In La Mesa, just east of San Diego.

 

Looks great, but I think the headlights could be a little darker.

 

Int'l Mustang Meet #35 this weekend. Entered into the 10-14 GT Convertible Modified class.



This is my favorite modified Shelby, so thankfully not in the same class as my buddy's stock Shelby.




and here is my mechanic's 67 (Goerge's). gorgeous…




There was a new '15 here too. Don't know why they brought a yellow one. I like it but not nearly as much as mine. Apples to apples if they'd brought a DIB '15 i'd still buy mine.

 

I see your halos are on without the parking lights. Did you somehow wire the halos into the DRL LEDs?

 

I kind of like it in yellow. However, that hood/bumper fitment is horrendous between it and the upper bumper gap. I'd be ashamed to put that thing on display for everyone. Doesn't say much for Ford quality. If they're willing to put that out there as a display for everyone to gawk over, how bad is one off of the production line going to be when it gets to the dealer? Shameful.

 

Ouch, yeah that hood gap does not look good. The hood even looks like it goes negative towards the center.

 

burton those halos look sick brah

 

hey guys, to be fair, alot of that is my photo angle. I didn't notice any uneven gapeture (a word?) that shouted 'poor quality'. The fitment looked normal from all angles when viewed in person. That being said, i do think that some of the places they chose to cut the body panels and connect them seems a bit awkward. it draws attention to those seams.

Overall it's a very purty car though.

 

The only place that I saw that was out of whack was the gap between the hood and bumper. The other gaps look fine to me.

 

Thanks a lot sir.

The gap in the front bumper to lower bumper is a horrible design, intentional or not.

heres a better shot of the lower bumper, that cut is for the lower light. From that lower angle it looks like a mistake but its not.

 

Beautiful pony! But wrong thread/sub forum

Ah I see. Ok. But still, I'm so glad I have my gen pony. She's never leaving my stable.

 

I feel the same, but when the 15 was first released, I initially said that's what I was getting. I was positive. Then over the winter I kept looking, and started looking at them side-by-side. By the time spring got close I really didn't like it. Too many awkward angles, the loss of the classic lines. It only really looked good from certain angles. I'm so glad I got in when I did. I adore my car. The nail in the coffin was how the 15 Mustang took on so many Ford family design cues. The Mustang has always been unique. It's always looked different from the rest of the Ford family. It's always been a Mustang. That's why there are no blue ovals on it. The 15 Mustang is too much Ford, not enough Mustang.

 

Fair enough but tell me how the beloved Fox body didn't look anything like an Escort or Thunderbird of similar vintage. Not to mention the boat 71-73 cars looking like Torinos/Mavericks and the Mustang II looking like a Pinto.

 

Even tho I dislike the 15s, I agree with Kyle here.

 

From IMM 35

 

I thought the 2015 at the show looked pretty good. Those bagging on fit and finish might want to note that all the units out there on display are pre-production units.

 

There they are! The winners by far. It was good to see you both out there and we weren't too far apart from each other. Both of your cars really stood out.

 

Thanks Darren, your car looked pretty darn sweet too!!!
I'm pretty sure your car and my Mrs's car will be collecting some hardware at the awards tonight!!
