Looks like a '68 Camaro to me.

I like the new Mustangs. It's the most successful "retro" car look I've seen yet, except maybe Dodge's new Challenger concept.

I like it...it manages to look both "retro" and cutting-edge at the same time, and the one flows into the other.

Wonder how it drives?

The color is known as "baby sh*t brown." Nice, huh?

I think it looks like the concept Camaro.

I am usually an avowed enemy of all things bearing the blue oval of shame, but I like this one.

Rex,

Look close, it looks like the limited edition metallic orange used for a short time on 2000-2001ish Exlorer's and Sport-Trac's and the SVT Focus I believe, you may want to check for yourself.

I love the way it looks from this Angle... !!!!


From this angle I would rather have the "back glass" look more squared off like a coupe...
But.. all in all I like it.. IT could have been better.. but its still good.

Only one off? Hmmm... I don't think so...

Pretty sharp. Too bad I won't be able to afford this one either...

My gosh, hats off to you, what little tinkering I have done, that is no easy feet.
