The 'B-Bird' custom concept

Another 'Paint' custom concept - the inspiration being the T-Bird of course.
I had intended it to be an FB but the lighting on this EK was just right.

Obviously it would look better in white, and with a little round porthole window behind the door, but heres a starter anyway. Feel free to add / subtract / change / modify / love / hate as you please :D

FB MAD, you said something similar re the coupe ute, and seem to have a fixation with 'bubble' cars...

Is there a 'short car' hiding in the shed you haven't told us about :wink: ...

DR - the original picture is on the 2005 nationals photo CD. I'll post it up when I get the chance. Should be interesting to see if the idea can be improved...

FB MAD - Not short in height, but in length :wink: ... was thinking perhaps you'd made a deal with Bob and Evelyn :lol:
