Ex Charlie Sheen NASCAR 1966 Mustang heads to auction

If you had to take a wild guess at which Hollywood celebrity had a custom-built 1966 Mustang convertible extensively fitted with ex-NASCAR gear and a variety of other track-worthy upgrades back in 2006 it would be a tough ask. Sylvester Stallone perhaps or maybe even Steven Seagal, you probably wouldn’t have picked wild man Charlie Sheen but that’s who is responsible for this automotive gem.
The Mustang is no longer owned by Sheen but is on sale in a charity auction and is expected to raise some serious coin. The auction page claims it would cost US$300,000 to build a car like this and while that seems high, the modifications (view below) are very extensive.
Under the bonnet lies a 358-cubic-inch Winston Cup engine, there’s huge Wilwood brakes and a fully upgraded suspension set-up. This Mustang is geared up for some winning. (more…)
