Great seeing you here on the new forum and keep the pics coming!

[riptide motorsport]

hurry, evedryday its like coming and looking at candy, see whats new today!!

[Vman7]

I wonder if I should do thumbs of the pics or full, but the full size is a little blurred so you have to click on the thumb anyways to get a smooth detailed pic........hmm. Well I guess I can just upload everything first and go from there. I wonder how much storage space we get here.

That is one FINE looking coupe a$$!!

Pretty much exactly what I have in mind for my coupe.

Good seeing you here Vman. I'm very appreciative of your efforts and talents.

[Vman7]

Thanks Kodiak! Yeah I figured I better get my hiney over here as well.......lol

[Vman7]

I hope to get back to working on this again......this summer I hope.

One thing I really need is a really good High res. side view from eye level.

If you let me know what you are looking for, I may have one or can shoot another. I've a Canon 40D so can shot in high def RAW or whatever you like. My direct email is mike at azimuthenvironmental com

Mike, that would be great! If you go over to the other FFR forum and go to the gallery, there is a coupe that is almost about right when it comes to the view I am looking for "The Dreamcar Coupe" pic. That should give you an idea. Jpeg will do, needs to be at least 300 res or higher.

Is yours blk or is that a very dark green? It seems like all the good pics I have seen so far to work with are always in a dark color, which is ok, it's just harder to work with, greys are the best, then you can do anything you want pretty much. But at this point I guess I should just be thankful and do with what is offered.

again, thanks :)

That is sick looking on my favorite car of all time!

Thanks Dave! A lot more to come, I can't wait to get back on my wide body version aka Banshee Coupe design.

So, when will you produce this diffuser?

It's sick looking your design Vman7. Good work.

[Dave Smith]

The guys in Europe designed some fender flares that made the car look even tougher (is that even possible?). but they really did look great.

David,

Those rear fenders are very similar to the ones that I made. I modeled mine off an old picture of an original that I found. P.S. I do have molds for them.

Here is a picture of the unfinished rear end.

And this is the best picture I have of the finished rear end.

They were a lot of work, but they cover the tires better. As soon as I have the custom interior finished and the new rocker panels, I plan to work on the diffuser mold. I really like your work and plan to use yours as a starting point. From my initial measurements, I will have to made some changes to the shape to fit the Mustang fuel.

Probably never.....unless I win the lottery to build a Coupe. I mostly do the design stuff on just ideas I have and that maybe some of the ideas could be used by others.

Dave you wouldn't happend to have a picture of them would you?

Ron, I remember those pics from the other site, very nice work! I mostly remember the backup/3rd brake light you used, since it is of a Ford Ranger, which I own myself.

As far as the rear flares, they really aren't flares, kind of hard to explain, that's why I called them extensions. What I did in the design was bring down the bottom edge of the fender. The whole bottom part of the fender is reworked (curve from the wheel well all the way to the rear) with a new curve in the bottom half, to blend in with the body. Not sure if that makes any sense. When I get some time I will do a 3D drawing to show what I am talking about.

[Vman7]

I hope to do some updates explaining some stuff soon, like the rear fender extensions and some of the rear spoiler ideas.
