Re: Chip Foose Mustang
Eh... sorry doesn't do much for me and I've seen other tuner stangs which I think are far better looking. It looks a bit lacking in "agression", the two tone paint with the yellow pinstripe does absolutlely nothing for me and those rims are overly blingy. Don't care for the blacked up engine bay either.
But I guess whether I persoanlly like it is not the point of this car
.... plus I'm sure the workmanship is excellent; different strokes for different folks.

Not digging the wheels at all.

Sometimes it does look good though.

Re: Chip Foose Mustang
I know I'm gonna get flamed for this being a high rankning officer of the 'anti-retro' camp, but....
When I look at that front end and the front of the Cobra that was on the cover of C&D a few months back, my impression was the car was 'happy' and not all all agressive or 'mean'. This was the way the front is styled, with it's big round headlights and trapazoidal lower grill, it looked more 'Thomas the Train' or 'a lab puppy bounding over the floor to greet you' rather than 'mean machine.
Just what I see there.
