Mr mopar Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) Now that's a ford ........ Awesome work Edited January 28, 2013 by Mr mopar
DustyMojave Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 I saw this listed in the index and thought it was going to be something I would hate! But I'm open minded so I looked... WOW! Excellent job of integrating these 2 VERY different bodies into a beautiful one. The Grady Davis paint scheme is PERFECT for it too! Just FYI for those who are not Ford GT 40 and Gulf racing fans... This paint scheme was applied to the GT40 that was bought for use on the road by Grady Davis, an executive of Gulf Oil Company. The car was raced by Grady with other professional race drivers with some success. The light blue scheme used a couple of years later by John Wyer on the Ford GT that won in 1968 and 69 and its team mates, then used on the Porsche 917s in the early 70s and other John Wyer racing team cars with Gulf Oil sponsorship, and is often imitated today, was developed from this scheme. While I've been fond since 1968 of the light blue scheme, I have ALWAYS felt this dark metallic blue was far prettier than the light blue. Mark Gustavson should see this for his "Custom Clinic"...Makes those Kustom Kemps pale by comparison of styling.
DustyMojave Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 I too would like to see the WIP. What's under the body would be just as interesting as the outside.
Guest Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 This could just be the coolest Mustang ever built!!! Great work Christian!
shucky Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Thats an amazing Mustang! Believe there is a 1:1 of this that was built last year for Sema. Its silver if I recall. Your example is truly awesome!
mikemopar70 Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Wow! What a nice Mustang, perfect bodywork, the melt between the Stang and GT40 is awesome!! Congratulations!
3men2s Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 WOOOOOO!!! That is so cool and radical....Hats Off
Scott Colmer Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 That is some impressive restyling. You did a fantastic job on blending the lines of the two cars with out any hiccups. Great concept! Excellent work! Scott
62rebel Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 i am very impressed with the concept and your execution of it... that is a splendid what-if car. even trying to find things i might have done differently, i find NONE..... bravo, sir!
MrObsessive Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 I am REALLY Impressed!! That is some FLAWLESS kitbashing! LIke others have said, this restyling could do well in 1:1 it's that good! I saved all of your pics------it's too nice just to pass on by!
Dragline Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Unless you are already doing styling then you have missed your clear career friend. This is so impressive I cannot find flaw with any cues. This is the nicest Mustang of any kind posted on this forum i am certain of that. The South of France is harboring a great automotive mind. Is it the water? Or the Perrier'? OUTSTANDING! Bob
vintagedragfan Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 I can't say much more than what's all ready been said, outstanding job, I am not a ford guy, but this looks awesome! super nice build!!!
george 53 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 WoW! Not a whole lot to add to what's already been said! REALLY NICE CAR! Too bad nobody's done it in full size, it'd for sure be a Ridler winner!
Dyno Davo Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Superb build, love the whole concept and it's one tough looking Stang
Sixx Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 After seeing the wip....I LOVE this 'Stang!!!!!!!!! Thats gotta be thee baddest 'Stang around!!! My opinion!!
