I don't completely love it and I don't completely hate it. I always thought this was an interesting body style, mostly from it rarity and small build numbers.

I'm not a big fan of the 20" rear tire but I'd prefer other rims anyway. I can't say that I have ever really understood the shaving of door handles. Sure, fashion over function but that seems like a huge function to forgo.
One close up picture that tries to highlight the ghost flames just seems to highlight that the driver's door does not line up correctly, ha.
Lastly, and the reason for posting this... Patrick, isn't this photographed at the business next to your parent's house?
ohh that's smoooooth.. like the wild irish rose.
The wheels would have to go, other than that she's a keeper.
Yep the last picture is the parking lot next door to my parents' house. It's not his car for sure, he does have a sub 5k mile Mark VIII LSC though.

It was sold at Indy Mecum last year. Some of the photos were stolen directly from the website. (like the door alingment)
There was a ton done to this, not the least of which are the chop top and removal of the B pillar and the body line for the "bustle" in the back. Some of it I really like. The roof looks too thick to my eye now, however, and the C pillar looks more Lincoln from some angles, and Caddy from the rear 3/4.
I would be all over it with a few changes. The wheels, door alignment, and slapper bars are easily fixed, but those graphics would be another story.
