The lady in the back makes it all the more hilarious.

Really though, just no to the HDR.

HDR can look nice if done well.

GAZ 24 Volga pickup custom.
"I wanna be El Camino!"

The engine is a 200 hp Mazda V6 for now, but the owner is planning to swap it for a 4.2 V8 from Audi A8.

I'm not fond of the orange color but it looks nice. Maybe a re-chromed grille too...

Mustang II concepts.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I've seen those concepts in one of my mustang books before, one of them reminds me of the mid 70s Torino.

All in all, I like the Mustang II that finally made production more than those concepts. Some don't look too bad, but none are as stylish (depending on your taste) as the production Mustang II.

 

[Slash]

There was a few more concepts I left out but those were the whackiest ones.

Honestly, the MII has far more resemblance to the original Mustang than anything else up until 2005.

Haha, have to agree. I've gotten into this debate with various family members, but the Mustang II and fox body Mustangs were most like the original 1964 and a half Mustangs - small, lightweight, mostly sold as V6 cars, etc.... But many people argue the opposite, that they're not "real" Mustangs. That "real" Mustangs ended with the 1973 model year, and some even saying 1970 was the last year of the Mustang. I don't get that line of thinking. If you can't consider a Mustang II a real Mustang, then you can't consider the first gen Mustangs real Mustangs either.
