Ahhh a fellow Jalopnik fan! I love that site. As for the Coug...I would have built on a diff chassis. The Ford 4.6 isn't on my list of approved and endorsed powerplants...

The owner prolly gets quite a few thumbs up from the non aficionado. I think it looks great for a home built replica!

The replica looks real sweet, but Im not a fan of a lot of fake badging on cars. Its like when mustang owners with a v6 or gt put cobra badges on their cars. If you wanna do things like use the cobra brakes and shit thats fine since its strictly for performance, but dont pretend you have something you dont.
