Kenny released a statement outlining his '69 Club Sport Racer (CSR) on the 31st. That is the red car. It has all the goodies in typical KB fashion. Handling first, then we'll talk power. Normally the guys at KB are really responsive. I was one of the first in line for thier street S/C version, but I guess they are too busy with SEMA, to answer questions this week.

Where is this statement I would like to read it, Also has anyone seen the Maximum Motorsports Car? They said they were going to introduce parts at SEMA.

Maybe this is a preview of styling changes or updates in the future? Seriously though, they look great. More "tough" I suppose. It would also be like the Mustang's evolutionary history repeating itself - just skip the Mustang II's looks. (Not a fan of its looks or "performance", but still a Mustang all the same.) Wonder what a retro "Fox body" would look like and how far down the road that would be? I have to give these cars a BOSS indeed.

I am CRAZY about the idea of a supercharged v-6! partly because I own a v-6... and finally WE have some power! But also because that will mean 'SO LONG 350Z!'

...and the great thing is: the 350z and a shelby v-6 will cost about the same!

Not a nice comment...

I really like this one. I'd get the raised rear quarter panels with the integrated spoiler, as well as the deletion of the quarter windows.

Thankks F1, you beat me to it. I know the guys a KB took thier time and really researched development of these parts, unlike some companies that threw out the first product they could for the S197. I'm really looking forward to what they can do with my car. I absolutely loved my old KB Cobra...may she rest in peace. (Actually I can't say that anymore, I heard someone bought her as a true race car and is terrorizing the local drag strip)

Man, I love that black one! If I could afford it' I'd go add that to the garage. I still love my '05, but how sweet would it be to have an '05 with the '66 windows and an '06 with the '69 look?

I don't like that indentation that serves no purpose. That is the only thing I really dislike.

Great pictures of the hips, roof line, and rear.
(Now just make those scoops functional for brake cooling.)

I think those cars are just awesome. Now I guess the only two questions remain, $$ and availability...

And yeah, that would be cool if the scoops were functional, but they already serve some function, they help make the car look sweet

Yikes! I was really digging that '69 look of that car until I saw what the tail of it looks like from behind. Yuck. :shock:

I think that is the plan. KB wesite mentions using functional air ducts for brake cooling. I'm just guessing, so don't hold me to that.

sorry I was posting comments on a couple of threads at the same time and I didnt mean to post the rice wars comment on this one, it belongs on another one. I like these hips, very nice. I would make some small changes to make it look like the hips of a 67 and not a 69 boss but they rock, the rice is all the rest of the garbage at SEMA this year, and I was wondering where I made that comment....LOL!

The rear end could be better, but that's still a gorgeous body. I wouldn't mind gettin into one of those.

69 Boss 302 didn't have the non functional side scoops, but 69 Boss 429 and Mach 1 did. I would prefer they left them off.

This car looks like a combination of the 69 Boss 302 (blackout treatment) and the 429 (hood scoop)

I wonder how you get into the trunk now. Didn't like it at first but the rear shot made it more appealing.
