Did anyone look at this Mustang closely? Anyone know why the front bumper is 2 inches too wide on both sides of the car? I never saw a Mustang with a bumper that wide before. Its like the wrong front bumper. [ April 29, 2008, 08:54 PM: Message edited by: 532Fastback ]

The 67-68 Shelbys did not have the same front end/nose as the regular Mustangs. They were fiberglass and stretched out further.

yeah i know that, but why a wider bumper? none of the other "Shelbys" at the show had this bumper.

That car is a clone so maybe that has something to do with it. Pretty nice car though.

yeah i figured it was cause it was "slightly" modified and you have to have huge balls to modify a Shelby but why make a clone and then put a weird front bumper on it that doesn't match a real shelby?

I'd guess it is just a poor reproduction bumper. It's best to rechrome an original if at all possible. Problem is it costs at least twice as much to rechrome one (usually more) than buying a reproduction.

That thing was horrible, thats why I didnt take a pic of it...I didnt look too closely at it, but i remember the paint looking flat & the surface looking wavy, & the tires were too low profile for the wheels, not too mention it had the original shelby style wheels, & not the Halibrand style wheels....
That boss 302 was badass though.... [ May 02, 2008, 06:56 PM: Message edited by: EPIK ]

LOL yeah, when i saw that i was like WTF!? i looked at it and they didn't even sanding the bondo they added, they didn't sand the fiberglass too they just painted it with shitty paint, maybe even a roller and didn't color sand it. I don't understand why spend all that money on Shelby equipment and Eleanor stuff to make a piece of shit?
