There weren't many mustangs there but I thought this was unique. It's either a 66 or 67, I think.

What's up with the large rims? I wish they wouldn't do that with muscle cars.

I agree about the rims on this car. They just don't fit. On some classic muscle cars they can work, but not here. Great looking Stang other than that!

Gramps

That's a '67 Mustang. I had one in High school. Both of you are right the rims don't look right.

I had a blue 65 2+2 coupe back in '71

I could kick myself in the ass now for selling mine for 800.00 in '77. I had all original equipment on it.

Everything looks great...then I see the rims and about yack!!

What size are the rims? If they're ghetto 20's or something, then I agree. To me, they look like about 16 or 17" rims, which don't bother me. What does bother me is the amount of space between the wheels and body. That thing should be dropped down a bit....not "lowered" or "slammed," but a more "pro touring" stance.

Davey is right the space between the rims and body are what throws the whole thing off. A little more rubber on the tires would have worked. Get rid of the low profile 45's and step up to a higher 55/60 would work fine.

Sweet! I especially love 65'-66' years.

Beautiful paint. Looks like there's been body work--the lines on this left side don't line up. Needs more more meat on the rims. Would I take it if you gave it to me?

Welllll....

Heck, yea!

^^You're right, I didn't notice that before. I looked at my high-res picture and the door and fender don't line up and there's a decent-sized gap towards the bottom.

Here's my web album on google if you want to check out all the pics:

I'd also say '67.

I don't know that the rims are to blame, the profile on those tires is just too low for a classic car like that. Leaves too much of a gap between the rubber and car body, and emphasizes the rims (which may also be too large, but that's only part of the problem). Back then, car tires had plenty of sidewall. None of that inch-high side leaving your teeth to fall out at every bump you hit.

Either way, I still don't agree with 18-20" rims on any musclecars.

Update: the above link to my web album has changed it's here:

I'm not sure if its the rims you guys think look weird.

The low-profile tires change the look of the car IMO.

Not much of a ford guy, but damn, what a nice car.

^Yeah, but it's no G37.

Those Wheels Suck . . .

#17 agreed... or an SS Camaro.

I'm definitely old school when it comes to muscle cars. But if the car here was lowered to get rid of all the gap it wouldn't look half bad. It'll never be a Mopar though!
