    A Video about my Gen 3 Coupe

    Last Summer I was sitting in the Coupe at a grocery store parking lot waiting for my wife to get a couple of items when a man came up and started asking about the car, as happens all the time. He had been a movie producer and he now has a U Tube channel (fastrax Cars) with videos of cars from the Edmonton area. Later in the Summer he came over to my place and we spent most of the afternoon doing the shoot on both my Mkll and the Gen 3 Coupe. They were done using 2 I Phones on tripods but with this tech it looks like there was a camera crew.

    This is a link to the Coupe video

    and a link to the Mkll video

    On Fastrax cars you will see mostly videos of muscle cars but there is one about a scratch built aluminum body cobra that is also really cool.
    Hope you like them

    David,

    Nice video and great looking car! One question though, why did you make the hood opening so restricted?

    For those asking about the headlights just go on Amazon and look for 7” LED head lights.

    Dave - Great videos and love the color on your coupe. Question - what rear 3rd brake light did you use? that is very subtle and very cleanly done! Thanks for sharing these videos.

    The 3rd brake light is from Watson's Streetworks they call it a "flush mount skinny 3rd brake light" I planned to put it in the spoiler but it did not fit. But the body work to get it fitted was a pain. I can't find the details for the head lights but they are a LED Jeep after market part 7 inch round.
