Cool - I like it. Sort of like what the Mustang would have been if it was an Aussie car made by Chrysler in the early 70s! Razz

No it is an old one that is being rebuilt. It is a Revell 69 Cobra Jet, same kit as your maroon one you built. The purple custom is a 70 Boss 429. I have about 30 Mustangs, built, still in box and rebuilds of ones i built back last century when i was a glue bomber Laughing. Does this make me a collector or a hoarder?

I like the look of this, very interesting idea, but when you see it in the engine bay it looks right at home.

That's quite an engine swap! I recall Chrysler's E49 Charger being able to whip Falcon GT V8's and Monaro V8's in the acceleration stakes with its 4.3 litre inline six Hemi, so what might Ford's 4.0 litre inline six have been capable of?

An inspired and unique model - well done so far.

Both sets are `97 Mustang. The first set are Cobra, and the other are GT. I am using the Cobra wheels on this.
