Another 'Cuda rendering.

Maybe a 64-66 Barracuda or similar year Darts with the 3/4 vinyl top could actually pull off the "Targa top" look, no pun intended.
Nice art work though!
 
There was an "official" first generation Barracuda "targa" (they called it a "Landau") designed by the factory stylist and exhibited at shows. This made sense because there was no convertible at that time. The second generation had a convertible, and the fastback would not have worked for a "targa" (the hoop would have been maybe 1" wide — not structurally sound). Showing it on an E-body is ridiculous — it had a convertible — why would anyone want this weird hybrid? The wraparound rear glass has zero to do with the rest of the styling of the E-body.
 
I appreciate the design and artistic talent BUT not digging it… especially the truck tires. To European for me.
