    Not completely horrible........but not sure about the area covered in woodgrain with the fender emblems? :confused:

    This era Mustang had the lights in the hood recesses that would blink with the turn signals I think? :confused:

    The woodgrain on a Mustang is like a monkey humping a bunny - wrong in every way imaginable!

    And the wheels on that Mustang wagon need to go - BAD! It just screams "1992!" in a very bad way.

    Kinda agree with Patrick the more I looked at the wheels I think something better could be done...then I looked at the rest of the pics and saw that rear spare tire holder that definitely has to go! Still like the woodgrain though.

    Not my cup-o-tea, but considering the period, I can understand the woodgrain applique on it. During this time ('67/'68), Mercury and Chrysler tried woodgrain on non-wagon models. What I really don't like is the Continental kit - stupid. This one's in my neck of the woods, by the way.

    Just a waste of some painting, Fannie - it's just a faux treatment.

    Well in that case, that's some really nice faux wood...but I'm still not crazy about it.

    I still don't get it. Why does everyone fake it and use faux? Use the correct fauxin word...FAKE. :banghead3::banghead3::evilsmile::biglaugh:
    By the way I kinda like that dark fake wood on the last wagon. :dancing:
