Default Code Name NASA

This car belongs to a customer for those not sure it's a 66 mustang, it features many one offs that can't be shown so pictures don't really do it justice. Looking for reactions from people to see what you think. It's a big block ford with a Morrison chassis. Every body panel has been altered and as you can see it started as a convertible and arrived not looking much like a car..

You made a Convertible into a coupe? I'd say that is a LOT of body work and it's looking damn good!

Schweet! Ha...finally, someone that saw the stock hardtop windshield needed to be laid back a little and did something about it! Great idea! Incredible fab work so far...keep us posted!

A few comments made on the windshield is actually out of a late model mustang so that's why it looks long and laid back. And yeah it took a lot of work to put a fastback roof onto the convertible body

Default Hmmmm

I've been trying to follow this build for a while. So far, in addition to these photos, 22 other photos have been posted. Awesome fabrication work!

Hey mad_scientist66: Since the 22 other photos are posted on the shop's web-site, I assume you won't mind if I post the shop's name.......

HWY Nova thats awsome to know that people know this car and are following progress of it.

The question has been asked about where the car is being built. The web site is www.goprorides.com I believe that everything pictured for this car has been changed, i'll get some new pictures up this week hopefully.
