I really do like it.  
Shows someone has imagination and yet they have stuck with the basic  restomod concept. A lot of work has gone into little details like pony seat emblems on modern upholstery and colour scheme carried through internally. Engine bay is fantastic and suspension/steering appears to be late model which again follows the restomod concept.
All in all, a very good example which is not over the top IMHO.

Over the top?......over the top would be: two blue stripes going through the centre of each front and rear seats, and petrol tank.....:smile01:

I like it. Original would be nicer, but very nice all the same.

I don't mind it up to the stripes on the dash and roof liner the seats are kinda cool though . . .
Would rather a '69 Mach 1 though . . .

It’s an old car with the Shelby clone look with a few new bits added.
When you look at it something doesn’t look right but then again it does.
It’s a resto but still old style as well.
Its almost as if someone’s  tarted up the interior an original Shelby.
