Unveiling the Monster Mustang: Largest Ford Ever Built with Ram Truck Secrets Exposed
The Rammus: A Mind-Boggling Mashup of Ford Mustang and Ram Pickup
You know the old saying: "What do you get the Sheikh who has everything?" Well, it turns out that the answer is a car that defies categorization. Meet the Rammus, a creation that’s equal parts stunning and bewildering.
The Rammus has been around for a while, with renderings of the car appearing on Carscoops back in 2017. Commissioned by Sheikh Hamad bin Hamdan al Nahyan, the car was designed by Hussain Albagali and took around seven months to build. If you take a look at Albagali’s portfolio of car customization concepts, you’ll see that the Rammus is very much on-theme for him.
Fender-Mounted Spare Tires: The Beginning of a Wild Ride
The Rammus boasts some impressive eccentricities, but the fender-mounted spare tires are just the tip of the iceberg. What you’re looking at is the result of grafting a 2015 Ford Mustang convertible’s body to the frame of a Ram pickup. Yes, you read that right – a Mustang convertible body attached to a Ram pickup truck frame.
Under the Hood: A V8 Powerhouse
The Rammus packs a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 engine, which is impressive in its own right. But the real question is: why stop at just one V8? With the engine bay’s ample space, it’s not hard to imagine another Hemi lurking beneath the surface, just waiting to be unleashed.
A Mashup of a Cabin
The interior is just as wild, with the bulk of the cabin lifted directly from the Mustang. However, the steering wheel and gear selector are both Ram, while various Mopar bits have been grafted into the Mustang’s center stack and console. It’s a true mashup of car parts, and we can’t help but love it.
Retractable Poles: A Glimpse of Ingenuity
Those retractable poles mounted to the front fenders? They’re there to help the driver see the front corners of the car in tight maneuvers. Without them, it’s impossible to tell where the car ends from the driver’s seat. It’s a clever solution to a common problem, and we appreciate the attention to detail.
A Car That Defies Convention
The Rammus is firmly in "they never stopped to consider whether they should" territory, but we’re also pretty glad it worked out anyway. Practical or not, this thing is pretty badass. Who needs a car that follows the rules when you can have one that breaks them with style?
