S. Svendsen Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Just finished building this replica of the '72 Blue Max Mustang. I used the Model King re-issue of the old MPC Mustang and swapped the decals for a set from Slixx. More pics and details of the build can be found at the link. http://homepage.mac.com/ssven5/Sites/Svens...ax_mustang.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotRodaSaurus Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Another from the classic funny years. I remember reading a feature in Hot Rod, how you would cheer for your favourite. Be it driver, or if you owned a ford you cheered the Mustangs, if dad drove a Chevy it might be the Vega's you rooted for or the Cuda's etc. The fact that most ran a Chrysler derived mill was of no real importance. In the UK a good Funny car field consisted of around a dozen cars total, so we just cheered whoever ran I have this in my stash so i'll build this one one day Thanks, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Nice clean work! I actually had a dream about this model kit last night while laying in bed. I guess I was trying to figure out what kit to start next. Anyway, beautiful build. Clean work and a nice model. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billd64 Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 thanks; i have been told that, but the kit was a limited run kit, and im looking for just the tires and rims to it, not a whole kits, i would like to finish the kits i have now I have two AMT SCHLITZ funny cars, both bought on ebay, and ,arked as sealed kits but not when i got them, hence missing parts bill d.

RyanSilva Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Firefighter was not that limited though, theres plenty out there to warrant a low price. ebay is the only place i have seen these tires for around 5 bucks a pair...as some sellers sell them seperate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
