I'm going to the airport tomorrow but if you want to come and get it, I'll leave the keys in it. After driving that new one you won't like it though. She's rude and crude! and sucks the gas!!!
 
Looks great Craig, hope to see you on next year's Power Tour. I can not do it this year. I am still working out the management details of the family farm. Will most likely be driving my wife's Mustang since it should have AC by then.

Sure....so the better half can shot me....lol
 
The painted rear bumper looks awesome on your car. I like how you've changed just enough so it doesn't look like all the other Eleanor kits.

I'm hoping it goes to Texas like the rumors, It typically starts near where it ended.

Thanks, there were some things about Eleanor I liked and some that I didn't. Since it's a coupe I wasn't trying to clone Eleanor anyway. I really liked the lower nose and the side skirts and how the scoops on the side "fit" the car. I wasn't a big fan of the lights or billet grille. I didn't care for the gas cap on the side either but definitely wouldn't do that on the coupe. I think I am pretty happy with it right now but this car has evolved a lot over the last 20+ years so it may change some more.
Thanks for all the compliments.

yeah like that. I guess less chrome. Makes the back match the front a little better.

If I hadn't messed up the nose and needed to do bodywork and paint I would have left it the way it was. I just like it better without them. I didn't hate them. I just wanted to cross a little more of the Shelby look into it and make it a little more unique i guess.

That's what you get when you take it off roading at a car show Craig. :sarc
