Just saw this on eBay, and I didn't see it posted here so I thought I'd let you guys know for $150,000, the Kona Mustang can be yours. Beautiful looking car, but that's quite a lot of $$$.

Meh, not very impressed Ring Brothers. Overall lines of the restomodded car are lacking. Some parts look new-edge style while others are noteably old, and the joining of the two doesn't work on most of the car. Why did they draw attention to the cowl vents with those raised up pieces? And the interior? Talk about understatement, and I think I saw those gadges on a Dodge Neon the other day!

All that work and why install a slush box tranny?

And while I'm on my soapbox, enough with the rubber band tires on classics, or any car for that matter. JMHO.

Although there would be a few things I would change about the car (AC and 'performance C-4') it's still one of the sexiest Mustangs ever.

I'm not too big on any of the Ring bros cars. Too much crap no matter where you look. To quote John Buttera," ...making a car look complicated is easy, making it look simple is hard..."

I kinda echo some thoughts here. While I would not turn it down as a gift, I think I could build something a little closer to my tastes for 150k - hell, for the 65k reserve for that matter

Where are the high resolution images of this car???... I am talking 1280~1600 dpi.

Small images don't even allow you to see the details.

Here are a bunch of tiny image results.

Granted this ebay image is larger, it has a crap resolution.

An image of this size would be better.

Now we're talking. You wanna talk super-duper nice, heavily modded Mustangs? That '65 fastback (wasn't that built by Ford a couple years ago?) is wicked cool without looking like a refugee from "The Fast and The Furious".

I can appreciate the work and fabrication skills for sure - but it's not my cup of tea. When I talk about resto-mods and pro-touring, I think about a car that can actually perform and competes with modern sports cars.
