This is actually a fake car. It's a fancy looking kit car on top of a Mustang. That's why it's registered and titled as a Mustang. Just imagine if the actual Mustang had a factory recall. What a mess, huh? LOL The car is almost completely fake and is all about looks. They were supposed to look like modern day Duesenbergs and only lasted a few years of production. Those fancy exhaust pipes coming out of the hood only go to the hood and aren't attached to anything. There were a whole list of brands who made these garbage pleasure barges. Most of them had Ford underpinnings and had 302 baby V-8 engines. They were made out of cheap fiberglass but were quite expensive to buy. Fitment problems from cheap fiberglass panels haunted them and they didn't hold their value at all. I don't know about this Zimmer, but most of them were so cheap, the doors would wobble when you opened and closed them. THAT BAD. Today's value of them is pretty much non-existent and that model you're showing is worth about 15 grand tops. Why? Because any car that can pass inspection today is worth 15k. I saw an Excalibur, a much more famous brand than a Zimmer sell for around 13k 10 years ago. Most of them were so long, you needed an extra HUGE garage to fit them. Think stretch limo for parking. You'll notice it uses the stock Ford inside door handles. Stock Ford controls, gauges and shifter. And cheapo aftermarket console switches. And very little rear seat leg room. They were very small inside (Mustang) for a car so huge outside. The wood was real and you can tell how it's completely flat. And you can't believe the odometer because most of them either didn't even work or were disconnected. And you've gotta love the three fake spare tires. I believe the very back one might be real. While I have no particular dislike for these cars, "how gaudy can you get" certainly does come to mind.
Doug DeMuro should do a piece on that car. I'd love to learn about its quirks and features.
Agreed
Le véritable rêve !
J'adore cette voiture !😍😍😍
Zimmer must have had a terrible fear of flat tires, putting THREE spare wheels into the cars design... :P
KOakaKO they’re not real
Now that's a CAR!!! 😱😍
Nice to see one in a different colour .
