CAR NAME–YEAR & MODEL INFO

BOOSTEDBAT –2016 MUSTANG GT

IT IS TRULY AN HONOR...

My passion for cars started at a very young age. My father Aguedo (Unqui) Mendez Sr. was a formidable mechanic and always had me by his side. The cars in the house were always running great and detailed to a nearly crystal shine. He would take me to almost every car show near town, where I learned to love his passion and soon made it my own and followed in his footsteps. Add the influence of my father to growing up in the mid 80s to early 90s. Shows like Knight Rider, Viper, MASK (cartoon), and the iconic Batmobile from Batman 1989 literally molded me and elevated my hunger for speed and amazing looking cars.

If you asked me if I thought I’d be writing an article for STANG Magazine for my car this time last year I would’ve said no. If you asked me if I would be writing it about a different car than the 2005 Roush Mustang I had I would’ve said hell no. I loved that car but acquir ing this one reinvigorated my passion for car shows and events!

Once you get to know me a little, two things are going to stand out - my passion for cars and Batman. This is how Boosted Bat was created. With the help of great friends, crazy inspiration, and overcoming heartbreaking setbacks, my 2016 Ford Mustang GT evolved to a tire destroying, menacing looking, homage to my upbringings and the car scene. It is truly an honor when people ask to take pictures with the car, or when you see your car in a Facebook and/or Instagram feed. Today I have kids of my own, and hope to guide them to be men and women of good that love cars as much as my father and I do.

Mods include Twin Turbo Aluminator, Precision Turbos

6466 ball bearing, custom Project 6 GR Wheels, AirLift Ride 3P, On3 custom turbo kit, Injector Dynamics 1050x, MBRP exhaust, and much more.

I met Daniel Ramey at a Beltway Mustang show and won my spot with STANG Magazine in their Carlisle Ford Nationals display. Needless to say I wasn’t sure what to expect being that I didn’t know the people attending and was going by myself.
