    Exactly, I find it kinda ironic because thats how Shelby and Tasca Ford started out was building cars that they thought Ford should have been building in the first place, I dont think it matters what you call it, I can really appreciate all of the work in it and it is very tastefully done.

    Streamliner, I guess I don't need to say anymore, to you, but.... I think it is way out there on the cool meter.:thumbs2: Have you ever taken it out to the track to see how it feels/handles?

    It's his car and his creation he can call it whatever he wants.

    Doesn't need a stinking clone or tribute tag on it.

    Exactly!!!

    But...this thread needed a "tag on it".....so not to be confused with the other thread of the same subject.

    Yes, your car is totally amazing.
    Maybe you could get a picture of the Maverick with one of the Gulf GT40's, now that would be a site to see......................IMHO
