    There is a Hot Wheels maverick that comes to the roundup. No wing, but it has flames. Looks good.:)

    I can dig the boss 429 hood scoop and the side pipes. The proportions on the wing are a little over the top to me. Then again, I think Plymouth Superbirds look stupid.

    I agree.....the scoop and side pipes look cool. The Super birds and Daytonas had a certain coolness factor for racecars......but streetcars, not so much:)

    if i did actualy follow through with it i would use one of thoes bolt on spoilers, the ones the come in three pieces or a wing spoiler from a 70's mustang. when i finish bulding my mild 250 I6 im going to use a 429 scoop anyway(might flip it backwards and use it as a cowl). black cherry is a dark purplish color. on cloudy days it looks black but when its sunny you see the true color alot better ,i could keep tha same color if i wanted to. dont know if i could put side pipes on a six though, it would look cool though . all it needs is a rear spoiler and chin spoiler and a 1 to 2inch drop in the front.

    i think i'll use black cherry. the magenta looks too girly to me

    I like your car the way it is. Maybe lower the front end a little, then cruise..

    Wow that is kind of a kick in the teeth it's not even in the ford family....That car is a Holden Monaro. Holden is Australia's version of Chevrolet...

    They are cool cars in there own right. But who knows I might be completely wrong and it might look cool I figure if you were gonna do that go for the whole xb-falcon makeover that mad max did:D

    Dude, don't EVER show pictures of that Monaro again....

    I won't be able to sleep after seeing pictures of that. I might have to watch Saving Private Ryan to get those images out of my head...;)

    That thing is UGLY!
