"Like every other Mustang fan, as soon as I heard about this supercharged car I couldn't wait for it to be built."
-William Clay Ford, Jr.
Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Ford Motor Company

A factory supercharged Ford Mustang had long been on the wish list of muscle car fans, but it took the passion of a single man to make it happen: O. John Coletti. Coletti? That was one name in the Ford Motor Company phone book guaranteed to stir up differing opinions among the huge auto manufacturer's upper management. Maverick or visionary? Tyrant or leader?

One thing was certain about the mercurial Coletti: he had an unswerving faith in the value of high performance. And after almost single-handedly rescuing the Ford Mustang from discontinuation via a covert, renegade program, Coletti had ridden his notoriety into his own throne within Ford-as head of the elite Special Vehicle Team. But in late 2000, Coletti stretched the boundaries of his own legend, abruptly canceling the division's highly-anticipated 2002 Mustang Cobra while disrupting marketing plans and enraging SVT's network of dealers.

This is the untold story of how Coletti's performance mandate led to the creation of a car known as the "Terminator," the 2003 Ford SVT Mustang Cobra. It's a tale of closely-guarded secrets and daunting challenges as a small, elite team struggled to create a car that will long stand as an icon of American muscle. With interviews ranging from company chairman Bill Ford to the assembly line workers of the historic-yet-antiquated Dearborn Assembly Plant, Iron Fist, Lead Foot takes readers behind the scenes of this breakneck program and brings them face-to-face with the towering presence of an auto industry legend, John Coletti.

Great Vest
this golf vest is amazing. It’s very well-made. It fits well, I’m a double X and I’m 62 and a slice of pizza from 230 pounds. I just love it and plan to buy more. I believe it’s gonna wear very well, but I’ll let you all know in a month or two after I’ve worn it a couple times and washed it a couple times.

As Advertised!
Product arrived promptly & well-packaged (shrink wrapped packaged & enclosed inside additional box). Golf vest was received "as advertised" & appears to be of good quality. Vest was fairly priced & is very comfy, lightweight, stylish & wrinkle resistant. Purchased as a gift for my adult son for his future golf adventures. Size/fit will need to be determined by my son when he prepares for his next golf outing. Very pleased with my purchase & will consider additional purchases from seller in the future.

Great vest
Color: Dark Grey, Size: X-Large
This lil vest is awesome. A little thicker than I expected but perfect for my cool office. Looks like it cost twice as much. I had my company info put on it and looks like it cost 150.
