I think more of a reflective effect to the roof would help

Looks great, I can see what you're going for, but is it supposed to be a coupe or conv. w/ removable hardtop? Btw, that looks ssoo much like my '66 coupe!!!

its supposed to be some kind of a photoshopped pic but i thought it was interesting with the 60's styling it has with the roof, looks decent but definitely not to bad

i think it would look better with the roof at more of an angle and maybe a smaller rear end with like a built in ducktail spoiler, and maybe add bigger hips to the rear quarter panels.

I think your work is excellent, and I applaud your efforts. I love the retro look, and those hips should have been on the factory 'stang in the first place. I can't see Ford building it, though. I think the current "fastback" and 'vert are enough for the Ford lineup, and I'd probably pick one of those over this retro coupe, if I were to buy another, even with the increased rear-seat head room. It would make a great removable hardtop for the 'vert! Great aftermarket idea!

Nice. It's an after-market hard top for a vert

Maybe its missing the chrome trim,like the roof rail trim and the rear window trim.Even a trim band around the seam might step it up a bit.I do like the the style of the top though.

I like it, It does bring the coupe aspect into it and the hip looks good. I think if I had to pick between this or current fastback style, it would have to be fastback.
