Ehh, the car looks ok. I don't care for the color scheme and it doesn't appear that anything was done to the car to give it that "special" touch to make it stand out.

On the other hand, the fastback the Chip Foose did on overhaulin'

later,

Well that is one boring Mustang by today's standard considering what is coming out of enthusiasts' garages all over the country. That paint scheme is downright ugly. There is nothing special about that car that anyone with a decent wallet and a phone to order all the parts couldn't build in their own garage. Anyone who pays $150K for that car is a fool because all they are paying for is a bunch of time concentrated labor and Boyd's ego. He could have done so much but then again....he really doesn't do much that can't be ordered out of a catalog.

Sad to say, but I would pay for an eleanor before I would buy that.......at least then I would have a fast ass car. What moron decided yellow and silver would look remotely attractive, can you say fired?

I find a lot of Boyd's cars ugly.

He has nothing on Troy Trepanier and Chip Foose.

Does it rain?

Ummm, Boyd... Bluebear here, we seem to have discovered a problem. The yellow car with the silver stripes, remember that one. You sort of rushed us on that and, well there are no windshield wipers on the car. In fact, we 'adjusted' the cowl to remove the stubs 'cause they're sort of ugly and the new owner will never spend $150 large then drive one of YOUR cars in the rain. But Boyd, here's the good news.... just in case the new sucker- I mean owner- wants to put them back on, we left the switch in the dash. Gotta go now Boyd, I think Tig is putting jalapeno pepper juice in my Mountain Dew.

My God, thats just ugly. According to the show, some guy was supposed to be buying it for his wife. He must have seen that heap and said uuhhhhh, I think I'll go see Trepanier. YELLOW with SILVER?? And I like the wiper knob, with no wipers. Living proof that Boyd is nothing more than a Lego builder. How hard could it be, get a Jegs, order a bunch of parts, have somebody who KNOWS what they're doing, paint it, different guy for the interior, then have my shop monkeys bolt it together. The more I see that show, the more I lose respect for that guy. Now Foose or Trepanier, and a thousand other guys all over the country that dont have a tv show are TONS better than that pompus egomaniac Boyd.

I know for a FACT there are cooler cars on Stangnet, built by talent, and not a checkbook!
