(March 21, 2013) DEARBORN, Mich. — One lucky winner will drive away in December with a 2014 Ford Mustang GT and $5,000 in Ford Racing Performance Parts and Ford Custom Accessories in Motorcraft’s fifth-annual 5.0 Fever Sweepstakes. Contestants 18 years or older can enter online for a chance to win now through 11:59 p.m. ET on Dec. 10, 2013.

They can also enter at Motorcraft/Quick Lane Racing’s midway display at select NHRA Mello Yello Series events. Entries at Mustang Fever are limited to one per person. For the first time ever, participants can get one additional entry each by registering at Ford Parts.
