MALVERN, PA -- Aug. 17, 2015: On August 15th, AmericanMuscle.com, a leader in aftermarket Ford Mustang parts, hosted its 7th Annual AmericanMuscle Car Show. At the show's site (Maple Grove Raceway, 30 Stauffer Park Lane, Mohnton, PA), founders Andrew and Steve Voudouris welcomed more than 10,000 Mustang Enthusiasts and 3,000 Mustangs from across the United States and Canada to the largest annual Mustang-only car show in the Nation. Throughout the day, attendees experienced burnout competitions, exhibition races and performance challenges, while raising money for this year's charity of choice: the Make-a-Wish Foundation. At the show, fans and automobile aficionados also welcomed legendary industry executive Steve Saleen and renowned vehicle designer Chip Foose, who declared the sweepstakes winner of the supercharged MMD by Foose 2015 Mustang.

"In its seventh year of existence, we're proud to report that – in every way – the 2015 AmericanMuscle Car Show was the largest and most exciting we've ever hosted," said Steve Voudouris, founder, President and Chief Executive Officer of Turn 5, Inc. "Through our continued focus on giving back to the community and our relationship with Make-a-Wish, we've changed a young man's life forever. Our team did an amazing job working with Johnathan to make his wish come true. When we pulled the cover off of his Mustang, his reaction and gratitude made our team's effort more than worthwhile."

Through partnership with Make-a-Wish – Michigan and Pennsylvania, AmericanMuscle worked with 18-year-old Johnathan Mullins of Portage, Michigan to grant his wish for the Malvern, Pa.-based company to turn his 2000 V6 into his dream car. Before the restoration process began, AmericanMuscle's designers video-chatted with Johnathan for countless hours to ensure that every detail that he described would be reflected in the final product. After the company's experts presented him with sketches, edits were integrated, plans were finalized and the AmericanMuscle team began to transform Johnathan's car into the vehicle presented at the show. A portion of the proceeds from the event were also presented to Make-a-Wish's Philadelphia chapter. Overall, Andrew and Steve Voudouris and their team amassed more than $55,000 in contributions for the national nonprofit organization.

After the Make-a-Wish festivities portion of the AmericanMuscle Car Show program, designer and fabricator Chip Foose named Brad Brallier of New Horizons, Pa. the winner of the 810-horsepower, 5.0L V8 MMD by Foose 2015 Mustang GT. The car features a Bama Supercharger Package engine (powered by a Whipple 2.9L) and is outfitted with numerous Modern Muscle Design (MMD) products. MMD is the highest quality provider of next-generation Mustang modification parts and is only available at AmericanMuscle.com. In May, the vehicle was first released to the public and widely lauded by industry experts.
