Here we go, another limited edition S197 Mustang and this time it's racing legend A.J. Foyt with his "Coyote Edition" Mustang from Heritage Customs. I first learned of this limited edition Mustang as I was walking along the rows of cars at Unique PerformanceFest this past Saturday. I snapped a few photos and didn't think to much about it, what I actually thought was that some poor smuck slapped some stickers and a supercharger on a car and called it the Coyote Mustang. Little did I know the three cars Heritage Customs had on display were actually the first three built and they were assembled right here in my own backyard of Arlington, Texas.



The A.J. Foyt Coyote Edition Mustangs will be limited to just 500 units with a host of standard options and a few additional options which are very sketchy at this moment in time. I am sure one of the big options on the Coyote Mustang will be a Supercharger because one of the cars at show had one installed but their site did not disclose any details about it so I am guessing it's an option. Another car also had an in-dash DVD/Navigation system but I am unsure if that's an option as well. Below are the options I obtained from their site along with some photos I took at the show.



Standard Options Include:


  • Ground Effects (Front Fascia, Rear Bumper, Fender Flares, Side Skirts with Door Caps, Rear Window Louvers, Front Fender Vents, Rear Spoiler)



  • Twin Scooped Fiberglass Hood with Ram Air Induction


  • Color Keyed Mirrors


  • Rear Quarter Panel Side Scoops


  • A.J. Foyt Performance Exhaust


  • Black Mesh Grill with Center Fog Lights


  • 20” Chrome F18 Wheels with Toyo Tires


  • Coyote Striping with A.J. Foyt Logos


  • Chrome Billet Fuel Door

  • Number and Signed Dash Plaque

  • 3 year/36K mile warranty






Other Options:


  • Suspension/Anti-Roll Bars, Higher Rate Springs, New Lower Control Arms and Billstein shock to create a 3/4” front and rear lowering effect below factory level (requires different tires)


  • Engine Programmer (requires special modification)


  • 410 Gears


  • Custom Leather with A.J. Foyt Logo in the Headrest


  • Supercharger (unknown)

  • In Dash DVD/Navigation Unit (unknown)

    Never turned down a race! What you actually saw in Katy was the supercharged 475HP
    prototype that was also at the Houston autorama. It tends to roam around at various times and even been seen with AJ himself behind the wheel....

    Yes you are correct they where built in 1995.
    I have the first coyote ever built it was built in 1993.
    It was featured in sport truck magizine in 1993 also and a.j. foyt owned this truck ford built it for him. i have the mag with all the pics and where the truck came from dealership and where it was sent to fresno cali. to receive the supercharger. Is black with the f500 badging and grey interior on my title it says model f500 make f-coyote, and it still has the texas license sticker on the front windshield , where aj lives.My truck was actually built for foyt.Jim Morris, Cecil Taylor and Tom Taylor worked on this project as did gary Peters and Bill Faught.
