Yes, I know he admits it's not the real thing, but COME ON! At least if he's gonna scam somebody, get the right bodystyle!

Hehehehe...He also listed fog lamps as another feature, but there were none in the photos. I guess he thought the turn signals were fog lamps. Also, what's with the Cobra emblems on the fenders behind the original Mustang emblems, and the Cobra S/S on the horn button? Maybe he thought those would raise the value a couple extra thou. NOT!!!!
I agree, if he was building a Shelby clone, he could have at least started with the correct body style, and done it correctly.
Crappy replica, but still a nice lookin ride !
Why can't people just sell these as "1966 mustang resto-mod". I would think that would get the people who'd want to buy a car modified like this to take a look.
It's a shame those shelby stripes are on the car. It just makes it look stupid. Take off the GT 350 rocker molding stripes along with the snake badges and this car would be a nice resto mod by the looks of it.
He calls that leather? Looks like vinyl to me....

Those would be the "all chrome wheels," I know it's nit-picking but geez "all chrome?" Silly me, I thought that chrome was applied to a base metal... I never knew they could make wheels *entirely* out of chrome. ;-P

I couldn't resist sending this guy an email about his car. I think he actually believes it to be all that he says it is. My guess is that he bought in to that lie when HE bought the car. Its a sad, sad, thing and I just feel pity for the boy.
I thought that at first. Until I started reading about what he did to it recently, then I changed my mind. But it still could be the case.
recently, then I changed my mind. But it still could be the case.<
Maybe he thought he really had something special and no expense was too great! I know what $$$ I've got into my '66, I also know that its just a great '66 coupe, thats special and "rare" to me...
