This is one of my least favorite Mustang body styles. In stock form, that is. BUT, I love what you did to it. Makes for a great looking stocker! Gotta give this one an 11. The stance is perfect!

Hmmm, just noticed, I got the rear screen in a little crooked. My bad! LOL Never  said I was perfect I guess.

Really like the looks of that one.  And you solved the problem of rear vision in this particular Mustang.  You want need to see who is behind you, only what is ahead that you will be passing.  Fine short track car.

I used to flip my mirror up sometimes. Especially when I thought there might be someone behind me capable of passing me!

.....Looks great, the '71 -'73 Mustangs are my favorite Fords.  For what ever reason, getting the stance to look right can be a challenge...it looks like you have met the challenge.

Brian Conn....

Am with you on the '71 - '73 Mustangs. as they too are my favorites....
Though I can see why Marty may not them as treet versions...has a big rear window, but the vertical visibility is not very high....
However I like all the Mustangs from '65(?) through the '73...
never cared for the ones from '74 forward.....
