Nice finds well that is a Foose stang. it's the "Blackened" car that he designed for the producer of overhaulin. it was actually built by year one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted February 9, 2007 well that is a Foose stang. it's the "Blackened" car that he designed for the producer of overhaulin. it was actually built by year one. That is one of the few Foose cars that I can say I just really don't like, there's just not enough black.:rolleyes: For me one of the things I like about old cars is the chrome and I have never been a big fan of black rims anyway but when I look at a black car that is nicely accented by chrome I think it looks way more sharp than a car that is quadruple black.

Foose'd or not, i like it. at one time i had all the chrome on my car blacked out too but that was back when i wanted to do 'glass fenders with flares too, kinda glad i grew outta that stage, but i still dig cars with blacked out trim though.

Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted February 9, 2007 Yeah it's one of those either ya love it or hate things I guess. If this was parked next to StreetKings and I was told to just pick one I'd snag his over Fooses any day though and it's not often someone would be winning a showdown against Chip.

70Coupe 10 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 Id take one, then run back and swipe the other. personally, being a BIG fan of the color black, as with Bud from Overhaulin and Rides. I LOVE BLACKENED, but i also love Streetkings, and his brothers cars and friends. hell all those Machs and Bosses that he posted pics of. id prolly have to "borrow" them all for a couple decades.

holdtherice 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2007 This ones pretty sweet, though I doubt it was ever a gt-350, it would be alot of work to change the front end,scoops,etc. only to lower the value of the car. But I guess it's a possibility if they, like myself, prefer the the standard fastbacks looks to the shelby's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted February 15, 2007 I'd say more than likely it is simply someone who knows nothing about cars, bought it all fixed up already and thinks it is or just calls it a Shelby because someone put that kind of emblem on the grill.

69boss429 106 Report post Posted February 16, 2007 I tend to be biased,but,the foose and other renditions go to far.Ford got it right when they built the 69's. Except for those quarter panel emblems.They had to go! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted February 18, 2007 This one isn't a 69 but it's got something just the same. I have never seen a car pull off the multiple tail light thing but it doesn't look bad here, maybe becasue he used 5 on each side instead of six and shaved them level. I don't knwo what it is but all the mods on this car just look appealing to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bnickel 10,004 Report post Posted February 18, 2007 the taillights do look good on that one but i don't particularly care for the dround effects, especially the rear spats. if the rocker panel pieces weren't angled like that they'd look better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted February 18, 2007 Yeah I wasn't crazy about the ground effect either, the upper scoop treatment looks pretty slick though, I like it better than the one Troy came up with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
70Coupe 10 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 just a thought, prolly not gonna do it, but what about going the other way and DELETING some of the taillights on a 67 or 68 having 1 or 2 or something?? instead of always ADDING more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Yeah, that'll make you more visable to the car behind when you come to short stop.:lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Yeah I know, I was just kidding. Seems everyone has that one same complaint about our older cars is that ya can't tell between moving and stopping for a damn. That's why the LED movement has been so talked about the last few years.

Yeah no kidding hunh. DJ, I'm pretty sure Steve's rear deck spoiler is just like the one you have. I did get mine from maier but I had them make me the Shelby convertible version. They don't advertise it on their site but you can get it at special request. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
