Hey Buzz, I totally agree. I'm surprised a P51 theme on a KMP has not been done for a show car. It would be a brave project with a questionable resale value. I would enjoy seeing more out of the box modifications. I think we are entering a new ara of cobra builds. With the coyote & LS engines, new technologies and manufactures willing to push the envelope to make these iconic cars safer, this hobby will continue to grow and explode afer the recession is over.
