Default 08' Meets 68'

I saw this on Front of a 5.0 Mustang Magazine. Does anyone know what issue this was and if you can get one of those front ends? Pictures?

Not sure but it's def not the latest Dec. 08'. I'm still drooling over the 700hp emissions legal 5.0L stroker Saleen 25th anniv. concept machine in that issue.. good lord. They're approaching S7 power (but will unfortunately never achieve S7 weight in the S197).

Here's all your backissues:

$7.00 direct from primedia but I've never seen that front fascia before. Can't say I even like it too much but if you do..

thanks, I'm not sure if I like it yet or not but I saw it another time with not a 2 tone and it looked pretty good.

they are selling one here. I think it looks terrible if you ask me. The new body style looks awesome the 68 shelby body style did too but when you put them together it doesnt turn out good imo. the shelby had sharper curves and a lower profile front end and the new body style had the opposite. Its almost like they stretched the 68 shelby front end onto it (which they probably did) but it doesnt look right to me.
