<br />The Fox body was hardly a high point in the history of the Ford Mustang. But every kingdom must have a king, and in the late-'80s and early-'90s this was it: the JBA Dominator GTA. Commissioned from J Bittle American by Ford in 1989, the Dominator took the pony car to new heights, installing what was likely the first independent rear suspension on a Mustang along with a long list of features that differentiated this custom muscle car from stock. The Lightning 351 engine features the iron heads from the GT40 and the intake manifold from a Cobra. A custom exhaust and aircraft-derived fuel system kept it breathing, while 17-inch rims obscured race-spec disc brakes at all corners. <br /><br />The list goes on and on, and during its reign, the Dominator received plenty of media attention. The Mustang was featured on the cover of <em>Road & Track</em> in November 1989 in a shoot-out against other factory-backed custom muscle cars and went on to star in various hot-rodding and Ford-specific magazines. The JBA even has <a href="http://www.jbadominator.com">its own website</a>, which will transfer to the buyer willing to pony up the $34,500 asking price for this piece of Mustang tuning history.
