or a Mitsubishi Evo. Crush it.
All I can say is I hope that this is the ugliest Mustang in the world, cause God help anyone that has to lay eyes on anything uglier than this!
Well there went my appetite for dinner as well a my breakfast.
Awesome appetite suppressant…
Hmmm…for whatever reason, I don’t hate it…
JEEEEZUS – I’m speechless, oh wait got one thing UGLY
How much were you able to get it for Chad ? 🙂
This should be in the new Pee Wee Herman movie. Its got that look about it.
Almost hyperventilated laughing at pics. Haven’t read words yet.

Whoa! Please stop, you’re scaring me!
That is one nasty recipe. Start with a twisted chassis. Slice in a hood slit/scoop ala ’60’s Ferrari, add a couple of Fins ala early ’50s Detroit, some side strakes for a dash of Testarossa, bake on a grill from an Aston Martin, stuff in some Mitsubishi headlights, finish with a wing that would be more at home on a lowered Honda Civic and baste it in Nissan Sentra Aztec Red. Let simmer in the original Mustang interior. When cool serve on factory Ford rims. BLAH! YUCK!!
As if the Mustang’s hips and nose weren’t already bulbous beyond Khardashian standards!!
Gonna take months of therapy to get that image out of my head.
