IVe been looking at some side pics of everyones 05 and IVe come to the conclusion that the S197 needs more nose. take a S197 and a vintage, and youll see what I mean.


Everything else looks fine.

It needs more hips like Rosie O'Donell does.

Post a '65-'68 next to the '05, the '69 and '70 had "extended" noses.

The '69-'70's were a progression of the '68 Shelby nose which was "extended" and also the Mach 1 show car of '68.

The '69-'70 had the same wheelbase as the '65-'68's, they were only longer because of their nose.
