Beautiful

Your on to something here..........

They look great, I’m glad someone’s getting something done.

Looks nice!

I’ve had great service from Hart’s parts. Your builds are amazing by the way!

Looking really nice so far. Don’t get discouraged, did you tint the wheels with smoke?

Looks great

Thanks for the comments everyone. I went back and forth on the class this thing would run in. Seemed like with stock suspension and just two four barrel carbs it would fall into a lower class. I wanted to do it as a D/G but I couldn’t find a D in my decal stash. The A and B Cars all seemed to have straight axles under the front end.

I’ve grown to dislike this kit.....I started this build back in 2013, failed paint job, threw into the purple pond and it attacked the plastic. Wrinkled the plastic, I did lots of body work removing the wrinkles and the chrome trim channels in the body. I added a parts box hood scoop. I finally got it painted custom mix of Testors small bottle yellow and white, and added the Johan decals. I removed the back seat and added a parts box roll bar. The front seats are from the Revell 65 Malibu kit, a parts box steering wheel, shifter, and tachometer. The engine is a Revell Parts Pack Ford 427 and 4 speed transmission. Parts box wheels, slicks and traction bars finished out the bottom. Maybe it was me, but nothing wanted to fit. The back glass is a short shot not fitting the c pillar. This thing has been thrown back into the box more times than I can count. Yes I know the hood emblem is crooked, nothing a piece of tape can’t fix. I guess it captures what I started to accomplish, an early 1964ish home built budget race car. As always comments questions and criticism welcome.

Thanks for the info, I can’t wait to see more!

One of the best builds I’ve seen of this kit. Great job!

Amazing as usual, Clay. It looks great. I noticed the Mission Models paint, can you comment on them, Ive seen this paint before just haven’t tried it .thanks.

Could you be more specific on which Shelby Mustang kit your using? Thanks.

Found one more pic, I different angle.
