How the '05 lines up with the current body style

[Black Cobra]

Literally

Have to love the longer wheelbase, but otherwise the dimensions are amazingly close:dw:

Overlaying the FR500

SWEET

I wonder when the 05 comes out we can buy the FR500 body

You know, as I've been listening to people talk about all the styling and such about the new car I just keep thinking "it looks like the current mustang". Yeah, it's different but without knowing any better you might think it was just another mild SN95 evolution.

That's probably good, ford needs this to be a success, and when it's doing well you don't make radical changes.

Re: black cobra

Black Cobra I noticed that you are from Alabama. I am from the Mobile area. What part of Alabama are you from.

 

[Black Cobra]

Faztang, I'm in Montgomery.

 

[Faztang]

Cool, If I am ever up that way I will look you up. Not that many 03 owners down here that I have been able to find. Later

 

[Black Cobra]

Fazstang,
That would be cool. The only other '03 here in Montgomery that I know of is a Red Convertable that belongs to one of my brother's bosses.

that '03 pic looks to be the correct scale.....could the new body stlye really have that much more wheelbase? Looks to me like there is about a 8" difference!

The S197 will be built on the dew-lite platform and should have 50-50 weight distribution. The SN95, of course, is history. The new era Mustangs will be built at the Flat Rock plant...which also has a state-of-the-art paint factory...I hope

Faztang& Black Cobra,

If either of you are in P'Cola, e-mail me first and we'll have lunch or meet at the Burger King on 9 Mile Rd.Sat night. I don't go to BK much, but I would for a Cobra man. I'll be the one in a '95 "R".

re: Cobra R Man

Haven't been to BK in a while. Next time I'm over that way I'll try and get up with ya. By the way do you look at any of the local boards? I have one. Email me and I'll give you the link. Later Tommy
