Mines sort of tricked out, but the exterior is mostly stock. It has Magnum 500 wheels, GT fog lights, V8 fender badges with 302 instead of 289 script, and clear parking lights. Most of what I did besides restore it was drivetrain and mechanical upgrades. I wanted to keep the classic look and not ruin it.

Tx... I gotta say, your coupe has a presence all it's own. I do plan to do stuff to mine *Which is common place now -the only difference is how you do it-* but your car the way it is, it has it's own aura of power if you will... lol... Basically what im saying is your car looks DAMN spiffy! I donno what it is about it being a stock black car for the most part it's Beautiful.

I'd just like to say... It's not about what it looks like *Eleanor*. It's about how it is done... I plan to do a lot to my car, but I'm gonna make it look like my car, Not Joe Millionaire's Eleanor Copy, or John Bob's One off everyone else wants. I'm gonna make it look like MINE! And Yes, there will be fiberglass... So Accept it =P lol

I'm gonna try to make it look as much NOT like a Ricer-Stang as possible, though if that's how it turns out, that's how it turns out. as long as I love the car and it can beat those civics with fart cans I'll be happy! Again though... Tx, you have a beautiful car with a powerful stance.

Thanks for the compliment. Its actually caspian blue which is like a midnight blue. I'm not against all fiberglass. Shelbys had fiberglass parts. When I said that I really mean the body kit type stuff.
