Wrecks to Riches
Anybody watch Wrecks to Riches last night? - show about Barry White'* speed shop.
They did a special on Mustangs. Anyway Ford selected them as a builder for a Ford Booth competition at SEMA and "sold" him a bright yellow Mustang GT for $1 and he proceeded to turn it into a "Super Muscle Car."
The newer Mustangs have been growing on me lately, especially with just a few cosmetic body pieces to make it look incredibly aggressive - not ricey at ALL in my opinion. Anyway, after watching the show I couldn't help but dream a little bit, so I busted out GT4 and got one of my own
. Here'* a few shots of my Barry White inspired Mustang GT.
Barry White'* "Super Muscle Car" version (sorry couldn't find any better pics)
GT4 Version (best I can do)
Like my clear corners?? Too bad it'* only photoshop and can't really do it in the game...
I just posted it in the "toys" thread, but here'* my setup. $50 including the seat. The wheel was about $100 but well worth it to me. Many miles of fun so far When is an H-pattern shifter and clutch pedal coming for a video game?? I can't wait!!
Any other GT4 people on here?

I saw it last night and IMO the one Barry'* shop built was one of the best realistically obtainable one there.
One of my faves was when they built the GTO

the LeMans GTO clone was the best looking clone I've ever seen.
