one thing you guys need to remeber is that this is more or less made as a Bolt on application. So molded in Ducks and crazy body work are automatically rulled out.

IMO, Foose should stick to dressing up classics. This car already has clean aggressive lines, it doesn't need bulky body mods. I like the open headlights and ducktail. And the reflective stripes look cool. I don't really like the front end, hood, or stripe pattern though. This car is too for my tastes.

Gotta think if I actually saw one coming down the street , I'd just laugh and think there goes another fool with too much money and time on his hands.

Yes, definitely looks better.
Makes me reconsider painting the headlight buckets.

Who needs more than 2 "fog" lights?? :scratch: :notnice:

Really expected better from Chip. :notnice:

The wheels are a good design, especially in black.

All I can say is I like this better than the orange one. I like overall what he did, but the front leaves me wanting something else.
There was an orange one??!! Must be I missed this, where can I see pics??

You know what I just noticed... he took off the production headlight covers and added headlights like the old mustangs. I like that a lot.
It was one of the things that I would have like Ford to do.

This may be a car that the Foose Team did, however, it's not the 2005 Mustang that is going to be on an episode of OverHaulin.....right. I saw other photos of it and it was a black one that was done for some guy's wife. I think it's going to air on Sept. 13th.

Thye ducktail is interesting. Does it cover the stock spoiler holes? Where can you buy it?

Wow. Hard to please much? I think the car looks spectacular. Mustang owners sure are particular I guess.

I think Foose should hire Adrenalin!

Hard to please? No, just individuals. Mustangs gotta be the most cusomized cars in existence. To each his own, I guess...

I like the stripes, honoring the Boss, love the wheels, and the color.
BUT, why did he leave the trunck lock, when the car comes standard with a remote on the keyring anyway? Yuck to the pinstripe around the big stripes, and way too busy front end. I like Rampants chop much better, but put the fogs in the lower valance instead. And that should have been a Mustang emblem in the grill. Does he have to have his name everywhere? Engine and interior are basically stock, and does that hood remind anyone else of a late '60s Corvette? Also, the car just looks fat, somehow.

Love ya, Chip, but I know of at least three member's cars here that I'd rather have, VegasJays topping the list.

According to an episode of "Rides" last year, Chip Foose was among the three or four people who actually designed the 60 seconds Eleanor for the 2000 movie.

If true, I'm sure he's allowed to borrow his own design cues.
Oops, I forgot about that

The Eleanor thing is still played out though... specifically that's what I ment.

Now it just needs the shaker instead of the big ugly scoop, and it would be miles better.

I think it's OK! I don't understand why he has to put his name all over everthing, wheels, seats, rearend. Big ego maybe?
