Supercharged 67 Eleanor Convertible Mustang

[shaun8541]

Have this thread going on a few different Mustang Forums but figured that you guys would like to see it here.

Car is on a 2+ year build and nearing completion. Some of the highlights are a full rotisserie restoration, full drivetrain from a 2008 GT500, Cobra IRS, and custom Mustang II front end. Here she is:

U-POL Raptor Liner. Great stuff. I like the look of it and it is easy to just spray off when dirty.

[Rybar]

That is just badass. Well done. :thumbsup:

It looks great, beautiful body work. What color is the stripe ? Very nice work..

It is a Grey from a late model BMW. If you want the exact paint code, let me know and I will get it from Clay at Lucky's Chop Shop who did the paint and bodywork.

Looking real sharp man...you gotta be excited! :thumbsup:
