WOW! What bitchen car. Looks like they started with good car. Just one thing,it needs a front spoiler.

The suspension on that thing is sick. Wish I had the skills and resources to fabricate something like that.

WOW, super nice job...checked out their site, their work isn't cheap but from the photos of cars they've done, they do it right. They mention $85,000.00 in labor alone to redo the silver Ghia, because it was rough and had some rust when it came in.

I wish my front bumper was such a perfect fit... I feel like taking mine off and fixing it to fit like that.

Never mind the bumper - just look at the curved edge worked into the beginning of the NASA hood scoops, then compare it with a factory car.

The big details are nice, but the small stuff is where this build exceeds every possible expectation.

I only hope I have the patience to get the body gaps that good when I redo mine...

You will need more than patience. To get them that perfect usually have to weld in some strips somewhere and then grind down to be perfect.

There's no electrical wires in the car which may be just for the photos. But i looked at the pics for a while and i gotta say that there is at least a bit of enhancement there. It is a spectacular image of what we all would like to achieve but i do not believe that car is as perfect as the pictures make it look.

Au contraire, mon frère. Check out the project build photos - in the 'Engine' section, toward the bottom it clearly shows the engine wiring being sheathed in the Painless Wiring loom and creatively routed discreetly through hard-to-see areas. Not to mention, pretty much everything in the engine bay is black.

Hiding the wires is a painstaking process, and usually involves rewiring the whole car from scratch (also shown in the 'Wiring' section on the 'Fabrication' page), as factory harnesses tend to be routed for convenience during a rapid assembly process.

They just made it THAT good!

I'm aware of that. I meant, it's trying and time consuming enough just to align panels, let alone fix the gaps by filling and grinding.

The build photos are just as amazing as the final product. The amount of fabrication and man hours in this car is crazy.

Nice find!
