Yeah, I've seen this one in the past. Isn't it ironic that they have a 73 and they could build an original Eleanor but instead they try and miserably fail at recreating the new one. :)

 
I gotta give 'em props for doing a good job incorporating all the changes they made. But then I have to step aside and shake my head at the choices of the things they chose to add/modify.

I mean, if that was what the guy envisioned in his head and what he actually wanted, then I almost have to say, "Well Done." It takes some imagination, thought, and skill to make something turn out how it looks in your head. It takes a totally different level of imagination, though, and skill to make it come out as popular and appealing to others.

Do I like it? Not really - not my cup of tea. Looks like a riced-out, wanna-be Transformer to me. But I do recognize there was a lot of hard work to get it to that point, and it's not like it's nothing but a collection of bolt-on J.C. Whitney accessories or someone simply drove by Auto Zone with the crap magnet on full power.

We can always disagree with personal taste, but there's a limit to that before it becomes insulting to the owner. I've learned my lesson having thrown the rocks myself... and also having to defend my choices over the years.

 
I bet there is a velvet painting of Elvis on the fold down seat door.

They didn't have mustangs in Cuba but they come up with some good ones there also. Saw a 58 chevy el camino that looked pretty good. When you have the same car for over 50 and live on an island surrounded by salt water you change what you can.
