    Default '81 Cobra build on tv

    I watch all the "car" shows on tv, and this morning was no exception. On Paramount network (used to be Spike) they are going to do something with a '81 Cobra. Its red right now but sounds like they are changing to black and doing some nice mods to it. And they are not changing to to an aero nose either. I'll watch with low hopes so when they do something stupid I wont be as disappointed.

    Saw it too. Nice to see it but I fear they will hack up what looks like a pretty clean car. If like to "find" the cars they always come up with. That regal looks pretty nice too

    John McBride (the design designing the cncept) showed the sketch on his Instagram tonight. It's going to be a good looking car if it comes out like his sketch. I'd say have high hopes. It's nothing over the top and very achievable.

    Watched it! That should be a lot of fun! I also love how they're doing a competition sort of thing. I really enjoyed when Trucks did Truck Wars with the Lightning and 454SS. Plus, my only non-Ford EVER was a G-body Regal just like the one they have!

    And didn't I just say this is the sort of thing Car Craft should be doing? Yep, still think so.

    C'mon, I mean BUILDING '80s cars, not testing stock ones.

    Loved the mock-up they did. Can't wait to see that project play out this season.
