Thumbs up Beautiful 67 Eleanor Creation!

I went to a local car show today and there was a 67 Mustang convertible there that had just come off a 3.5 year build. It had a 351 stroker with air ride suspension and so many hand fabricated pieces that it is impossible to explain. This car was a true work of art!







Oh yeah, I was there show my car too! 8:00 am in the morning

I agree, the wheels were my least favorite thing about the car. They looked better in person than the pictures but I don't think they are the right wheels for the car.

Yeah, 8:00 am is early but it's a small community park and there are around 150 cars that show up.

All that time, effort, and money, yet something still doesn't look right. I'd rather have your car in that last pic.

I like the car, but not the rims or ride height. Wheels would look better pushed out to the ends of the fender.

But then, I seem to be one of the few that like the Eleanor look.

As pretty as that is, I'm still a fan of the Shelby in The Thomas Crown Affair...that was the perfect "car"...go anywhere convertible.

I'd take it. The rims are an easy swap. That car looks pretty good though. They all look good!
