Looks like a really well done coupe.
mdjay said:Well, it's not really meant to be an Eleanor. The E2 is taking some of the likable asthetics and applying it to the 65-66 cars with a you customize it with your own ideas kinda thing...

66 BLAKE 96 said:Heheh, okay. Well then I'll retract my statement and reword it to say "While I'm not thrilled with the not-really-meant-to-be-an-Eleanor-even-though-you-yourselves-call-it-the-Eleanor2 stuff"
mdjay said:Well, it is if you want it to be is my point. It isn't if you don't... We want people to customize them...
Plus the word Eleanor was trademarked by Mr Shelby himself...

I've been thinking about this in my head for months. Finally there is a picture to my madness.The door panels are a prototypes expected to be in production in about 4-6 weeks (slated for brushed aluminum)
These are just inserts that you set into a 65-66 pony door panel...

I've been thinking about this for a while and it looks like a pretty easy mod as long as you have a way to easily cut the aluminum sheeting. You could cut the center out of your pony door panels to use as a template. Rough cut the aluminum sheet using a hand-held jigsaw and smooth them out with a sanding disc. As far as electronics for the electric windows, I'd opt for searching the junkyards. Otherwise, cut holes for the door and window levers for mechanicals.
Haven't thought much about mounting them but some adhesive could be used. You just have to make sure the mouldings will still mount to the original door panels and cover the edge of the aluminum inserts.
68 & 00 GT said:I have only 2 issues with it. One is the backwards Cobra emblem on the drivers side but that has nothing to do wiht the kit, but the front lower grill, how it comes to a point in the middle. May look better matching the lines of the upper grill.
I wish you guys had 3in fog lights that filled the holes completely in my E lower nose section. http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=382298 I can't find them anywhere in a white / superwhite driving light. I'd even pay for PIAAS if they still existed.
pm me if you guys come up with something. One of your guys looked for me, and thought Pilot had some but they are .5in to wide after all.
Sorry to get :OT:
