$5000 budget Mustang

There must be something wrong with me, but I always thought this car looked like it had a flabby butt. Always wanted to clean the lines up on the rear of the car. So while I'm fixing the quarter, I reshaped it to kind of give it a more athletic as$, the only problem is that it required cutting the bottom off the good quarter to give it the same shape. Plus, I will have to make a new more streamline splash panel. The sad part is 99% of people won't even see the difference.

Yup...but that should be taken as a compliment to your workmanship and styling abilities....maybe you could apply for a job at Ford in the design department making concept cars for them....LOL, I might even be swayed to the Ford side of the street if they came out with a similar version of your beast.

Mine's pretty close - looks-wise anyway. I don't have all the cool fab work tho...

Put me in the 1% group. I always thought that the back of the car needed a little more upward angle on the lower edge of the quarter. That should really complement the widebody makeing it look more natural and less forced on th rear of the car. can't wait to see how it turns out.

The rear of the car has a belly pan on it, I wanted the quarters to flow right into that bellypan. Which left the quarter higher in the front then in the back, I will have to fab a new pan to work with shape of the new quarters. You can see the difference in the pics.

That's gonna be a much more fluid look.

Nice line.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the difference between gearheads and pedestrians. Great choice on shaving the rear a tad - I never thought there was anything wrong with it, but once you mentioned it, I can totally see what you are talking about. I bet everyone on here can appreciate it as well.
