With the foundation in decent shape, the design direction was also dialed in.

The plan was simple: retaining the character of a '69 with enough detail and nice modifications that truly set it apart. Not just 'another' '69. Somewhat of a 'concept car' feel with a contemporary edge within the lines of the 1st Gen, a little nod to some exotics and hypercars with some of the finishes and styling cues. We wanted to flex our design, 3D, machining and printing muscles a little too so this seemed the perfect car to do it...

With some of the mods we had planned, there wasn't really a way to 'ease into' them...most involved some pretty drastic cuts and throwing out some pretty large pieces of the car. Case in point, the tailpanel:



With the opening roughed in, we could mock up the profile of the new bumper and how it would integrate into the corners.
