This is a different Bob Johnson though this one lives in Georgia too. They know each other as well. Small world.


That's some lovely eye candy Bob. The hatch looks like it will have an almost seamless look to it like the GM hatchback Xbody cars from the 70s.

Bob, are you going to have enough room in the passenger compartment to fit comfortably? I'm not familiar enough with mustangs to know how much room they have inside. I figure it's going to be tight no matter what.

That's what I was thinking also, gonna be t-i-g-h-t. You could always look at pushing the rear wheel openings back? Not sure how much overhang there is on the rear of the transaxle? Most folks probably wouldnt even catch a 6-8 maybe 10 inch rear shift in the wheel opening.

Is that a GT drivetrain?
