Obviously the car isn't completed yet, but what do you guys think based on the photos?

Rear tires are going to be 335/30/20s. A bunch of guys on the Shelby forums have the same tire under the stock bodies with a 20x11.75 /20x12 widened Alcoa wheel.

I love the looks of those flares very nicely done. You guys just grew up in the wrong era. Wide body race cars were just amazing n the late 70s and 80s. Look at the Mercedes Black series gorgeous car somebody besides me appreciates these.

The craftsman ship is very impressive. Different / All hand made pannels. I woldnt buy one (afford one) but sure love looking at it. You have to remember that its a form of art for all to look at if they so choose. Also the 780 hp supercharger. I would not put one in my Boss but sure would not mind taking that out for some runs. It must run around 10:7 in the 1/4 or maybe even better.

I like it as well, but couldn't fathom the coin dropped to build it. I also really like the satin/denim finish on the paint. Ever since seeing the first demin Harley paint finish a few years back I've wondered what it would look like on a car.

You gotta remember...it's built to show @ SEMA (and it will be a horse race to finish it). I look forward to seeing it in person, along with all the other outrageous cars that will be on display.

I saw several wide body mustangs at last years LA Autoshow. Akward but there is a kind of appeal. I would never do it to my car. But in person it's only some ugly.
