Default Another "Hybrid" Mustang

Someone else posted up some pictures of a Mustang that was a mix of an s197 and a mid-sixties Mustang. Well, at the Pony Round-Up last weekend, I stumbled upon this. It's definitely roughly built and the paint seemed cheap. Parts didn't match up and it sounded a little "sick" when he started it up. But, in the end, I think it's an interesting idea. This is a "Hybrid" Mustang of a '96, '65 and small hints of an '05. I can tell that the guy has many, many hours in it and I really respect that. He said that he went through 6 fenders before he got it just right, which shows admirable determination (or failure to just get it right the first time, but it's open to interpretation). He was a nice older guy and I was glad to see how proud he was of his hybrid. What do you all think?

Also, see a 360 walk-around of this car in my FMC Video, at about 7:50.

I actually like that one a lot better than the s197 "hybrid" that was shown on here in another thread. This looks more authentic.

I agree that it looks better and things seem more "right", but the s197 was definitely a better build. I believe that two of them were built (one on a GT500) and they were sold at Barrett-Jackson.

I don't know. It's all just a little... "off".

Definitely interesting though, in a "what if" kinda way. It's like someone from 2001 who didn't have the patience to wait for Ford to design the S197.

What part of it supposed to be S197? I see the '96 pretty obviously in the interior and the windshield shape. But just not seeing the S197 anywhere

That's just what I was thinking. That's not an S197, but an SN95. Either way, you have to respect the ability to combine two cars like that.

With the exception of it looking like it was painted with a broom, I think the exterior looks pretty good.
