It isn't just me is it. That drivers headlight is a good 2 inches lower than the other, right?

It's like an Elise, a Mustang, an F50 and a F&F reject had a foursome in a pool full of mutagens

No it looks like he eyeballed the whole thing, and he obviously did the driver-side headlight first.

I'll get hate mail for this, but the front and back look like he was trying to emulate an old Aston, sort of. The sides, not so much.

I just showed it to my wife.

Her question:

Pretty good with a spray gun and the bodywork looks decent. To bad it was wasted on such an ugly design. Wow, what an abortion.

Obviously that was about the time he went blind from looking at this thing

Remember the title car from that bad 80's movie Corvette Summer?

This is the sequel.

It is a custom car. I can't fault him for designing and building the car he wanted.

I can fault him for thinking that somebody else is going to want to pay that kind of money for his project.

Look closely (if you dare...)... more than the headlights lack symmetry...

regardless of how it looks, it's still an automatic v6 mustang. Should have spent the money on a GT, and just left it stock.

This is what happens when you get some crack, a set of Lotus headlights and an idea at the same time.

You're all just meanyheads! This man's brillunce is wasted on you!

But seriously, I do feel a little bad for the guy. He gave it his best shot, and spent a bunch of time on this project. Remember that time as a kid when you really wanted to hit it out of the ballpark and you swung that bat so hard that your feet came out from under you and you fell in a heap? Well that's what this guy did for all our amusement. OTOH the fact that he wants a ton of money for this um... creation does make him fair game....

have any of you checked out the webpage of the owner/shop that did this?

Company page

There's some really questionable proportions on these poor cars for sale.

And of course, the mustang build log.

I don't doubt a lot of work went into these. But this "Michael Angelo" needed to pay more attention in art class...
