Here is a quick mock up, I think I still need to do a little work to the stance better, but getting there.

Those are some good ideas,

Here is the body clear coated

Made a rear spoiler for it, still have work to do on it.

G- nice build, I need to find a car to do in British Racing Green now

I was thinking about doing a foreign car build , thats kinda funny a CBP for abandoned CBP,s

That is one beautiful build , great job

I agree, amazing work there G

Ok so you have a lot more , but I was meaning for this CBP , you know what might look cool, do it in the green, but do the hood you got in like a flat or matt black, I think that would look very mean and cool. Yes i agree you should get some work done on Nicks car, before he gives you those fake tears next

I got my pair of sweat pants and sweater out , so I am all ready for winter , heck one could still wear shorts here right now. As for models, not much really changes.

Are the touch up bottles in a spray bottle or do you have to use them with a spray gun/airbrush?. Is highland metallic green the shade of green for the bullitt mustangs?. I take it you are going to finish the daytona before you start the mustang builds?. I agree the paint does look good, the pics hide a little of the flaws, its not smooth as glass now that it has dried more, but nothing a little wets sanding wont fix. I will see how well I get the clear coat to go on and maybe I can skip that step, I dont really like doing it, and I feel its only worth it for show/contest builds. I took another pick of the wheels and tires, I stripped the chrome off before I really started doing research on the knight rider version and what seems to be it has chrome wheels , lucky for me I just happen to have a can of chrome spray from rustolem, its not perfect but close. P.S. Olskool- you got six stangs waiting for you to start working on them, crack one of those babys open, you know you want to

I had a little issues with the paint, so I decided strip and start over again, so it is repainted, going to clear coat it in the next day. Also got a little bit of work done on the chassis.

Here is what I have got done so far

I just got done doing the final wet coat( so I hope), and have been doing some work on the engine and interior. I need make a darker shade of red for some of the interior too. I will get some pics posted soon.

Well I am not sure if I am ever going to get this one finished, I have been having nothing but problems getting it painted. Now I know its not all my fault is I have been trying to use kyrlon yellow and I have been building up the layers with light coats. when I go to do the wet coat it craze's I think is the term. So this is the fifth time I have had to strip it. I have almost gone thru the entire can of paint. I do have some tamyia yellow, but I dont know if there is enough in the can to do one more paint job. I could use a different color but I would have to take a part the chassis and repaint it as well and I dont want to do that. :banghead: This is why I only use krylon very rare now. I like that shade of yellow that it is, for some reason I have been having problems painting all the sudden.

Thanks, I still need to do one coat but its getting their again. I am doing some research on the 2008 knight rider mustang, and the interior pic I posted is from the pilot version. This is the series version interior, its more stock, and thus I am going to go with this one.

In no way do I want my first car back, it was a mid 60's mercury I think, It was in 1998 that i got it, and it was a pile dog stuff, if any one has heard Adam Sandlers song POS car, that was my car. The front frame was cracked, the brakes really didnt work, I had to use a zippo at night to see how fast I was going , the steering wheel had more play then a record did( wasnt my first choice of word to use ). My second car I would not mind getting back, it was a 84 olds cutlass, I had fun with that car, I remember the night I was able to get on the wire hub caps to come off. It was for the most part a good car. The day I got rid of it was when I was out looking at cars with a buddy, and the moment I pulled into the dealership's lot, up in smoke it went I wouldnt want my third car back either, I traded the up in smoke olds for a used ford tempo, it was the last year it was made, anyways things were good for the first two weeks, .I rear ended a pick up on the freeway, so i busted the front grill, and the left front headlight brackets . I used clear packing tap to secure the left front turn signal housing to headlamp housing, the headlight housing was then attached to the car using duck tape and rope. To aim the headlight I once again used clear packing tape over the headlight on the the hood. The hood latch was busted as well, but did not know tell a week or so later while driving and hood flies up and I could no longer see, after that the hood never would close very good. Well it keeps going down hill, one day while on the freeway, left front tire blows and takes the fender with it, so I went to a pull a part yard and got a fender close in color to my car. Well one night while at work ( worked security) had a friend with me, and I had to patrol two small strip malls, in back we would see how fast we could get shopping carts going(45mph) head on into a block wall. Well one of them bounce off the wall and into the right rear door , busting the door handle clean off. And then the car was broken into one night so I had no drivers side window, and at the same time when the car was driven faster then 55/60 MPH the fuel system would go out, so I would have to bring the car to stop and the shut it down before I could continue on my way. And then a few weeks after that it got repossessed, I happily gave up the keys. Sorry for that being so long

you mean other CBP, I know, thats why i looking for imput before I start another one

We could do a Ferrari CBP, thanks for your idea.

I did not even notice that, hmmm

Hey guys, well while being on another model forum ( from the UK), It got me thinking about doing a forigen car build or a excoita car build or something along those lines. what i am thinking is like a one make only build for one of them. Another idea I was thinking about was doing one for next year that every month will be a different subject and maybe make a contest or something, just throwing these ideas out there. If any one is interested or has an idea please share, I am thinking of starting it after the holidays , I dont need to add another build at the moment Update- If you have an Idea list it, then after there are enough of them I am thinking of doing a vote on them.

Not at all, you are welcome to join, just let me know what you are building so I can add you to list.

I dont think I have, but do get irritated sometimes when I have problems, mostly when it comes to painting , and then I am pissy for a while.

So I worked my magic and have re painted it, am going to sand the body a little then give in more wet coat.

I have a 68 RR that I have not started on, and I have been thinking doing the Charger from the TV show Burn notice
