If you wanted a "Gone in 60 Seconds" Eleanor replica, why would you go to the trouble of (poorly) recreating the Mustang shape when there are literally thousands of the original pony cars still available and in good shape? It's true that the GTR features a mid-engine design, but it's based on a Toyota MR2, - a fine car in its own right, but hardly the pinnacle of supercar performance. br /br /In any case, here we are with a kit that consists of a new front and rear body section, new door sills and skins, various lights and hinges, plus a supremely awesome set of rear window louvers. Get yours now in either a ready-to-assemble package for pound;3,995 (about $5,800) or partially assembled for pound;7,995 (nearly $12K).br /br /div class="postgallery"pstrongGallery: a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ride-cars-gtr350/"Ride Cars GTR350/a/strong/pa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ride-cars-gtr350/1378167/"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/02/ride_cars_gtr350_7_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" //aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ride-cars-gtr350/1378166/"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/02/ride_cars_gtr350_1_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" //aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ride-cars-gtr350/1378169/"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/02/ride_cars_gtr350_2_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" //aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ride-cars-gtr350/1378170/"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/02/ride_cars_gtr350_3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" //aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ride-cars-gtr350/1378171/"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/02/ride_cars_gtr350_4_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" //a/divbr /[Source: a href="http://www.ridecars.com/"Ride Cars/a]p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/02/23/build-your-own-mid-engine-ford-mustang-donor-toyota-mr2-not-inc/"Build your own mid-engine Ford Mustang (donor Toyota MR2 not included)/a originally appeared on a href="http://www.autoblog.com"Autoblog/a on Mon, 23 Feb 2009 14:57:00 EST.
