Got some base color on and the body with the completed chassis for the last test fit. wheels are just sitting under it thanks for looking and questions or comments welcome jason

Cesar, ive never thought about it honestly ill keep that in mind. That 67 mustang in your photobucket has a nice mustang II type suspension is that all scratchbuilt? It looks like a nice WIP jason

yes everything is painted the only addition is the foil on the heat Shields for the exhaust Jason

Body in primer and bodywork started thanks for looking and questions or comments welcome jason

Matt T, thank you the wheels and tires are from Geronimo works and were orderd through strada sports. nice fotki album I like The Crimson Coffin of yours Jason

Thanks Chris for your comments. And I know how you feel mustangs are one of my favorite cars as well. I own two 1:1's at the moment. Jason

New update chassis completed and detailed thanks for looking and questions or comments welcome jason

time for a much needed update. this project has come a long way since the last post i just havent had a chance to post :-) it was finished in time for the gearz entry date but didnt get it entered as I fought with sizing issues on the pics and ran out of time. Anyway, on to the progress Opened the doors and trunk. The black plastic in the engine bay is the raised wheel Wells raised wheel Wells and driveshaft tunnel Painted the wheels with alclaid. For my first attempt im happy with the results. Drilled out crossmember thanks for looking and questions or comments welcome jason

hench, on this particular build the sharp line where the flare meets the body is intentional. it will be cleanned up a little but wont be filled. but normally i use the tamyia putty or automotive glazing putty to blend in flares. just keep in mind when you do flares or a widebody to build as much as possible with styrene. this makes your bodywork little to none also gives you a better product and something that wont crack overtime

john- the mustang will be metallic red, flat black and carbon fiber thanks- jason

got a lot of progress done in this project. to get the ride height where i wanted it i raised the wheel wells and wheel well openings about 1 1/2 to 2 scale inches. before the drop.... wheelwell modifications after the raised wheel wells, lowerd suspension and fender flares and the spoiler rear spoiler with front splitter. thanks for looking and questions or comments welcome jason

james, thanks for the comment! and the paint is aerosol vht flat blue jason

ok so here is a small update. the temp sensor and wire is in also the hoses with hose clamps amd belt system is on. here is the engine bay with the brake lines from the master cylinder to the abs controller. also both a/c lines with the fill tube and fitting cap. there is also a small body harness. and with the engine set in place with body in place i plan on doing the heater hoses, battary harness, and wheel wells tonight. thanks for looking and questions or comments welcome jason

Eric, the fuel injection harness is made from 32 gauge wire and the wire harness loom is made from 24 gauge wire wrapped with the 32 gauge wire then it was all painted semi-gloss black. this is my first attempt at detailing a newer car so it took some time but im happy with the outcome thanks for the comment :-) jason
