gbdolfans Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) Hey guys,I just saw this on Yahoo and what do you think??? https://s3.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/KszQIo3COiBwJpAqopmXkg--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7Y2g9MTAwMDtjcj0xO2N3PTE1MDA7ZHg9MDtkeT0wO2ZpPXVsY3JvcDtoPTgwMDtxPTc1O3c9MTIwMA--/http://l.yimg.com/os/publish-images/autos/2014-07-29/42ce41b0-1755-11e4-9958-737b2b770f3c_1964_Ford_Mustang_Shorty_88.jpg Here is the link to story(I hope) https://s3.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/KszQIo3COiBwJpAqopmXkg--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7Y2g9MTAwMDtjcj0xO2N3PTE1MDA7ZHg9MDtkeT0wO2ZpPXVsY3JvcDtoPTgwMDtxPTc1O3c9MTIwMA--/http://l.yimg.com/os/publish-images/autos/2014-07-29/42ce41b0-1755-11e4-9958-737b2b770f3c_1964_Ford_Mustang_Shorty_88.jpg It might be the same link? Anyway,check it out on Yahoo. I think it is pretty cool,especially with a 302 and dual carbs!!! Edited July 30, 2014 by gbdolfans
Harry P. Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 What is this obsession with chopping up cars and making them short? First we had the shortened Cadillac thread, now this... I don't see the point of doing that to a car. Maybe I just don't get it... but I don't get it.
Austin T Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Gasp! Something different, I can't stand it! It's not that bad, I kinda like it. Kinda gives it a little bit of a European look, also the red is a gorgeous color.
Badluck 13 Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 From what I have read on "Shorty" it appears to be a concept car of sort.. http://www.themustangnews.com/content/2014/07/wayback-shorty-mustang-never/#.U9kBKi3D99A
DynoMight Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 I think the mustang actually doesn't look that bad! The ones Greg posted, uh-uh those are bad...
Greg Myers Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 and right here on the MCM Board http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=71627
JTalmage Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Nothin' new. I know where there is a '55 is that was shortened like the top car!! But, its completely rotted out and twisted, sitting on a trailer.
JTalmage Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 These make me uncomfortable just looking at them. They just dont feel right!
Joe Handley Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Hmmmmm, that Mustang does look good though, is it also a reskinned Datsun Z car?
DPNM Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 I think there is something wrong with my eyes looking at this thread. These cars look proportionally out of focus. Do you have a pic of the front/side of the VW? It is the strangest one of the bunch to me. It kinda looks like a toy that grew.
unclescott58 Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 The Mustang looks okay. The rest..... Augh.... There is short, and then too short. The Mustang kind of reminds of what AMC did with Javelin to make the AMX. Scott
dartman Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 I dont like it but it looks like they used a 66-67 charger roof.
Skip Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 http://www.themustangnews.com/content/2014/07/wayback-shorty-mustang-never/#.U9ugjGK9KSN Read the story it's actually pretty interesting.
unclescott58 Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 http://www.themustangnews.com/content/2014/07/wayback-shorty-mustang-never/#.U9ugjGK9KSN Read the story it's actually pretty interesting. Your right. It is a very interesting story. More simular to AMC's AMX than I expected. And it explains why it still looks okay, where the others in this post don't. Scott
