updated his site.

check out some of the images of the mustang as phil Frank did his sketches and CAD work.

I'm a startup business that is struggling to do the same work, I just love it when pro's show stuff like this, and I use the same CAD tools..



thought I'd share my find.

pretty neet but there is only one saleen that looks good in my eyes and that is Blips car.
I think the rest of them are way to covered with gills

No denying the mans talent though!

I hear ya, but Ive been a saleen fan for years, or really anything with lots of style and go fast. Generally I like car design of all kinds, as long as its not sloppy. hehe

The new saleen has been growing on me, mostly because it stands out from all the other bodies. I really need to see it in person to make a full judgement tho.

looking at the concept sketches I hope they can follow thru with doing a more extreme change with the front, Such as they did with the rear, go with a more aero shape, maybe like that old Cougar render you did way back when with the Falcon front look.

i've always been more of a fan of the 'rounded' SN95s and the early 80s ones someday....

Arin, I love those too.. That why I hope they do something more with the headlights and grill.
like that of the 2000 Saleen Mustang SR.
really tilt those lights in like they did with the new cobra, and pull the lense cover out more...

Thanks Doug,

Phil Frank has done some cool stuff, but for Saleens...
the fox-bodies are my favorite.
