I dont buy new cars.
I dont like the name Elanor.
I would rather make changes myself than have someone elses idea of what it should be.


Something about the movie still bothers me. They are doing 120mph at 7000rpm, then hit the NAWZZ and go 160.. Supposedly a 427 FE in it.. um a 427 wont turn that and live... for long... Still it was a good comedy, almost as funny as Fast N Fictitious.. only one good ride in that movie.. The Charger.

I think i would take the SN65 project over "ELEANOR"....eleanor got old but A 1965 Mustang Cobra SVT!! old looks, new technology..best of both worlds
+1, however I prefer our classic interiors and the SN65 uses the modern interior.

I would take an Eleanor, as it would be a great restomod daily driver. Despite all of the claims that "it's way overdone", just look at our city streets and tell me how many Eleanors you see out there driving around. If your considering the FMV of our classics, then, as silly as it may be, we have to give some credit to Eleanor for driving up the prices of our cars. Just my $0.02...

+1 but if they are free or I had that kinda cash I'd take them both. I'm also in love with the "Fastforward Fastback" ebay Motors project car.....

Hm, I wouldn't buy one already built. I would want to make it myself, so it's JUST what i want. I also agree with the SN65 statement. That is a cool car. I would pay for one of those.
