... horrific genocide and crap honeymoon notwithstanding (see Ricky Gervaise CICGC) the Germans know how to do a rear end.

Yeah I know. It is a partial troll post, but I really do like this rear end and I’m really pissed that Ford didn’t use the same tail lights over here (and front end, as well). FUCK red turn signals!
The good news is that the Euro swap is possible, quite a few have done so, and GDM conversion writeups are out there.
And of course, Henry Ford’s anti-semitism was right up there with Hitler’s, so maybe that’s where the German cred comes from? :p

You could just say, “I like the rear end of this car.” without dragging all the Hitler crap into it. But then , you probably anticipated responses like this.

Saw a fake M badge on one of these today. He removed the 4 and the 5, so it just said “7 ///M.”

I always loved these as a kid, especially the SVT ones. I almost pissed myself when I saw one on Jalopnik many years later with a RWD swap.

Awesome. And the aesthetics in the final result are also stunning.

Nope. The crease in the body does not align with the break between brake and turn signal lights.
