Seen it before looks like a ring brothers knock off not my cup of tea and I'm sure they won't sell you pieces they make.

The body lines do not flow although it is amazing they were able to do it. I like the ones where they take an old car such as a mustang or a charger and put it on todays platform. That is a much better idea then changing out body parts but you have to have serious deep pockets to do it and do it right.

Jamie that car is sick. But I wonder what kind of coin it would take to build it.

It was about 120k to build it from the ground up. They do sell the "body kits" and several of the components seperately so you can do it gradually. Nice article and story. Had a very nice Roush engine with NOS on it.
