Foose Mustang to be Unveiled Friday
Seems more like a parts showcase than a Foose creation. While I tend to like his body designs, and I can see how some like the rims on their own, don't like what rims he chooses to put on which cars. Almost always too big. This car is no exception.
And you'd think they could have picked a clean car cover.

Watch the video and listen to the crowd...polite applauds at best.
Chip you have lost your way! What where you thinking when you decided to go with that style front end? It looks "futuristic cheap" and does nothing to add to the sutle retro look of the stang,but rather draws to much attention too itself...The rear is ok,but the long flat ducktail seems to extend the cars lines to far out,and thus losing that nice crisp sharp drop off...No imagination with those side louvers either,nothing more then everyday aftermarket stickem looking...The wheels with there extra "bling bling bling" look silly and out of place on a mustang (hint hint) go back and study the mach 1 designs...Last but not least,that paint job and interior color selection screams copper crazed mazda...which is not a good look.
Chip normally i love your work,and never miss a overhauling or car show special with you in it,but i really think you need to go back to the drawing board with this one.Nothing wrong with a redo!

I guess I'm in the minority because I don't care for the Foose designs all that much, the overhaulin' show is still cool though. However his designs are usually pretty origional, this car isn't. The two tone paint has been done, almost exactly like that one, the guy who had the black over yellow one. Hood scoops, elenore front end. Dunno just not feeling that at all. Nothing like I expected.
Remember the Camero he did for that 90210 guy, that was pretty sweet looking, the flame job looked cool as heck. Even the 05 he did on his show looked far better IMO.
I'm a little dissapointed.
The seats where really nice looking though.

I"ll say the same thing when the Overhauling 05 shots were here, I don't like them, and usually I like Foose's stuff. Not always, but usually. I think sometimes he gets out of hand w/ the paint jobs. Anyway, that's my $ .02, I really think that stock is better than any AM Stang I've seen!

$40,000 for that? :nono: I'll keep mine. I guess even Chip can't improve on a classic.

$40,000? Nah. The spec sheet that was posted online at that other site says, in the fine print down at the bottom, "Approximate retail value $75,000.00"
