Looks nice, but imo, doesn't even come close to touching the complete HOT of the original:

In fact, I'd say that it's kind of insulting to the original Eleanor.

It's a well done piece of engineering. You can tell that a lot of hard work has been put into the car.

Kudos to the owner of the car! It's a good homage to the original.

Excellent pics, but I noticed a couple things.

. Was that some sort of lift kit on the rear?

. The Camaro looks really good or better than the other cars.

+2, its trying to hard to be like the original which makes it look very tacky to me.

Oh yea, as Mustangs go, the original Eleanor is definitely where it's at.

I'm not a huge fan of mustangs, but this one was done right.
The picture with the Lambo is hilarious, the kid in the passenger pointing LOL.

The rear looks odd for some reason. On the other hand I like the exhaust coming out the side .

I LOVE the original Eleanor and it is by far the #1 mustang must own, and although I am not really a fan of the 2007, I would own that one. Well done. Give respect where it is due!
