I know I will get a lot of crap for doing a restomod, I know on other forums years ago, that I have stopped using, I kept getting a lot of negative comments around my project ideas. I purposely started with a beat up, barely running I6 car, because I planned to restomod it. This forum seems to have a good mix of purists and restomoders, and I have only been a member for a day, so only time (and this post) will tell if there are haters here, lol.
Anyhow, here are some of the styling items I am planning on doing to my 67 Coupe.
Eleanor style lower nose, with the fog light dimples filled and smoothed.
Stock upper nose (stock headlight buckets, and stock grill with horse and corral)
Stock 67 Turn signal hood
Eleanor style (MTF) high rockers and side exhaust
Eleanor style fender/quarter flares
Stock 67 quarter panel side scoops
Eleanor style coupe deck lid spoiler
Stock 67 taillights
MTF Resto-mod rear valance
Like I said, I get a lot of crap for not wanting to make it an E-Coupe, and some people thinking the Stock/Eleanor mix will be ugly, and it may be, but I won't know until I get it that far. Besides, I am building this car for me, and what I want it to be.
