I woke up in a foul mood this morning, but now I'm OK. It's good to start your day with a good laugh.

Sounds about right, although to get really technical...judging by the GT emblem it looks to be a 94-95 SN95 GT. (last of the 5.0's , Ford switched to 4.6 in 1996)

You are correct there man! Do I sense a Mustang owner or former owner?

(Along side my Vette - I have a nicely built Cobra so I consider myself a Mustang guy as well )

for some reason it reminds me of those old bearded lady pictures lol



however, if you squint your eyes so you can't see how bad the execution is, you can kinda see what the guy was going for in the pic with the top down.





haha, on further review, I think someone must have did this mod for a chic in their life....almost impossibly, they have taken three very masculine looking cars and made them look feminine lol, like a mazda miata or an older mercedes Slk 350 convertable. Somebody's daughter or girlfriend is very happy with it I'm sure....and you can't blame a guy for that lol.

Frankenstang...

Ugly in my opinion but if he enjoys his car good luck to him.

What sucks is that the talant to do that is actually impressive, but the end result and choice of vehicle just doesn't do justice to the ability of the person or people that did the work.

I saw a 05 mustang in the rearview, but from the side I saw a older generation stang, but after it passed, I swear it was a vette that passed me.... Must be the new Cortang? Or is it a Musvette? Or a Transformer? Or maybe I'm just getting old?

The money he spent on that could have been used on some common sense.

That's a '94 Mustang. The molding underneath the doors is the giveaway. 94 was the only year that they went straight across like that. 95 and newer cars had a piece added that blended them into the front wheel well.

And yes, I used to own one.
