I'm not a real big fan of the Foose stuff. About 15 years ago I really liked the idea of a 30's-40's era Ford coupe (think ZZ Top here), but the interest didn't last. By the time I ahd any money to spend on fun cars my interest was sparked by an advertisement for a 1986 Ferrari TR (asking about $40k). So after some research I decided on the 348 that I bought. Foose makes an improvement on the typical American sedan, but the exaggerated wheels seem to be overdone to me. Nice lines, but he seems like more of an artist / designer than a nuts and bolts guy to me. I prefer the design of all of Fran's superlite cars better. but an interesting find, thanks for posting it!
