2001 Ford Mustang Roush Stage III Coupe

2001 Ford Mustang Roush Stage 3 Coupe

If you are a motorsports fan, you recognize Jack Roush because of his racing teams-and because of his trademark straw hat. He's "the cat in the hat," as Benny Parsons puts it, the cat whose cars dominated the SCCA's Trans-Am series and claimed 10 consecutive class victories in the 24 Hours of Daytona. But where Roush's name really has gained national prominence is in NASCAR's Winston Cup series, with Mark Martin and Jeff Burton winning nearly 50 races in Roush-prepared Fords.

For consignment, a Stage 3 Roush Mustang in near excellent condition. Still sporting the original badges, added LeMans stripes, nice paint and near showroom condition, this car has been well taken care of throughout its life. Showing only 26,416 title verified original miles, this 2 owner since 2001 high performance pony has lots of life to offer a new owner.

Exterior
Showing in very nice Oxford White, the exterior of this car is nearly spotless. With its ground effects package, rear spoiler, and cowlings, it sits low to the ground and looks fab! Lots of Roush signature badges adorn the car over the white. Black LeMans stripes have been added and they run the gamut of the body, stem to stern and add to the racy look. Throaty side exhaust exits are molded into the rocker cowling. A long hood starts out in Oxford White and leads back to a faux reverse heat extractor scoop then onto the swept back windshield. Doors with well minded gaps have another earlier cue in the hockey stick cove which is in the beginnings of the rear quarter on this model. On the back is a small but effective spoiler, and a now integrated curved trio of rear taillights, (think 1964-1/2!), with a large rear neoprene bumper and a large MUSTANG embossment finishes off the back. We note some blemishes in the paint along with some discoloration around the neoprene bumpers and our consignor states that the front bumper cover was repainted to take care of "scratches and road rash". 5 spoke Bullitt style chrome wheels courtesy of American Muscle are on all 4 corners.

Interior
A mixture of Charcoal Black color plastic and vinyl combine and utilize their curved integration in the door panels. A brushed aluminum panel has been added to the power window/lock/mirror panel and gives some nice bling. This carries over to the dash which has 2 curved eyebrows that swoop downward in the center and form the radio/climate control/ and gearshift cluster. The driver's instrument cluster has white faced gauges, and these are placed in a black background. These swoops utilize the same Charcoal Black materials as the door panels and create a beautiful interior. Buckets showing slight wear, are in black leather, and have a red horizontal stripe across the upper portion of the setback just for some visual fun. A 2 plus 2 rear seat is in the back and appears to never have been sat in. Near perfect carpet floods the floor and has nicely embroidered Roush floor mats to protect the carpet and above is a black felted headliner.

Drivetrain
A 4.6 Liter SOHC V8 is seen in a very clean engine bay. It is topped with a supercharger, Roushcharger for those in the know, and with the help of EFI and a fenderwell Roush cold air induction kit makes a tire shredding 360hp. No dirt or corrosion here as it looks much like the day it was driven out of the showroom. Fabricated aluminum cam covers have been added and a strut tower brace is on to help with high-speed cornering. Bolted to the back of this potent mill is a Tremec 3650 5-speed manual transmission and weighing in at the tail end is a Ford 8.8 rear axle with a 3.27 Tracloc gearing.

Undercarriage
As part of the Stage 3 Mustang package, handling is provided by independent coil spring front suspension, and a 4-link rear suspension. Larger power disc brakes are found, and you can see nice red emblazoned Roush calipers through the shiny wheels. Headers feed down from the engine and send spent fumes out the sides of the car via a pair of Spintech mufflers.

Drive-Ability
This racer fired right up and on the test track performed beautifully. Acceleration was limitless, handling was akin to Tommy Kendall's 11-time winning Roush prepared Trans-Am racer and braking was more than adequate even during our panic stop test. All in all, a great driver and performer and with the side exhaust you really become one with the car, especially in the high RPM's. This only issue that crept up was 3rd gear was occasionally hard to engage, our consignor noted this issue and had it checked with a transmission shop, but no problems were found.
One of the best kept secrets of its time, a supercharged Mustang with Roush performance backing, very well cared for example, with very nice paint, correct Roush badging, and all its aero cowlings. This car was treated like a favorite toy, played with then put securely away for the next time. All working conditions, very clean, and ready to perform turning heads and providing smiles on the faces of the new owners.
