first off no offense to anyone building an eleanor or gt500/gt350 clone, if your putting that much work into a car more power to you. but i really think this would make a badass clone. i guess its basically a 67 fastback with a 390 and 4 speed, but a certain ford dealership added cougar tail lights, stallion badges, and vinyl down the sides of the roof to promote the new mercury cougar, looks pretty cool to me.

Or a california special clone for the 67/68 coupes out there.

 

The pony site link is god awful ugly. It looks like a cheap jack it up, run the wrong offset rims so I can put some cool big tires on my car.

 

same opinion here. sits like a monster truck, not a sports car. awful ...

but ya, i like the CS alright or all the black/green hornet replicas.

 

i would say little red is my fav and someone should build a replica.

 

These young pups. Back in the 1970's, Mustangs with L60-15's on the rear, and a pair of Gabriel Hi-Jackers were common as dirt. You'd find a dozen or more parked at any high school. More common than tuners today.

 

QTF... Boy did you hit that right on the head!! That is what I grew up with and prefer over these retro modded cars with 16"+ ratty wheeled low riders any day.

No one builds them because they are ugly.

 

Ouch!!! I have a bagged truck on 18s and I wanna put some 17s on my mustang

 

Jacked in the back with fatties looked stupid back then. Today it just screams redneck. Can you say Joe Dirt! I still see them in Colorado but when I was in Cali it was a very rare sight, thankfully. I was so happy when guys started figuing out the tucked and tubbed look was so much cooler.
