Cool "Project Re-Model" Mustang Mach III concept coupe rebuilt.

I took my Mustang Mach III concept coupe and did a bit of "remodeling". Finished about ten years ago. Here's the story:
This is my take on the '94 Mustang redesign. I started w/the Mach III concept which I hated the heart-shaped windscreen, and grafted a slightly-modified Dodge Stealth roof to it, and it faired in remarkably well w/the Mach III contours. I even retained the Stealth spoiler, which matches the rear skirt on the Mach III. Interior parts were borrowed from a 1994 Mustang, and lines were scribed into the body/bumpers to make this idea as feasible as possible. I'm really happy with how it turned out, and I'd say the design has aged quite well, considering I did this model some ten years ago.
Previous look:




Here's what it looks like today, after repainting it with a mixture of Alclad paints to simulate Mineral Gray, lowering the suspension, and adding some 19's. I'm much happier . Aside from the repaint and lowering/rims, the rest was left untouched, so the restoration/remodeling took about 8-10 hours. The 1:1 car makers repaint their show cars, so I figured "why not!".

Awesome job! The front almost looks like a Tiburon.

Re: "Project Re-Model" Mustang Mach III concept coupe rebuilt.

The new look is better. Not that the old one was bad. The mix of alclads for the body came out great. Very nice finish.

Re: "Project Re-Model" Mustang Mach III concept coupe rebuilt.

The new wheels, stance, and color really brought the car to life. Nice "re-modeling" job.
