That's what I'm wondering. Looked pretty mild from the pics I saw on Unique's website, but that's only the exterior. I'm sure it'll be amazine, as most of Foose's work is.

Sorry. Just a mental picture:
-Very subtle rocker extensions with Foose logo
-Custom lower front spoiler
-Custom RS grille treatment
-Trick door handles that move the pushbutton up to the handle itself
-No rear spoiler
-295 rear tires and (what else) Foose Design wheels
-The project is a collaboration with Year One, so it has the Y1 hood, although Joey at Unique says that they will probably redesign the hood. Foose was still scribling sketches on napkins even after the cars debut.
-Seats and door panels have GT40 style influences with rows of shiny rings in the inserts.
-The debut car has a 572 crate engine and six speed
-Comes with that wacky, head scratcher cantilever rear suspension (Upper and lower links are both located below the rear axle.)
-Prices will probably be north of 100K
The Unique guys are out there, right now, buying up every last 69 Camaro in existence. They claim to roll out 6-10 Eleanor clones per month.

I dont know, from that one pictures...not a fan of the front grill or the hood and paint right there. Just my opinion and I may love it once I see the entire thing.

For those that saw it, did you like it?? Steve, you dont seem too excited about it from the explaination of it.

I am already not liking it. And from the sounds of it, I don't see it being a very balanced package. The 572 is rediculous, we already know the rear end sucks and waaay overpriced. The more I think about it, it kind of has the feel of a "Motion" Camaro. Ugly exteriors, BIG motors, garunteed performance, sticker shock, and probably collectible in 40 years.

I gotta agree with you guys that thing is fugly.Like most of the Foose stuff its crafted top knotch but a bit over the top for me.

I guess its more of a Rod thing.

Would like to see some good pics but I must say I'm saddened that Unique is buying up all those cars.
