this car hads some huge issues .... & for the price, i wouldnt pay it.

Issues:
No Front Bumper (Req'd by CA Law)
Notice the "flex" exhaust running under the rear axle?
& the fact that he is stating its a Manual when the pics quite clearly show its a Auto
as hardtop pointed out, the sunroof
its got DRUM brakes
still got the stock 2bbl on it
basically spent all this time & money to mock it up & half assed it

What immediately caught my eye was the sunroof, and the modded front "bumper" which doesn't look like a Mustang at all. Boo, Hiss.....

I dont like the seats, sunroof, the big sexwax sticker, the rims, the lack of a front bumper, floor mats look like they are for a ricer, and the big hole in the dash.

Racing seats in a GT350 that is not a GT350 just turns my stomach. Where is the rear valance with the holes in it for the trumpet tips? Yeah, it looks like a riced out Mustang fastback, that in my opinion, would have looked much better had it been restored to its' original condition. That is not a Mustang at all.
