Evolution at work and revolution soon to follow!
The last renditions come pretty darn close to fixing the "Shoebox racer" look of Daisy.
Buzz, you're a whiz with photo paint! Just being picky here, but I'd suggest that the bottom of the nose opening be flattened upward just a touch to match the curve of the top of the opening. Same for the cooler scoop. It has just a little curve in it too.
I'm probably going against the grain here, but I gotta say, with the shape of the front fenders as they are, the addition of the large louvers does give it a corvette look. I know they are both functional and a styling cue for a Cobra, but I can live without them unless they can be made smaller and placed in the fender as on a Cobra.....and yes, if that means making a notch and re-doing the existing scoop, I'd do it. If the existing scoop needs to stay, I'd opt for leaving out the louvers.
Over all Buzz, you've taken butt ugly and turned it into something I'd consider buying. As is, in original form, Daisy just looks like a rice rocket on steroids.
Ford, are you listening......? This isn't very polite or politically correct, but don't try to out Jap the Japanese.....especially with an American Icon!! You did it right when you "re-did" the GT. Now don't screw up the Cobra.
To our Portugese friend, those are outstanding drawings you've done. I'm surprised no one else has commented. I couldn't do that if I tried for the rest of my life.
Best to all,
Al
