    Well I was pretty bored so I thought, y don't I do some sketches for my car. So I did a quick drawing of what I'm thinking about doing. I am also making a center console for the car out of fiberglass and can't decide to paint it or to cover it in carpet. Well I hope you enjoy the sketch and tell me what you think, don't laugh to hard...:rofl2: after all it's been a while since I've been drawing. Oh and I am also making a center console in Inventor (Autodesk), and I'll get some pics up later when I'm all done.[​IMG]
    Heres the mods I'm thinking about:
    Custom front bumper w/fog lights
    Custom "Boss" hood with a 429 hood scoop, and stripes off a 302 (i think).
    Magnum 500 wheels or Cobra wheels (like mustang cobra maybe even the Y2k wheels)
    Custom center console with race car style switches to start the car
    Side exhaust..maybe
    Grant Challenger Steering wheel
    Maverick logo on the headliner with bull
    Dash with an airbrushed logo on the far right ontop of the maverick trim
    302 or maybe a 347 or 351, not sure just yet
    I am also thinking about a custom rear bumper that will look much like a roll pan on a pick-up
    I'm thinking about painting it a silver metallic with boss 302 stipes in a charcoal metallic and replacing the 302 logo on the fender with a bull.

    The price of all this- WAY TOO MUCH!!! but oh well, I'll be making most of this except the wheels, steering wheel, and engine.(y)
    Watch out chip foose here I come!:rofl2:
    (just incase the link uptop doesn't work go to http://www.htr701.be/gallery/v/sketch.jpg.html to see the sketch)
    Post your ideas and comments, much needed! Thanks guys you rock! :wave:

    Nice I wish we could get a nice crisp 3 view drawing to doodle paint schemes, mods etc,
    Any Artist out there that can do a good drawing like this?, with the correct proportions.
    I'd like to print off a few to put a few daydreams of my own on paper, maybe we could get Foose to draw something up for us.. HAHa

    I wish I knew where I saved this drawing from,because I know credit should be given.But I can't for the life of me find the info.If someone knows maybe they can add it,but this is a real cool picture of a Maverick.The one thing that stands out is the quasi Mustang grille.Looks like a modified Mustang II grille.

    p.s.
    I did notice the name Desmond under the car.
    Also Car Craft is on the license plate so that must be where I found it.

    I have thought a Mav or Comet with Grill lights would kick , this drawing is fantastic.
