Basically box stock. Different wheels and hood scoop. Homemade decals. Two tone paint.

Comments welcome!

Very nice paint.  Is that the kit engine?  That may ba a 390 or 428..  I know MPC and AMT incorrectly put Boss 429 engines in 71-73 Mustang kits.  The last year for the Boss 429 was 1970 but I like your concept as I always thought putting the Shotgun engine in a larger Ford made more sense.

I really like the theme of this build. Of course it is great looking and cleanly finished. Thinking back to the "Total Performance" era of Ford makes you almost wonder why they didn't offer such a model.
