Have you seen this type of Mustang?

#1 Pony · 01-01-2002, 04:37 PM

Or at least heard of it?

GB Mustang.

What if the new mustang coming in the future looks like this, what do you think about it? I doubt that will happen
because they have noting to do with Ford, they created this themselves and use USED mustang and convert them. They also have a strictly racing version too. Here's their URL.

i've seen them in the magazines and personally i think they are ugly as hell

i like their idea of making it look like an older style but they did a bad job on it

if any FORD mustang ever looks like that then theres no way i'd ever own one

the first one wasnt too bad,needs some chrome to make it look older the second one sux

I seen those in an old mustang mag I had bought. I read in the article that they would have a new 5.0 engine in them too. There was a picture of a red one and a pink and yellow one. Id buy one just for collector purposes.

If I remember correctly the GB Mustang was a kit car. I remember reading about in a mag one of my friend's had, but that was several years ago. I THINK it is based on the fox body, but I can't remember for sure. But I'm almost positive it is a kit car. In my opinion they are not very good looking and remind me too much of the Mustang II's.

I don't think it looks bad at all.. but... why would I pay them $40k for a car I could put together for a quarter the price? Good idea though, there has got to be thousands of mustang IIs around that nobody wants.. add a fox chassis and a 306 and some body kits.... If they sell any then they will be making a fortune.

i'm not really sure wut i think of it???
part of me likes it but another part of me doesn't

It's almost as bad as a Mustang II. Not quite though.

2FastLX · 01-02-2002, 03:58 AM

To me if they are going to do that much work to build these cars they should have picked a better chassis. The McPherson strut setup on these cars really sucks compared to a dual A-arm configuration.

And if I was thinking of going out and spending that much money on a kit car I'd buy an A/C Cobra conversion long before I'd even consider one of these.

I don't know if they're ugly, or not too bad, but they definately are different.

IMO, doesn't look that bad to me. I've seen it b4 and I can say that I wasn't too impressed, but to me it looks okay. Kinda like it.

I feel the same-I see a little of Mach 1 in it too.
