Guess that's why we have more than 1 auto maker, that makes more than 1 type of vehicle every year.:D Quote Selected

Below are the results of my perverted idea. This was done many years ago, before I knew much about these cars, so the tail lights are different than what I'd do if I actually built one (I was going for the Mercury look, but actually prefer the 87-88 T-Bird look). My "Concept" would have had a fiberglass removable roof that opened all the way to the tailgate, for a convertible with door frames, quarter windows and c-pillars.If you think this looks bad, you should see my idea for the interior. Picture a complete home stereo with dual cassette decks in the center stack. Remember, this was done in the early 90's, when CD players weren't popular. If I were to do it over I'd do it with a mini-PC with touch screen, like Baxo's (except I wouldn't use a Fisher Price (Mac) computer :D Quote Selected
