72 GTX, line drawing

[Colvindesign]

it's a bit sketchy, but it's just a sketch.

There are a lot of body mods, I watched a show today where they built a Satellite into a GTX and it reminded me of an idea I had in my head about fixing the probs with those cars....
rear wheel wells extended rearwards
front wheel openings moved forwards
front end shortened slightly
front bumper enlarged
fenders and hood tapered to sharpen the front end
windows moved to be more flush fitting
enlarged mirrors
shaved door handles
rocker panel extended
rear overhang shortened
front air dam



Just thought I'd share, if you like it maybe I'll post my 2010 Mustang Notch concept

Looks pretty cool. Post up the Mustang too!

thanks, I'll just throw it in here,



Has oversized shelby style wheels, slammed to the ground. The notch area was tried about 10 different ways, I know it looks like it could flow a little better, but I tried a lot of different lines and this is what came out the best. I pictured it as a 2 seater with a shelf in the back, a massaged V8 (maybe the new roadrunner V8?) to make about 500 hp, manual trans and IRS.

You guys might like this as well,

my progress so far modernizing an early C3 Vette, trying to make a retro type redesign but so it can be built on a C3 chassis,



For this I actually picture it with an aluminum 5.3 block and rear mounted trans (to open up the cabin a little), with at least 400 hp.

I like the Mustang. I bet Ford would do good by building that along with the fastback.

I like the front air dam, do you have a front view??

[Colvindesign]

not yet, maybe if my son let's me get in a few more days of sketching (another project I am working on has precedence over this one) I'll get it done.

[airgrabber72]

sounds good, can fab something without a problem. Just looking for ideas

HOLY CRAP ON A CRACKER! Your drawings are awesome, and that's just sketching, I'm soo noob.
