Galpin Warriors in Pink Custom Earlier this year, Ford revealed a special
Warriors in Pink version of the Mustang. Only 2,500 were built and the
sale of each went to helping fight breast cancer through donations to the
Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure
charity. As we all know, one special version of the Mustang is not enough,
so Galpin Auto Sports of
Pimp My Ride fame has gone and "Galpinized" a Mustang convertible that
will be given away as the grand prize in the
Warriors
in Pink Mustang Sweepstakes. |

Over the weekend of September 23rd at Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, Ford’s Warriors in Pink campaign was out in front with specialy built Ford cars and one special driver. The ChampCar World Series race featured Katherine Legge, driver of the No. 20 Gulfstream Ford-Cosworth/Lola/Bridgestone, is the first female to run full-time in the Champ Car World Series and became the first woman to win a major open-wheel race in North America with her 2005 victory in Long Beach. To show her support of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, Katherine Legge traded in her standard red, white and black machine for a “Warriors in Pink – Powered by Ford” paint scheme and decals. Legge sported a custom fire suit, gloves, shoes and helmet that will be signed and auctioned later this year to benefit the Komen Foundation. Also a featured part of the event were a couple specially built Ford cars including a one-of-a-kind “Warriors in Pink” Shelby GT-500 that was the official pace car of the event, along with a Ford Fusion that served as an official vehicle. Get a good look at the GT-500 pace car, because our bet is that you will see this car again on an auction block in the near future with proceeds going to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation While the event was meant to be a bright showcase for Ford and Katherine Legge, a near tragic accident almost turned the tables. One moment, Katherine was sailing toward possibly her best finish of the season. The next, she was sailing into the concrete wall, into the air, into the catch fencing and thousands were praying for her life.

Ford ramps up its fight against breast cancer by announcing
today a very special addition to its 2007 Warriors in Pink Campaign in
support of Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Two-time Grammy-winner and former
American Idol winner, Kelly Clarkson joins Ford’s fight by appearing in
their campaign designed to drive awareness of the Warriors in Pink
initiative. Ford has supported Komen for the Cure for 13 years and has
dedicated more than $90 million in cash and in-kind donations to save lives
and help end breast cancer forever. Last year, the line of apparel generated
more than $1.1 million in sales, with all net proceeds going to Komen. The Grammy winner is joining Ford in the fight against breast cancer for the second year in a row. As a supporter of breast cancer awareness and eradication, this year, Clarkson will be the face of the Warriors in Pink print campaign as well as the PSA on the importance of early detection to be featured on fordcares.com. In addition, Clarkson designed a one-of-a-kind customized Warriors in Pink miniature Mustang that will be auctioned off during the month of October. In 2006, a portion of tickets sold for Clarkson’s Addicted summer concert tour was donated to Komen for the Cure as part of Ford’s Warriors in Pink effort. - Source - Ford.com
