Mustang?

Have a look at this mutant right here, what do you think?:
Carros de Colección Ford Mustang 1970 - BsF 122000.00 - TuCarro.com Venezuela

I don't think it looks bad, but it's kind of weird. At least he didn't butcher a classic 68 to do it.

It took me a while to see it. They did a good job but I think the whole point of owning an old car is that it's old and it has that old look to it.

At least it doesn't have ground effects and a tribal paint job with yellow and neon green and an unpainted carbon fiber hood

It fooled me too, for a sec, but when you check the rest of the pictures it becomes clear very fast. Now if it had a Coyote in there I would be all over it. They're asking around $12,000 for it btw, if someone was guessing.

It looks pretty nice, I'd drive it (says the guy with the zebra striped truck). Someone put alot of work into it. Thankfully its not a 68, I need all the spare parts I can find lol.

Nice looking car overall.. just too bad it's jacked up like a 4x4. IMO sports cars should always be lowered with at least some of the wheel burried in the fenders.. which I appreciate is much harder to do right than just leave it at what looks like stock 1970 ride height. The engine doesn't quite fit with the theme either.. you got a modern front end and multicolor LED dash illumination so an EFI powerplant of some type would be more in keeping with the theme. But I'd take it anyway and them maybe mod it further to my personal tastes.

Paul, lowering that car while you live in Venezuela is asking for trouble, the roads and streets aren't the best in some places, and even though most cities are livable, you will unavoidably come to face potholes and other obstacles.

Brett, I'm pretty sure the left one is a 10x speedo in kph.

Just my quick interpretation.

Alloy wheel that aren't stock, yes, just like everywhere else.

I also fill my tank (all the 3/4 of 33 gallons) with less than $1.
