I'd love to see a 68-69 AMX nose grafted onto a Spirit -- via fiberglass fenders would be easy enough. Why 68-69? Grilles are available. Maybe a 70 with a fiberglass replica grille would be the way to go though -- those grilles are pretty hard to find. Not much can be easily done with the rear, but maybe some window inserts to change the look a bit would be nice. ++I'd seen that '68 AMX 'Blisterd' hood grafted up for the Spirit / Gremlin / Hornet > someone here purchased it & posted Photos > . Opinion is that without yanking the front frame clip forward to add the length to the nose, it won't look 'balanced'. I haven't gotten to Photoshop prowess as yet - perhaps someone with the requisite skills & time could knock out some mix 'n match between the Spirit Kammback & the AMX nose. A '74 Matador nose scaled down to the Spirit Kammback would be very interesting ! "...... Tubular........." Also, I'd like to see a Spirit Kammback with the later '72 AMX cowl induction nose Kpl. for the sake of comparison. *Other* would be an 'Aero' style nose ala Dodge Daytona or Chrysler Conquest > flip up headlights and all. The problem with the Spirit Kammback / Gremlins were that they were Aerodynamically 'Dirty' - so anything to aid it's piercing the wall of air is the right direction to persue. The AMX-Turbo ppg appears to have a number of salvage yard available parts in its' design - I've really got to get the Photoshop functioning this Spring ! Brien.
