He may be right with the wheels being Boyd Coddington but it's hard to tell. If you notice, the rear wheels are bigger than the front wheels - I'm gonna assume 18" rears and 16/17" fronts.
I've never been a fan of the Lowrider look (not to insinuate this thing is running on chromed wire wheels off an Morris Mini Cooper), but I must say - the '71-73 bodystyle looks outstanding when lowered any amount; far better than when raised.
It is truly the lithe, rocket ship of muscle car designs.

How to buy a '71-73 Mustang: Rule #1: Assume all classic car sellers are guilty until proven innocent.
Rule #2: No classic car dealer is ever innocent; thus, they are all guilty.
Rule #3: Buy from trustworthy people: Fellow forum members. Visit 7173Mustang's For Sale forum.
I can understand why you like that look.
Funny thing is, I never liked the lowered look with modern size rims on classic cars.
But then I saw this particular car a few years ago and I completely changed my mind and got me some big rims and lowered the car.
I guess, this car must have influenced many people.

I just had a moment. Thanks Kurt, that's going to be my new desktop wallpaper.

I'm with you Mike, I always liked the classic look but for some reason our cars lend themselves to the modern look very well.
