Something Different

Post by ants »

For those of you who may not have seen this on Facebook, here is something different.
Would have been good to see the build in progress on this.

I like the sort of work that goes into these builds, and the idea of having something new and hitech under a mustang skin.
The only thing that would make me think twice about doing this(bar being a multi millionare and not caring), is that the interior will date. It might look good now, but in a few years it will be dated. Same as the guys that put early falcon interiors in the mustangs. At the time it was modern, but now it looks like an old corolla interior.

I think it's cool though and I would drive it as a daily.

Yep I do appreciate all the work BUT I actually like the original interior. I could go as far as modern seats but not much further. As for drive train, I like the look of the old school stuff much better than newer gear.
Anyway I am sure the owner loves it and at the end of the day that is all that matters.
Just not for me.
