The Apocalypse must be upon us . . . .

I love II's, but that one leaves much to be desired. Fantastic execution, but not my cup of tea.

I love the front and rear panels that replace the big stock bumpers. They make the car much sleeker. I'm not so sure about the scoops replacing the quarter windows, though.

sorry, not a fan. The change makes the front end look like a 1970 Pinto and I hate the Eleanor fad....at least he used a shaker instead of the Eleanor style skateboard ramp hood. This fad is so overplayed that making and calling this "Lil Eleanor" just makes it worse for me. I'd give him more credit if he created an original idea rather than an overplayed one.....but that's just my opinion .

The Only Thing I would Change on it if it were Mine would be a painted Division Bar between the two grilles. Other than That it Smokes My Shorts!

I'm really liking the back end, but the scoops look really out of place.

I love that car, the flush bumpers are great. Only thing i hate is the eleanor style front grills and lower airdam and fogs.

Eleanor side exhaust sucks too.

A clean looking II without the eleanor theme would be perfect.

This is one sharp II. The theme looks better here than on some '65's I've seen it attempted on. He definately has a one of a kind Mustang. kennyg

That does look pretty good. Never been a huge fan of the Mustang II, though.

Looks very good. The color seems very similar to Ford's 2003 Dark Shadow Gray.
