Jim Cunningham plans to debut two of the new 2010 Mustangs this weekend at the NHRA U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis. The new cars will not be equipped with the new Ford Hemi engines but the sleeker bodies and newer chassis should make a significant improvement as well as a few new parts from Ford. These shots were taken outside of Jerry Haas Race Cars in Fenton, Mo.

The Mustang driven by Cunningham was built by Haas while Enders' Mustang was started by Don Ness and completed by Dennie Burnevik at Sinned Customs. The cars are twins but not identical.

Ford Racing has provided the Cunningham Motorsports with "interim" engine components while the manufacturer completes the new Hemi. The "interim" engines have been on the dyno and reportedly produced considerable improvement over their predeccessor.

Enders is testing her Mustang today at Gateway International Raceway outside of St. Louis while Cunningham will make his shakedown runs on Wednesday.
