Finally.....A GT350 Tribute Car Done!

With the GT500 front fascia and replica wheels installed, I'm so excited with the results so I snapped a couple of shots ....... I'm still thinking of a new stripes .....Tungsten or Metallic Silver perhaps???? I'm also considering removing the rear spoiler. The original GT350 of the 60's dont have any spoilers. Let me know what you think....


















V6???? Naaaaaaaaahhhhhh......

I know I am going to get flamed but I just don't understand why you would make a V6 look like a GT500? Personally I would have spent the money that you put into the mods and bought a GT.

yea.... i like these S197's w/out the spoiler, i ordered spoiler delete and choose the ducktail later. so yea... maybe loose the wing thing dose'nt add much to the retro design.
as far as the tribute, well that's just fine, i like the way you completed the build w/ the badgeing... cause if you're gonna do it, do it right

V6

Thank you all for your comments.

GRAYPNY, sorry to hear you judged my car outright but this is not a V6 it is a 2007 V8 GT manual.

I will post pictures of the updated engine bay soon. No offense but you are not looking at the details. Look at the details and you will see it is a GT (brake size, dual mufflers, GT badge and bumper at the rear.

Here is the engine bay before the stripes.



Before:



same car....

V8

Just because my user name is Project v6 doesnt mean that my car is V6.
