The Boss in my avatar is my dad's. He is the original owner so i have been around Boss' my whole life.
So, I am a member of "the club" so to speak.

When the transformation is complete, the "real" Bosses will get a view of the taillights

Looks good. Just not a fan of boss stripes on non boss cars.

Looks good! Do it the way YOU like it, and enjoy it! I like the black-on-black, with the silver accent.

I like it too. Well done. Thanks for sharing. The reflective stripes and the LS wheels really make it look good IMO.


You know when you said it was defrocked I was a little afraid of what I might find here.

I think Arin defrocked his Bullitt a few years back.

I like the reflective stripes! Where did you get them? Me personally, I wouldn't have gotten the Boss 302 lettering. But everything else about the stripes is very cool.

I like it!! Swap in a forged motor and you'll have nothing to hide.
Seriously though...it looks sharp.

He's taking a CS and making a fake Boss. Darn straight I don't like this. That makes the things I do like, that more special.

But it's not like a Boss is anything special. At least he's not making a fake Shelby.
