Had to share after I saw this. The build/shoot blew me away. It’s hard to imagine something better.

Damn! thats nice! one of my favorite movie cars i think ever done.
^^What he said. One of my all time favorite dream cars.
Ugh, so sick…
Ugg, so sick of all these lame ass Eleanor bullshits. The GT500 was PERFECT as is, they fucked it up with all this Eleanor gayness
Personally… I think the Foose design is a lot better than the Shelby design… but that’s a matter of personal opinion.
I think it’s fugly.
Great work…
i saw this car 2 years ago in albany when it was 3/4 done.
its a friend of a friend who owns it, plus i saw it on reddit over the summer… pretty cool.
Looks fantastic. Nice photos.
The photographer (Jim Davis) is one of my long time friends back in Vermont. He has done a couple shoots for stancenation and other big names. Check out some of the other shoots on his flicker account.
Here is his facebook page and Flicker

Tell your boy toy to give it up once in awhile and maybe you wouldn’t be so moody :lol:
LOL ^
I really like this car, very well done : tup:
I think these cars look :tif: but the photography is great :tup:
Love the car. I hate how everyone seems to clone these things but it’s still really nice.
I’m with Krant, the original '67 GT500 was so smooth, Shelby really nailed the styling. The '68 became the basis for the current Shelby GT500s.
The Unique Performance cars are hit-or-miss in quality. Early cars were well built, then the orders flooded in and the quality leeched out. I think one guy said he found 7 lbs. of filler in one.
The pics are awesome and it’s still a bitchin’ car. It’d just be cooler as a real Shelby 
If I remember correctly the guy who owns the car did all/most of the work himself, from extra parts (hood, exhaust tips and wheels) from the movie Gone in 60 Seconds. I don’t think the car is a unique performance car.
details of the actual photo shoot are here -->http://www.vtrides.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8777
he in fact did do all the work, including body work (with the exception of paint). Regardless of whether or not you like the style of the car, his attention to detail and commitment to original and accurate parts is second to none.
