Wow, great first post! To me, this is more of an extreme case of ignorance on your part! I am sure that everyone involved in the build really appreciates your enlightening opinion on what you would have done. I really don't get why people like you feel the need to go onto a thread and post crap like this.

There are a lot of good attacks in your first post. Makes you wonder who didn't have the nerve to post this under their actual username If this is an actual newbee you may want to rethink your introductory post. Or maybe post pictures of your can and let everyone have a run at telling you what they think you did wrong.

The Goolsby crew had the vision to create an incredible car out of one of the ugliest Mustangs ever produced. If anything, this car has not gotten as much attention and publicity as it deserves.

He builds Mustangs. Has a right to his opinion, but not the ideal way to start out on a site.

I want to add that I do not know the Goolsby crew personally, but they did a great job with what was considered the ugly step-sister of the Mustangs. And the Ring Bros? Besides being the nicest guys you'll ever meet, and uber-talented, they must be doing something right as they keep winning award after award with their builds.

As I told Modmach on his thread

https://lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=4961

I never liked that year of mustang but I like yours. No wait I love yours.

I've always thought the Ford designers had a lot of good ideas that the bean counters and the materials of the day didn't allow them to execute when they built those cars.

That car is beautiful; yet still recognizable as a grown up version of the bucked toothed pimple faced kid it was in the early 70s.

Awesome just awesome. It could only be better if it was a Torino.

Uncle Rico strikes again. I'll tell Jonathan and Josh that we should scrub the plans we have on all the new projects, apparently we missed the new trend in disco-touring that's sweeping the nation. I should just put down my pencils and markers and brush up on my LSD induced wizard murals and dancing bears. I swear I know this guy from every New England car show I've ever been to.

Everyone needs to remember that light travels faster than sound so people often appear bright until they speak.

It's best to ignore him and focus on what a stellar build this is. Great vision, great execution over the top but not over done. I need to get some of that moonshine those guys at Goolsby are drinking that leads to these kind of visions. It is obviously a euphoric high.

"Some cool mods..."

dude, you should have just stopped there. so, you just don't get the "pegasus" concept. it's ok. there will be others you might like. i'm fairly certain the "goolsby crew" will gladly build you one just the way you want it. give em a call and see if you guys can get together.
