Reeds car is beautiful yes,but it seems everyone and thier granny uses those rims and i wish he didn't put that el cheapo 79-82 Mustang hood scoop on there.I woulda used a Boss 429 style scoop or better yet a 78 XC Cobra scoop

It was at the 2003 Ford 100yr celebration as well. I took several pics of it to see how my 460 would fit. It is indeed an impressive car and beautiful in person. Reed's, Tom's black/silver XAGT and Bob's White/blue JGS were among the best around.

Very nice car!

But like Bart, i dont like the wheels, too.

Looking a bit misplaced on such a beauty.......but like everything

its just a matter of personal taste.

I think he's done everything right, to be honest. Wouldn't change a thing about it. But you're right it's all a matter of personal taste. I like the wheels because they are old school and massively fat

Aha another Convo Pro rim fan eh,'Centerline' created a masterpiece with that one.I'd kill for a set for my race car.
