I'd prefer to think that it didn't have to happen.

(Love the "MFP" scratched into the license plate holder.)

Hmm...at first glance of the top picture I said to myself "So what, another Falcon coupe replica", but then I looked at the next photos and thought "Wait a minute.... " ,then realised what it was.

That could be a lot cheaper than trying to start with an XB coupe if you could find a ratty Javelin coupe, and I've seen a few around over the years...that's not actually a bad idea.

Not too bad...if it was flying past you couldn't tell the difference. At least its stopped one American buying up one of our prescious coupe and wrecking it!

i see these kinds of projects all the time. the guy was showing his progress on mad max forum, but ran out of cash or time and had to ditch it before finishing it. XB coupes are expensive for us, but for yanks, they are mostly out of reach.
