71-73 fastback look with that sunken rear panel just doen't work for me either. Large rear wheel gap too, needs to drop slightly.

No warm fuzzies from me

I usually like the Kenny Brown conversion, but I don't like that one. V6 bumper, no lowering springs, low profile tires, and ugly paint job. No thanks. The paint job wouldn't be so bad, but they had to go and paint the top white.

And what does this have to do with Parnelli Jones? It looks neither like his Boss, nor the PJ Saleen.

Good attempt. Get rid of the sunken rear and drop it a bit. Then it would look a lot better IMO.

I dont mind it except for the wheels. Slap on some saleen parnelli jones rims on there and it would look ten times better.

Wheels make or kill the S197. The "pimpstars" that are on the car now are a difinite KILL.

Love the hips though and they should have done them with the original 05-09 Mustangs. That bottom picture, other than the tires/rims, is just sweet.

Sucks when someone puts that much time and money into their car, and it turns out that bad.

With some slight modification to the tail, I think this is how the 2010 should have looked. I hate those wheels though.
