Saw this outside of hamilton ON last weekend and had to stop to get some pics. I love the way the front looks, but the side view is just disgusting. T-bird weren’t meant to have such rounded features.

it’s still great work though, even up close. Very clean and taken care of. IIRC he was asking $13k

Those have been around for a while actually. I think they are ugly as sin.  
I think there is a green one in WNY still.

Looks like that one is in good shape. Not sure if he will get $13k for it.

the front view looks awesome but the proportions are just wrong everywhere else.

that’s the reason I don’t like it. I love that front tho. Is this a kit that is sold somewhere?
