Red Eleanor Convertible

[Mosesatm]

We all have a lot of fun bashing Eleanors but I kind of like this one, other than the wheels. Of course it would look better in Highland Green!

The last picture shows what he started with. In my opinion, he`s an idiot for ruining such a beautiful 68 Mustang convertible.

I, for one, love the looks of this car. I'd rather have it than a plane jane Mustang convertible. I also think it would look awesome in Highland Green w/gold stripes.

Thats the point, its not a "Mustang" anymore. Why change something thats already perfect?

 

[joedls]

IMHO, it is an improved Mustang, but still a Mustang. I think they did an awesome job with their Mustang.

Very nice car

I know a guy that built a 9 second 1966 nova - he took a lot of heat from purist for ruining a nice car just to build a drag car. So he painted on the back of it..............

You can take a chance to win a very similar Mustang ...

Rhonda,

I'll let my neighbor Dave know how you feel about his ruining of a 68 vert:wink:
All kidding aside, Dave is an artist when it comes to working with fiberglass and you really have to see the car in person to truely appreciate what he's done to the car. The vert was a "C" code with very few options so he didn't cut into something rare. He's doing something that he loves to do and his finished products are awesome. He's only done 1 true Eleanor; all other are variations in color and accessories.

I really just don`t like Eleanor`s. I like original classic Mustangs.

Here is her reply to a generic email asking about the car....It was sent to a friend of mine.....

Hello there,


First of all I want to thank you for contact me and your interest in my car. Recently I had to move in London, United Kingdom. My ex-husband, that had a great pasion for cars, left me the car throw the divorce. Althought it is a great car, I have no use for it, I'm not into old cars and also I can't drive it here because cars from here are with the steering wheel on right ,and this it have the steering wheel on left so for me this car is useless. So please try to understand my situation. I tried to sell it here, but registering it again costs a lot since it's the U.S. model.The car is bought from US and is made for US market.The price I want to obtain for it is $5,000. It is US model with US specs and passed the US test emissions. All the manuals and the original documentation are written in eight languages. The car will be delivered from London, United Kingdom and I will take care of all shipping and insurance charges. I've made some research and the best and fastest way I can ship with is using World Cargo Express insured and it takes between 4-6 days to arrive at your door.You won't have to pay for customs or any additional taxes when it will arrive in your country. I would like to use an escrow company, EscrowEuropa (http://www.escrow-europa.com/escrow/english/index.htm) for this deal because it is a large purchase and I want a smooth transaction. Also you will have 7 days to see it, test it and inspect it, and if you will not keep it, EscrowEuropa will refund you all your money.If you agree with these terms, please reply me and I will be more than glad to provide you with further information how to purchase the car asap.Looking forward your email and your Final Decision about this car.Email me ASAP if you are still very very interested in my car because now I have more buyers still interested in my car. Thank you!
